This makeover was for the latest video on Hyeri‘S YouTube channel, where she aimed to recreate Karina’s look in aespa’s new music video, “Whiplash.” Since the two are close friends in real life, Hyeri boasted that she met Karina the day before and even borrowed the headband she originally wore in the music video.

Makeup artist Lee Myung Sunwho works with popular girl groups like BLACKPINK, THE SSERAFIMAND MEOVVtook care of Hyeri’s makeup transformation into Karina. She replicated the “Whiplash” look with immense attention to detail, making Hyeri joke, “Today I am really Hyerina. It’s not a joke. If I showed up at a music show, people would think there were two Karinas!”

After completing the transformation, Hyeri shared photos of herself with Karina, who was stunned.
