[theqoo] For girl groups it’s ‘Jang-Ka-Sull,’ and for boy groups it’s ‘Shin-Won-Ho'… the visual lineage of 5th-gen male idols

 

If 4th-gen girl group visuals are summed up by ‘Jang-Ka-Sull’—IVE’s Jang Wonyoung, aespa’s Karina, and NMIXX’s Sullyoon—then in the 5th-gen boy group scene, ‘Shin-Won-Ho’ is carrying that legacy.

TWS’s Shinyu, RIIZE’s Wonbin, and CORTIS’s Keonho are reshaping the global K-pop scene with their standout visuals and solid skills.

Shinyu with model-like proportions, Wonbin as SM’s all-rounder, and Keonho—a former swimmer—are all pulling insane buzz and basically dominating 5th-gen fandoms right now.

Original post: here

1. Shouldn’t Keonho be grouped with the next gen instead? He’s a 2009 liner

2. Other than having a small face, I honestly don’t get the hype with Shinyu… why do people keep saying he’s so handsome?

3. Since there’s no HYBE ‘princess’ in Jang-Ka-Sull, they’re really forcing one into the boy group version huh

4. I'm so sick of all this ‘height’ and ‘physique’ talk… someone just post a tall, handsome male idol and get it trending already

5. Didn’t really know much about the HYBE document controversy, but looks like they used it for media play like this… that’s honestly so lame

6. I’d heard the names of the two on the left, but the one on the right is honestly the most handsome

7. But honestly, I’m curious who the people judging those idols’ visuals even stan… like what kind of god-tier faces are they into?

8. If you’ve got eyes, you can tell they’re handsome.. are we not even allowed to say that now?

9. Guess the guy on the right is the famous one—seeing a lot of people saying they like him hereㅋㅋㅋ It’s my first time seeing him tho, I only know Wonbinㅋ

10. I only thought of PD Shin Won-ho so I had to rub my eyes and click in, this man hasn’t dropped a new project in years. But wait, isn’t there actually an idol named Shin Won-ho too? I feel like I saw that while searching before
