Not so surprising link between the two halves of this hobby

Sooo... For a frustrating while now I noticed that whenever people do a custom/group order in the 1/6 action figure hobby (unfortunately home of many painfully insecure men who cry "they're not dollies honest!") they tend to get the clothes from a mysterious person/company called Yunsil... And I think I've finally worked out who on earth they are (in the loosest sense).
So their action figure stuff is all here (and it's crazy impressive and almost justifies the extortionate pricetags demanded for these sets... almost *Cries* ...the going rate is well into the triple figures for these sets):

...But they also have these sites:
http://treedesign.kr/
http://obraentree.com/front/php/category.php?cate_no=4
http://www.tplant.net/front/php/category.php?cate_no=12
Now my Korean is absolutely non-existant but I'm guessing they're a tailor of some repute in the bjd world too? (I've just managed to completely miss their existence these past few years.) Now honestly I should have pegged that given the amount of (usually ignored and shunned) overlap between these two halves of the hobby that would extend to the business side of things too but I thought it was interesting enough to share!
(...And yes utterly terribly... And painfully when you take into account the likely cost this thing will command I am seriously attempting to work out how to fund/actually ask for a commissioned outfit from these guys... Mr B needs his perfectly tailored suits, in both scales...)
