Questions about Vertex painting

[user_86a33cc9369de2be457442450d93210c7400f9b11e3526933a2dd1 (지나가는뱅크씨)]

Hello, I am studying 3D environment modeling.
I saw a video about Vertex paint.
In the video, three static meshes using the same material are edited with different masks.
How is this possible?

I think, Static meshes using the same UV map (and material) should show the same results.

If I paint one of those 3 meshes, doesn’t the other mesh get painted at the same time?

Should I replicate static mesh and materials 2 times in my content browser?

Please help me!

Not with vertex painting

Nope

Also, nope

Here’s your proof

I only painted the right-hand one. They are copies of the same mesh.

Yes, they have the same UV map, but the painting only happened on one mesh.
