Besides Suzy, she has also worked with JYP girl group TWICE on beauty on a few different occasions and projects, including its mini album YES or YES and their recent Allure Korea cover.

Pony is probably the most famous Korean makeup artist, so obviously, this list wouldn’t be complete without her. Her real name is Hye-Min Park, and nowadays, most people know her through her viral makeup tutorial videos on YouTube, and as a beauty mogul with the eponymous makeup brand Pony Effect. But she actually worked closely with CL of the iconic girl group 2NE1 in the past.

Since working with Tiffany Young on her “Born Again” music video earlier this year, Suzie K has gone on to create beautiful looks for the singer’s romantic “Lips on Lips” visual and also on her look in the 2019 iHeartRadio Music where Tiffany won the Best Solo Breakout award.

Last but definitely not least, Min-Ah Park. She has been working as HyunA‘s makeup artist since the artist’s Cube days before she eventually joined the new entertainment agency P NATION in early 2019. She is responsible for the singer’s signature sultry-meets-grungy makeup looks, typically made up of statement-making lip colors like bright red and fuchsia, as well as smudgy eyeliner and spidery lashes.
