Halloween is almost here, and we know you have at least one or two costume parties to attend. We also know that finding the perfect costume is a challenge. Precisely for that reason, we decided to help our lovely ATINY by bringing you some music videos by the pirates of K-Pop, a.k.a. ATEEZ, to inspire you for THPloween 2026.
‘BAD’
There was no other option for the first MV of this list except for ‘BAD.’ This super colorful MV offers many options to inspire your Halloween costume for 2026. From wearing a white tank top, jeans and golden chains like Mingi or a pink and purple suit with sunglasses like Seonghwa, there’s something for every taste. You could even take inspiration from Chase Infiniti’s iconic polka dot dress. Maybe your vibe is more Hongjoong’s golden suit jacket or San’s sparkly shirt; we love those too.
‘BOUNCY (K-HOT CHILLI PEPPERS)’
Cowboys, bikers, and boxers. There’s really something for everyone in the ‘BOUNCY’ MV. If you have a cowboy hat, an embroidered shirt, and leather pants, you’re suddenly Hongjoong dancing in front of the fire. Or you and a friend can dress up as Wooyoung and San in the boxing ring. All you need is a tank top for San and a shirt with bold patterns and some fake dollar bills for Wooyoung. Or maybe you could go for the leather jackets and fingerless gloves Seonghwa and Yeosang are wearing. Or the jumpsuits Jongho and Yunho turned iconic. Also, if you can find a fringed jacket and a big cowboy hat, you have the obligation of recreating Mingi’s iconic rap part.
‘Ice On My Teeth’
Whoever said all-black can’t be iconic has never watched the ‘Ice On My Teeth’ MV. From the suit and tennis racket Yunho shows up in in the very first scene to the black choker and deep cut shirt we haven’t recovered from seeing Yeosang wear, if your closet is mostly made up of black items, then this is the perfect music video to get inspiration. We are also huge fans of Hongjoong and San’s fur coats. They are great options and will also keep you warm in the chilly fall weather.
‘WORK’
Colorful jackets, various hat sizes, some shovels, and someone carrying a flute. Boom, you and your friends are dressed as ATEEZ in the first scene of the ‘WORK‘ MV. But the fun part about this one is that it also gives you even more options later on. Wear an apron and a baseball cap, and suddenly, you’re Yunho. Wear a white suit, a hat, and a gold and red tie with some flags tied to your back, and you’re Seonghwa riding an ostrich.
If you like the cowboy idea but prefer a black sleeveless top, then you can go as San. One of our faves from this MV, though, has got to be Wooyoung as a flamenco dancer in that teal shirt with a red flower pinned to it (and waving money around as he loves to do). We also have to mention Yeosang’s leather jacket and, of course, Mingi’s iconic purple coat and top hat.
‘THANXX’
‘THANKXX’ served us many ideas on how to dress for Halloween. Starting off with one of our faves: white hair Hongjoong in a beret. If you’re more of a plaid fan, you could also draw inspiration from San in a tank top or Yeosang‘s jacket in front of the school bus. And once again, we have to mention Mingi in purple. Every time he shows up like that we know it’ll be fire!
This time, if you want to dress up like him, all you need is a purple shirt, jeans full of patches and some big sunglasses to give off the rapper vibes we know and love. And if you’re looking for a group costume, the black shirts and orange cargo pants they wear for the dance portion in front of the cars is a great option because despite being similar, no two members wear exactly the same thing, and that’s what makes it interesting.
‘WONDERLAND’
Fur coat Hongjoong makes another appearance, and we are once again obsessed with it (and begging for someone to use him as inspiration.) Or if you have a red sweater vest you haven’t worn in a while, you could maybe pair it with a white shirt and a padlock necklace to go as Seonghwa. Speaking of red, if you happen to have red hair, then you have to wear one of Mingi’s outfits from this MV. Those are the rules. We are also huge fans of Wooyoung’s puffy jacket wrapped in chains.
‘Deja Vu’
Another great contender for the group costume idea: for this one, you and your friends will mostly need black and blue shirts that suit your individual styles and leather pants. We love our ATEEZ boys in leather pants in this house. We are especially fond of the shirts worn by Yeosang and Seonghwa in the beginning of this MV; the different cuts and styles are so interesting you can’t help but stare. Speaking of can’t help but stare, Jongho in a leather jacket and a huge chain around his neck is one for the books (and the Halloween parties, if you ask us).
‘HALAZIA’
Did you really think Halateez wouldn’t make this list? Please! We could never pass up the opportunity to take inspiration from one of our favorite parts of ATEEZ‘s lore. Set in the dystopian Strictland, ‘HALAZIA‘ brings a much darker version of the members that we think fits the Halloween vibe perfectly. With the hooded capes and outfits that look straight out of a sci-fi movie during the dance portions, this MV is pure gold when it comes to costume inspiration. Special shout out to Mingi’s all black outfit when he’s rapping. And Yeosang’s outfit in front of the scarecrow with all the chains and necklaces has to be one of our favorite looks on him.
‘Guerrilla’
ATEEZ as revolution leaders? Sign us up! And they look good while doing it too. The black jumpsuits from the beginning are already a great inspiration, but our personal favorites are the ones after that. Yeosang dressed as a hacker with those gloves? Perfection! Speaking of gloves, that one Mingi outfit with the glove and the goggles on his head has lived in our minds rent-free since we first saw it. And if you really want to commit to the bit, take a flag like the ones from the MV along with you.
‘Adrenaline’
We could’ve included ‘Adrenaline‘ on this list purely because of Hongjoong in an eyepatch. That alone would make for a great Halloween costume. But the truth is that there are several different moments that could be used for inspiration in this MV. Those desert outfits are all great as well, and if you feel like dressing up in them, just remember to add the details that make all the difference. Like the scar on San’s eyebrow or the burn marks on Seonghwa’s arm. Speaking of Seonghwa, that coat with the glasses? Another one we need at least one ATINY to copy. It’s a matter of survival.
We could spend all day here talking about ATEEZ-inspired Halloween costumes because every single one of their MVs could serve as inspiration. That’s what happens when your lore is so interesting and your music videos reflect that. But we chose ten of them just to get you started.
Now we want to know how you’ll be dressing for Halloween this year. Tell us by finding us on our socials @thehoneypop, Facebook or Instagram, and let’s have a chat!
