Recreating EXO Baekhyun's Iconic Seogadae Makeup Look

Korean beauty bloggers are actively recreating and analyzing EXO Baekhyun's makeup from the Seogadae (Seoul Music Awards). This particular look, originating from 2014, continues to inspire makeup enthusiasts due to its distinctive style and the idol's influence.

The key characteristics of this "Seogadae makeup" include a smudged black eyeliner applied under the pupil and a smoky effect in the under-eye triangular zone, aiming to create a "puppy-like" eye shape. Some interpretations also incorporate gray contact lenses and a "burgundy vampire" aesthetic, as suggested by various recreations.

Bloggers attempting this look often note the challenges of replicating it accurately, especially when applying it to different eye shapes or comparing it to retouched idol photos. Despite the difficulty, many find the process engaging and believe that practice leads to improved skill in achieving the desired idol-inspired style.
