they have different stylists and makeup. it looks like kaibaek have the same, taeyong and mark have the same, ten and lucas have the same, and taemin is mixed. so it’s actually possible they brought their own stylists from their og groups. i’ll look at other albums. https://twitter.com/minseoklotto/status/1293225516976107520

wow okay so when i look at obsession the credited stylist is kim wook, the same as credited for kaibaek in superm. so yes exo brought their own stylist for the boys going into superm.

it’s the same with nct 127! mark and taeyong brought with them their 127 stylist. i don’t have a wayv album but we can assume it’s the same deal.

so it looks like each boy has their own groups stylist. proving that it’s sm basically. inchresting.

it’s still absolutely ridiculous that baek, taemin, and kai have such bare minimum looks. i have to wonder if a creative director requested it...

confirmed same for wayv! https://twitter.com/wdzhyuk/status/1293233359624318982?s=21 https://twitter.com/wdzhyuk/status/1293233359624318982

to be clear this is obviously the old album so it may not be true with the current album.

what this proves is that the kaibaek mistreatment is most likely a choice made by sm. they’re the ones controlling the overall visual direction and they chose to give exo the bare minimum.
