But nothing screams Christmas season more than a cheesy, feel good holiday rom-com. While these movies might seem cliché, they have the ability to move your heart and stir up the holiday spirit. With their bright, uplifting personalities and side-splitting humor, many idols would be the perfect fit for a holiday film. Here are 7 K-Pop idols we would absolutely love to see star in a cheesy Christmas rom-com!
1. TREASURE’s Choi HyunSuk
On stage, HyunSuk is a charismatic rapper and one of TREASURE’s reliable leaders. But when he’s not performing, he exudes a youthful innocence that gives complete maknae vibes. He could totally star in the role of a high school student navigating first love, while figuring out the meaning of Christmas. We would love to accompany HyunSuk’s character on a romantic holiday journey.
2. P1Harmony’s KeeHo
Many fans know that KeeHo embodies peak Gen Z energy. During live streams, his comments leave a big impact and can often leave you breathless from laughing. With his sense of humor, he could definitely nail the comedy in holiday rom-com. While he might be known for his funny personality, he has shown that he can be sexy and charismatic too. KeeHo, the comedic relief and charming main lead — what a deadly combo.
3. WEi’s Kim YoHan
If the holiday season is all about joy and good cheer, then Kim YoHan definitely brings all of that and more! He’s captured the hearts of thousands with his boyish good looks and lovely charms. YoHan would be excellent as the main lead and long-time crush. Much like in real life, his character would provide an abundance of warmth that’s necessary during these colder months.
4. NCT’s Mark
Mark Lee has covered every position from rapper, dancer, to even vocalist. He’s a complete all-rounder, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if one day he adds actor to that list as well. The world-renowned idol could star in a role that shows off his swoon-worthy guitar skills. Could you imagine Mark sitting around the campfire in the snow, playing the guitar, accompanied by his sweet vocals? We need this holiday rom-com out ASAP!
5. DKZ’s JaeChan
Since his debut in 2019, JaeChan has steadily been building up his resume as an actor, leveling up his performance with each new role. With the success of the BL web drama, “Semantic Error”, the idol singer has shown that he can adapt to any challenge. We can definitely see a cheesy BL holiday rom-com with JaeChan as one of the main leads. With his experience, he can definitely nail the role with his eyes closed.
6. GOT7’s Jackson Wang
Jackson is a gifted variety genius. It helps that he has witty humor and a loveable personality. He sets the mood wherever he goes and everyone around him always seems to be in good spirits. While he is comedic gold, the global superstar knows when to be serious and sincere. If he were to star in a Christmas rom-com, it would be heavy on both the cheesy romance and side-splitting comedy. With that being said, we’re waiting for Netflix to release a holiday movie featuring Jackson Wang.
7. ASTRO’s Cha EunWoo
This list wouldn’t be complete without Cha EunWoo. The idol heartthrob has consistently shown his acting talents through various roles. He has also shown how good he looks in a sweater and other winter gear. So he would be more than perfect for a cheesy Christmas movie. We can imagine one of the scenes now: EunWoo and the female lead confess their feelings on Christmas Eve. Now, a confession from Cha EunWoo would make an amazing Christmas gift.
