P’Abl did you know that Opp Weerapong who played Touch in SCOY debuted in a kpop group called THE7? Because I didn’t until I spotted him in a tiktok. No one in the comments section recognized him from the drama though. Maybe that’s for the best…
I did not know this.
I did wonder where he'd gone, there is no way Thailand would just let that boy fade out of the industry. I was expecting him to lead a new pulp of some kind.
I saw THE7 bouncing around my Kpop YouTube but I'm exhausted by 4th Gen these days so I didn't bother to watch (not that I would have recognized him).
Now, of course, I will go investigate.
Given what happened with Boys Planet I don't think there is that much of a stigma anymore (in Korean production houses) on having done BL. I mean Mnet was GUNNING for Kim Ji Woong and he'd done 2 BLs and sort of even cobranded.
He pretty, but he not that pretty (if cultural taboo was still set firmly against him).
Like all things in Hallyu I think we can blame the wave of 2nd & 3rd gens doing BL and paving the way to production house acceptance tolerance.
I'm happy for Opp, he has the right look and I hope he has the talent to carry the group. 4th Gen Kpop needs all the outside blood it can get, Korea seems to have throughly tapped their own base if recent survival shows are anything to go by.
Ohh, I haven't had my coffee yet. I am very salty.
I suppose I should add Opp to the Kpop idol tracking roster.
More about my love for Opp's character in SCOY, and me losing my ever-loving mind over Touch & Daisy here:

Jeff Satur Black Tie Fashion Breakdown
I can do all things through spite, which sustains me.
I love the fashion in Black Tie. Jeff's really living his best Valentino life, and I wanted to break down what I could determine. Granted, his coats almost all seem to be custom, and while I worked in the industry it was not with Valentino, so I would hesitate to guess. (I mean, I will if you want, my DMs are open). But everything else I could more or less find on the website and I thought, why not? My besty already got slapped with it, why should you guys escape?
Let's Do This.

Author's Notes: (Image from Jeff's Instagram)
The finale red look seems to have at least 2 iterations, the heavier solid piece that may involve a tie (social media) and the lighter almost-chiffon that Jeff got rained on in the MV.
Author's Note: At least one of the Valentie ties in the opening/secondary look appears to have been customized (embroidery) per social media images (Jeff's Insta) rendering it priceless. (He does wear alternate Valentie Ties in appearances that do NOT appear to be embroidered with JS).
Not to be all The Devil Wears Prada about it but:
"Are you wearing the-?"
"The Valentino Feather Boots? Yes, I am."
p.s. hi @markmybirds. love you marmar.
