It’s all because of the editing.
NCT DREAM‘s recent conceptual photos have come under significant criticism.
Recently, NCT DREAM teased their comeback with their next album DREAM LANDSCAPE. On October 30 (KST), a new set of concept photos were released that, once again, showcased the diversity of the group.
Along with some group photos, they also shared solo shots of the members, which matched the initial photos.
Although all the members looked beautiful, netizens criticized the editing of the photos. After they were posted on several forums on Reddit, many fans pointed out how much whitewashing was done on the members, which netizens pointed out made the idols look much paler than they are in real life.

Many even thought the members were unrecognizable.

Whitewashing is something that netizens have always criticized K-Pop agencies for.
