Jeans

Trousers made of sturdy denim. Makers such as Levi's popularized them as workwear for mines and labor sites in the late 19th century, after which they became everyday clothing.
The tiny pocket on the right front of Jeans isn't decorative — it's a "watch pocket" designed in the 1870s by Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis to securely hold a pocket watch, back when wristwatches weren't yet common.

Original Levi's jeans had a rivet at the crotch. In 1941, the US government ordered it removed to conserve metal for the war, but it never came back after the war ended. Rumor has it the real reason was cowboys complaining the rivet got scorching hot when they sat by a campfire.

The girl group NewJeans carries two overlapping meanings. One: like the jeans each generation reinvents, they aim to be a timeless icon. The other: a homophone of "new genes," signaling a fresh new generation of K-pop.
