“C*mvity…?” K-Pop Fans Get Grossed Out By New Unhinged Concept Photos
Member Minhee, noting that he was first in line to go, admitted that he, too, was flabbergasted and wanted to go home.
Still, Minhee recalled laughing a lot on the set, reassuring the fans that it wasn’t a terrible experience.
Remember when I talked about having laughed a lot on set during one of the schedules? It was for the concept photos that were revealed. I was the first one to shoot. I swear, I was the most flabbergasted out of all of us. And… How did I feel about it? I just wanted to go home real bad.

Fellow CRAVITY member Seongmin, on the other hand, had good fun. For him, the experimental photo shoot was a chance to grow—something he had been wanting to do since his debut.
The concept photos were revealed today! I still remember the shoot so clearly. It was like sensory play. I can’t believe I got to be covered in slime from head to toe?! It was so fun. I got a lot of compliments, too. I’ve always thought since debut that I wanted to try a lot of different things. This definitely felt like growth, haha.

Member Taeyoung understood the divided reactions…
…and asked that his fans be on the lookout for other content, less gooey.
The concept photos were something else, huh? What did you think about them? I was so curious to know how you all would react to these photos once they were released. It’s definitely experimental. My vibe was like, ‘I don’t know, I just got here.’ Of course, we have prettier stuff, too. Those weren’t meant to be aesthetic, so I understand how the reactions could definitely be divided.
