The OP (Original Poster) pointed out what appeared to be an Exoplanet baseball jersey in the background. The EXO members often wore these jerseys.
Many multi-fans were initially excited to see the photo, wondering if an EXO-L was the set designer. Yet, some questioned the authenticity.

Fans realized the viral post was edited by looking at the original post from the official SEVENTEEN social media account.
The baseball jersey had an entirely different logo, not Exoplanet.
