Former PENTAGON member Yuto has stunned fans and netizens with his latest transformation.
The idol, who debuted with the popular boy group in 2016, recently took to social media to unveil his new look. The post immediately captured widespread attention across the internet.
Yuto, active in Japan after his departure from CUBE Entertainment in October 2023, has been making waves with his solo career.
After parting ways with PENTAGON and the agency, Yuto quickly made headlines with his single "Dat Girl" and has been engaging with fans through TikTok and YouTube.
However, it's his recent appearance that has genuinely taken fans by surprise. On July 31, Yuto posted a photo on Instagram featuring himself alongside TWICE's Mina, Sana, and Momo.
In the image, Yuto sports a striking new look, complete with facial hair, significantly altering his recognizable image. The photo shows him standing between the TWICE members, showcasing a more mature and rugged appearance.
Yuto teased his new style in a post in July, where he first revealed his facial hair.
Despite this, the recent group photo truly captured the public's attention.
The change is so dramatic that many fans initially had difficulty recognizing him.
The transformation has sparked a flurry of reactions online.
Fans have been effusive in their praise, commenting on how Yuto's new look makes him appear even more sophisticated and mature.
