In response to South Korea's government's power-saving campaign, South Korean women have taken to wearing refrigerator pants.
The South Korean government had earlier shut down air conditioners at 19,000 public organizations. Like most countries in East Asia, South Korea is facing a massive heat wave with all-time record high temperatures.
Refrigerator pants are made from wrinkle-free polyester fabrics and are today the most purchased clothing items in shopping malls.
Seung-won Lee, a representative for Coco Marlene, South Korea's largest online pants and leggings store says” We started seeing the trend last summer, and this summer, around 70% of our sales are coming from these refrigerator pants".
Suzy Kim, a 30 years old South Korean woman claims "They're airy and don't stick and I also like the comfortable elastic waist".
