“Big 3” K-Pop Group’s Visuals Hit With Brutal Backlash After No-Makeup Selfie

“Big 3” SM Entertainment group NCT WISH has been hit with brutal backlash for their visuals after posting an unfiltered selfie without makeup.

Recently, NCT WISH are in Paris for the K-EXPO INKIGAYO, and on social media, they shared a photo of themselves in front of the Eiffel Tower.

Yet, while fans loved a glimpse into the members’ free time, the tweet was full of malicious comments about their visuals, with some hitting back at the members for going out and posting photos without makeup, even saying that fans wanted to see them looking good and asking for the photo to be deleted.

탈코 상태로 찍어봤자 득되는거 없고 팬들 환상 자꾸 깨져서 탈빠만 심해진다는거 맞말임 헤어 메이크업 하나도 안 된 상태에 얼굴도 전부 이상하게 나왔는데 이걸 왜 올림..? 팬들이 보고싶은건 엔시티 위시의 폼 좋은 얼굴이지 그냥 파리 인증샷이 아닌데 뭐가 중요한지 전혀 모르는것같음

It’s true that there’s nothing to gain from posting photos like this with no styling, and all it does is keep shattering fans’ fantasies and make more people lose interest. Their hair and makeup weren’t done at all, and everyone came out looking weird, so why upload this…? What fans want to see is NCT WISH looking their best, not just some proof-shot that they were in Paris. It feels like they have no idea what’s actually important.

姐妹劝删，这不是我们nctwish吧？nctwish长得比较呆萌一点，可爱一点，图里这几个人完全就是流浪汉啊

Delete this sis, this is not our NCT WISH, right? NCT WISH look a bit more adorkable and cute. The people in this photo totally look like homeless people.
