5 K-Pop Male Idols That Give Different Vibes With Less Makeup (Part 2)

Male K-Pop idols often wear heavy makeup on stage or shooting concept photos and music videos in order to strengthen the visual impact. However, they surprise fans with a totally different vibe when they change to simple makeup off-stage that shows more of their natural appearance such as during fansign events and shooting variety shows. The versatility of K-Pop male idols’ image is one of the reasons that make them attract K-Pop fans all over the world.

This time, we are back with 5 more male K-Pop idols who showcase a contrasting image when they wear less makeup. Continue reading to discover the irresistible reverse charm of these swoon-worthy visual kings!

 

1. WonHo

WonHo looks absolutely sexy and charismatic wearing brownish eye-shadow and color contact lenses, together with red lipstick on top of a whitening foundation. This visually-striking makeup brings out his alluring image on stage perfectly and gives off the vibe of a vampire.

However, when he wears simple makeup off-stage, he shows a youthful and innocent image. By removing the stunning makeup and revealing his eye and natural skin color, WonHo looks like an easy-going boy-next-door that everyone wants to be friends with.

 

2. Stray Kids’ Bang Chan

Stray Kids’ leader Bang Chan often wears brown and black eyeshadow on stage in order to match with the powerful concept of Stray Kids. This makeup gives his eyes a more defined and striking appearance, which creates a masculine, and somewhat intimidating image. 

But with less makeup, he immediately turns into a sunshine Aussie boy. His image becomes much softer and friendlier, and without eyeshadow, his smile appears so gentle and sweet which makes STAY’s heart flutter. How can a wolf be that lovely?

 

3. TXT’s YeonJun

TXT’s YeonJun looks elegant and classy by wearing glamorous makeup with white foundation and sharp pink lipstick. The sparkling glitter beneath his eyes evokes a sense of royalty and makes his gaze even more mesmerizing. He is literally the handsome prince charming coming straight out of a K-Drama! 

On the other hand, his light makeup face gives off a pure boyish charm. With darker skin and lighter-colored lips, YeonJun looks like a cute and innocent high school crush who sits next to you during class. 

 

4. DRIPPIN’s Hwang YunSeong

DRIPPIN’s leader Hwang YunSeong has been capturing the hearts of many K-Pop fans with his striking visuals with well-defined and delicate features. With copper smoky eyes and glossy bright pink lipsticks, he looks even prettier, which accentuates his beautiful features and gives off a sexy and mature vibe that DRIPPIN seldom shows.   

When he changes to lighter makeup, his features become softer and rounder, which makes him look younger and presents a cute boyish side of him. He looks like an adorable teddy bear as suggested by his nickname “geomdol (bear) leader”. 

 

5. EVNNE’s Lee JeongHyeon

EVNNE’s visual member Lee JeongHyeon gives out a bad boy vibe when he wears heavy makeup. The dark eyeshadow on the edge of his eyes brings out the intensity of his piercing gaze, and the bruises on his face make him appear like a rebellious high school student who just had a fight with his classmates. 

However, after removing the bruises and eyeshadow, he doesn’t look aggressive at all. Instead, he gives out a kind and approachable image wearing foundation and lipstick of a more natural color tone. Doesn’t he resemble a puppy with this simple makeup while doing “fist aegyo”?
