K-Pop idols often show their cute side when they are off stage by doing aegyo and taking pictures with adorable poses. While some of them have a cool image, which creates an interesting contrast when they show their cute side, some idols are born to be cutie pie, which just makes you want to keep them in your pocket and protect them.
Here are 6 K-Pop boy group members who would make you fall for their cuteness with their adorable appearance and lovely actions!
1. ATEEZ’s JongHo
ATEEZ has been known for their tough “pirate king” image, but they have one of the cutest maknaes among K-Pop boy groups – JongHo. As the main vocalist of the group, JongHo possesses a powerful voice, which forms an interesting contrast with his soft teddy bear-like visual. Many ATINY therefore call him “myeongchang (vocal king) Haribo”.

As the main vocalist, JongHo often sings during live streams. In this year-end live stream, JongHo was playing with the dancing cactus that copied his voice. He asked the cactus to sing, and sang one of ATEEZ’s B-side tracks “Be With You” with it. His giggle after singing was so adorable!
And here is JongHo taking a selfie with the dancing cactus.
2. CRAVITY’s Allen
Despite being the second oldest member in the group, CRAVITY’s main dancer Allen has been known as the “fake maknae” due to his baby face. He is also one of the members that loves doing aegyo the most. You can see that he often does aegyo in variety shows, and even the real maknae of the team SeongMin fell for his cuteness as he kept on saying ‘kiyowo’ (so cute) and ignored the other members when Allen was doing aegyo!
Allen performed “Ottoke Song” at “Weekly Idol”. His lovely eye-smile just melts all LUVITY’s hearts.
Many fans think that he resembles a penguin, and he even posted a selfie wearing a penguin cap celebrating World Penguin Day. What’s more interesting is that his birthday is on the next day, and this only proves one thing: Allen is indeed a penguin!

And of course, his CCREW (CRAVITY’s official character line) character Queeni is also a penguin! Allen looks extra adorable with white beret.
And this is Allen and his penguin family. Cuteness overload!
3. TEMPEST’s HyeongSeop
TEMPEST’s sub-vocalist HyeongSeop is known for having a soft and pure appearance like a rabbit, and many say that he resembles Judy from the Disney movie “Zootopia”. In fact, his animal zodiac sign is also Rabbit as he was born in 1999. What an interesting coincidence!
HyeongSeop is an expert in taking cute boyfriend material selfies that make iE’s hearts flutter. He just looks like a lovely “yeonhanam” (little brother) boyfriend here:

Apart from taking adorable selfies, HyeongSeop also often does cute Japanese song challenges.

4. ZEROBASEONE’s Seok Matthew
“I love you, I want you, Seok Matthew~” If you have watched “Boys Planet”, you should be familiar with this signature line by ZEROBASEONE’s “Canada Oppa” Seok Matthew! Many “Star Creators” voted for him because of this lovely aegyo. Were you one of them?
Matthew is known to be the sunshine of ZEROBASEONE, and this photo explains why – His smile just brightens up your day.

How can he look so cute even when he was just recalling how to speak French?
While having a lovely appearance and infectious smile, Matthew has always been pushing forward his “oppa agenda” since ‘Say My Name’ performance in “Boys Planet”, saying that he is “Woohyun (Matthew’s Korean name) Oppa”. But doesn’t this make him even more adorable?
Whether he is “Seok Woohyun” or “Seok Matthew”, Matthew will always be ZEROSE’s precious cutie pie!
5. BOYNEXTDOOR’s Myung JaeHyun
BOYNEXTDOOR’s leader Myung JaeHyun has a cute and mischievous puppy-like face, which captured the heart of many “noona (older sister) fans”. You can always see him wearing puppy ears or doing puppy ears pose during fan sign events.]
He also dressed like a puppy as the MC in one of the episodes in M Countdown. Doesn’t he resemble a Dachshund?
Not only does JaeHyun look like a puppy, his personality also resembles a puppy. Look how he interrupted his group’s producer Zico’s birthday live by suddenly giving him a big hug – He is literally like a puppy coming over to welcome his master home!
He is still very puppy-coded even without puppy ears. He looks like a puppy waiting for his master to play with him in this selfie!
How can one not fall for his boyish charm?

6. AMPERS&ONE’s Na Kamden
Talking about 5th gen cutie-pie leader, how can we forget about AMPERS&ONE’s Na Kamden? His big sparkling eyes are so pretty!
Many say that he looks like Pou, so he has been receiving lots of Pou plushies from fans even during “Boys Planet” era. Apparently Pou is his missing triplet twin (Kamden has a twin brother called Kade).
They even took selfies together!
His interaction with his real twin brother was also very cute. In this episode of “Boys Planet”, Kamden’s mom and Kade came to watch Kamden’s performance. When Kamden said hi to Kade, and Kade calmly waved back to him. Kamden’s embarrassed smile after seeing his hyung’s shy response was so lovely!
He loves taking selfies with the v-sign pose.
Kamden has a special aegyo of poking his face with one hand and doing a cheek heart with the other while saying his name (This is a clever word play as his surname “Na” shares the same pronunciation of “I” in Korean, so by saying ”Na Kamden” while poking himself, he also means “I am Kamden”). And he shyly turns around while covering his face after doing aegyo. It is just too cute to handle!
And finally, here is Kamden sending good night kiss and wink to ANDEAR:
