KATSEYE’s Yoonchae Reveals Her Everyday Getting Ready Routine | Beauty Secrets | Vogue
Yoonchae of KATSEYE sat down in a room at The Mercer Hotel in New York, worked through her skin care and makeup, and talked the whole way. Half a day later, her episode of Beauty Secrets had passed 700,000 views. A new Vogue video usually ends its entire first day near 30,000.
The description lays out what she covers. She talks about growing up with acne and about how she arrived at her signature mix of eyeliner and eyeshadow. She also explains how her makeup changed after she moved from Korea to the United States, a shift her friends spotted right away. She credits her sister as her first beauty guru. She would also like to try aegyo-sal, the Korean trick of drawing a soft puff under the eyes, for KATSEYE, though she admits it is not quite the group's style. The product list leans Korean, from Anua and Round Lab to a Clio pencil liner.
KATSEYE came out of The Debut: Dream Academy, the global audition show from HYBE and Geffen Records. Yoonchae is the group's only Korean member, which helps explain why the comments mix English and Hangul. The talk there is mostly about her voice. Viewers notice how fluent her English has become, enjoy the calm pace of her speech, and grin at the occasional bit of slang tucked into otherwise careful sentences.
It also stands well apart from the rest of Vogue's week. That week was mostly Paris fashion week arrivals, including Lara and Megan from KATSEYE at the Loewe show.
