In 2017, Pann, an online forum in South Korea that's managed by a web portal called NATE, made a list of idols who meet the golden ratio beauty standards! The decision was made by surgeons and dentists who worked with Pann in articulating the list.
If you aren't familiar with it yet, the Golden Ratio of Nature is scientifically explained as mathematics in nature. It tells the patterns we see in our environment, which makes it visually pleasing. Plastic surgeons mapped out these idol's facial proportions and structure then geometrically measured the results to compare it to the golden ratio. Here are the top 8 idols who belong to an exclusive list of perfection!
1. Red Velvet's Irene
Of course, Red Velvet's leader and eldest member naturally belong in this list. Irene is fondly called a visual goddess by her fans and is known to drive netizens crazy with her ethereal beauty during award season or even just seeing her in public, and it's understandable why. It's because of her perfectly aligned facial structure.
2. BTS's Jin
The eldest member of the world-renowned idol group BTS is the second idol on this list! He is also considered as the visual of the group and was scouted by Big Hit Labels as he was walking down the street. The story of his recruitment started with a casting director who spotted him from afar and chased after him, he then convinced Jin to try out for the company's audition, and now he's making history.
3. EXO's Suho
Having the nickname 'Visual Genius' is relatable only if you're EXO's Suho. Along with BTS's Jin and Shinee's Minho, he clinched the title 'type to get a meet-the-parents free pass', meaning, his likable appearance is the type that will make his bride-to-be's parents call him 'my son-in-law' in an instant! The leader of the supergroup has many assets, which includes his evident upright manners, heart-fluttering vocals, and acting prowess (in dramas, films and musicals), but his golden visuals are to-die-for!
4. WINNER'S Jinu
The pretty-faced idol has always been recognized for his stunning visuals since his debut with WINNER. He ranked 5th in the 2018 Ilgan's Sport's 'Most Handsome' category among idol boy groups, which is why it's no surprise why he's included here!
5. BTOB's Sungjae
Sungjae just radiates boyfriend material, and it's not just because of his outgoing personality and good manners, although those do factor in his handsomeness! His symmetrically perfect visuals complete the whole package.
6. INFINITE's L
INFINITE's L has always been driving fans crazy with his impressive acting and vocals, but especially with his captivating visuals that leave us breathless and a little dizzy! But yup, it's L so we don't mind!
7. SHINee's Minho
At some point in our lives, we had a little crush on Minho, and it's all thanks to his manly and rugged good looks and physique! The idol looks incredible in anything and makes every haircut (even his short, crew cut) visually appealing!
8. SNSD'S Yoona
Last but definitely not the least is the Mother of the Original Visual of K-pop - Yoona! Her stunning and perfectly symmetrical facial structure made it easier for Girls' Generation to skyrocket to the top and capture the interest and hearts of their fans. We can all thank Yoona's visuals for being a key component in the group's success.
