Super Junior’s Leeteuk recently addressed the concerns about reusing outfits for SM group concerts, offering a thoughtful explanation to fans during a live broadcast.

On January 12, after wrapping up the 'SMTOWN LIVE 2025 [THE CULTURE, THE FUTURE] in SEOUL' performance at Seoul’s Gocheok Sky Dome, Leeteuk took to his YouTube channel, 'Teuk's Live', to clear the air about the outfits worn during the event.

During the stream, Leeteuk shared that the outfits worn at the concert were indeed reused, and explained the reasoning behind it.

“The stylists know that this concert didn’t have a huge production budget. When outfits are made, the cost comes from the activity budget, and there aren’t many SM concerts,” he revealed.

He continued, “The outfits I wore before were worn again. Please don’t criticize that. It costs hundreds of thousands of won to produce an outfit. Some of the costs are sponsored, but producing the outfits is still expensive. They’re made with exact measurements and are custom-designed for each member.”

Leeteuk emphasized that he was explaining all of this to avoid misunderstandings, as fans might not know the full situation.

"The stylists worked hard, but fans don’t see what’s going on behind the scenes. They might question if we’re really working, but the stylists can’t speak about it, so I’m here to explain so you all understand,” he said.

The Super Junior leader further explained the financial side, saying, “When outfits are made, the costs either go into the concert production or come from our activity budget. It’s too wasteful to only wear an outfit once after spending so much money on it, so that’s why we wear them again for other events”.

Leeteuk also reassured fans who were concerned about the reused outfits, stating, “We don’t wear the same outfit every day. The members’ makeup is always different, so it feels like a fresh look each time. Please understand that this was the situation with these outfits”.

Fans and netizens quickly responded, saying things like, “I understand now,” “It makes sense not to make outfits just for one event concert that’s not part of a tour,” and “Creating clothes just to wear once is damaging to the environment.” It looks like Leeteuk’s explanation helped clear up the confusion, and fans are showing more understanding.

Actor Jung Hae In is finding himself in a very awkward situation over his social media following, and even his good friend Lee Jong Suk has shared his thoughts on the matter!

Recently, Jung Hae In's personal social media account has been flooded with requests from fans to unfollow actor Kim Soo Hyun, who is facing serious personal issues and a legal dispute.

This controversy started after Kim Soo Hyun was edited out of the MBC variety show Good Day, and the public began questioning whether continuing to follow him on social media was a sign of support.

The situation became more complicated when fellow "88s" group member Im Si Wan unfollowed everyone on his list except his agency.

Fans quickly pressured Jung Hae In to do the same, but many felt this demand was unfair.

What really made headlines, though, was Lee Jong Suk’s unexpected reaction to the whole situation. Lee Jong Suk, who is close to Jung Hae In, seemed taken aback by the pressure his friend was under.

He was quoted saying, “It’s just a follow. People need to stop overreacting. Jung Hae In is his own person, and his choices should be respected.” His words have left fans in shock, especially since Lee Jong Suk is usually more private.

While Jung Hae In has done nothing wrong, he’s now caught in the middle of a social media frenzy. Should he unfollow Kim Soo Hyun just to please the public, or should he stand his ground and stay true to his friendships?

Fans are eagerly waiting to see how he will handle this situation, especially with Lee Jong Suk’s support behind him.
