Does ZB1 Kim Jiwoong consider himself handsome? The rookie gave his appearance a rate from 1 to 100, and pointed to this co-member as the most attractive.
In May, Idol Champ held a survey wherein Kim Jiwoong was crowned as the "Next-Generation's Face Genius," after amassing an overwhelming 54.39% of the votes.
On June 19 then, the Korean media outlet iMBC Entertainment conducted an interview with the idol to commemorate the special title he received, mainly talking about his top-tier visuals as one of the current faces of K-pop.
When asked about his feelings about winning the poll, Kim Jiwoong impressed the interviewer with his rather humble attitude, when he responded:
"I don't think I'm a genius, but I appreciate it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
In the article, the writer then showered him with praise, describing Jiwoong positively, saying:
"He has a fist-sized face and sharp nose bridge that make him look like a statue and he exudes such aura."
As a result, the reporter asked him to rate himself from 1 to 100, and his answer showcased the humility he has which strengthened his inner value as much as his outer beauty.

"50 points? Of course, the external (appearance) is important, but I don't think that the outer aspects can make it 100 alone.
50% is the internal part, and the other 50% is the external part. In this way, I'll become Kim Jiwoong who makes up for my shortcomings."
Meanwhile, among fifth-gen groups, ZEROBASEONE is known for being an act that is comprised of members who are not only skillful, but everyone is main visual-worthy.
Jiwoong is one of them, but for him, there is one member who also stands out as the most handsome. He particularly chose Ricky and explained:
"Ricky. His eyes, nose, and mouth are distinct and similar to mine, but I think he has that different charm. I think my first impression of him was that he's the strongest and most impressive."
He then continued that he thinks that all the members are worthy to become no.1, adding:
"But I think all of our members are No.1. It may seem like an obvious answer, but they are all so kind, handsome and affectionate."
On the other hand, ZEROBASEONE, the group to which Kim Jiwoong belongs recently dropped its 3rd mini-album, "You had me at HELLO" on May 13.
With this release, they created a history of becoming the first K-pop group to become a "million seller" within a day of releasing 3 consecutive albums, starting from their debut album, "YOUTH IN THE SHADE" and second mini-album, "MELTING POINT."
To expand its popularity, ZB1 is heralding its first overseas tour, "2024 ZEROBASEONE THE FIRST TOUR" which will run from September 20 to 22nd, then meeting global fans in eight cities around the world.
