| Netizens Spot JKT48’s Brave Pink and Hero Green Profile Changes Amid Nationwide Movement |
The resistance colours are everywhere right now—pink, green, and blue. Since the 17+8 people’s demands started trending, these shades have been adopted as symbols of bravery, unity, and remembrance.
Pink comes from the viral image of mothers in pink veils standing on the frontline.
Green represents the sacrifice of Affan Kurniawan (RIP Affan), the online driver who tragically lost his life during a clash. He wasn’t part of the protesters, he was just doing his job, delivering food to a customer. He was deliberately run over by the police with an armoured vehicle.
And Blue? It’s being called the colour of resilience and resistance.
Indonesian netizens have rushed to show their support by changing profile pictures and headers on social media to these colours—known online as brave pink, hero green, and resistance blue.
This week, JKT48 members also stepped in, updating their accounts with subtle but powerful statements. Here’s the line-up:
1. Christy
 |
She went minimalist—profile picture blacked out, while her X header radiates both green and pink.
3. Freya
 |
Straightforward and sharp—her profile pic now boldly wears the resistance colours.
1. Gita
 |
Creative as always, she uploaded a snap of es pisang ijo, perfectly matching the pink–green theme in a sweet, cheeky way.
2. Oniel
 |
Shared a kabesha photo with pink outfit vibes under green stage lights. A mix of idol flair and symbolic support.
Fiony
 |
Profile pic turned dark, header replaced with a Taylor Swift lyric snippet that fans say hits differently given the current mood.
Indira
 |
Dropped a link to IVE’s track “RESET”—which coincidentally (or not) mirrors the people’s call for a societal reset.
Michie
 |
Not only did she repaint her profile and header in pink, she also reminded followers multiple times to stay safe online and off.
Eli
 |
Posted a shot of the plushie Dumia—pink and green hues spot on. Cute, yet clearly intentional.
Jessi
 |
She too flipped her visuals to match the brave colours, making her stand among the most direct in supporting the wave.
Lyn & Amanda
 |
Both followed the route of dual signals—profile and header locked into resistance shades, a neat statement of solidarity.
Of course, it’s not just these ten—other members have also quietly made changes. But this collective gesture already caught fans’ eyes.
For many, it shows how JKT48 idols, often seen as just performers, are not disconnected from the atmosphere of their own beloved country.
