This series will explore some of the idols who have so much modeling potential that people who see them for the first time might confuse them with models instead of K-Pop idols. EXO’s Kai opened the series for us, followed by SF9’s Yoo TaeYang, CIX’s Bae JinYoung, ASTRO’s Cha EunWoo, Weki Meki’s Kim DoYeon, BLACKPINK’s Rosé, BTS’s V, NCT’s JaeHyun, MONSTA X’s HyungWon, EXO’s SeHun, Girls’ Generation’s YoonA, Red Velvet’s Joy, SunMi, HyunA, SF9’s RoWoon, SF9’s ZuHo, SEVENTEEN’s MinGyu, Apink’s Son NaEun, GOT7’s Mark Tuan, SEVENTEEN’s Jun, THE BOYZ’s HyunJae, WEi’s Kim YoHan, THE BOYZ’s JuYeon, THE BOYZ’s YoungHoon, and THE BOYZ’s SunWoo. Readers voted for SF9’s HwiYoung in our weekly poll (at the end of the article) to be featured this week. HwiYoung is famous as a member of the popular boy group SF9. SF9 is known for being a group where every single member is so handsome that they can be considered a visual. HwiYoung is no exception to that rule. Firstly, HwiYoung has a unique look and beautiful facial structure with high cheekbones. His eyebrows act as an accent to his facial structure. That beauty was especially highlighted in his campaign for MAC Cosmetics where he got to show off his ability to pull off bright lipstick. Let’s take a pause… We need a whole moment to appreciate long-haired model HwiYoung. HwiYoung is always gorgeous but there’s something about his long locks that especially made him look like a supermodel ready to take the runway by storm.
HwiYoung also has a fit physique that easily makes him a candidate to be on the cover of publications such as Men’s Health Magazine. Hopefully, he can get some deals with sportswear brands soon, too. HwiYoung gives off such model vibes that even his behind-the-scenes photos seem like the final product. If you knew nothing about K-Pop or SF9, HwiYoung would definitely seem like a model at first glance. Do you agree? Are there any idols that you would like to see in this series?
