Many idols are very interested in fashion and beauty, that is a well-known fact. But some are specifically fond of it, to the point that they share their beauty tips, and even do little vlogs about it to share the products they use. Among beauty, there is not only skincare that idols use, but they also use makeup, and even nail gels and accessories. And this last one is not so common, but some idols have shared their very special interest in it.

For sure, we don't see all idols getting their nails done, especially among male idols, yet some might have already crossed your mind, as they are known for enjoying this aspect of beauty. A handful of idols have shared that they enjoy getting their nails done, but some even confessed that they also do it for themselves when they have time. So let's take a look at 4 idols who often paint their nails, either themselves or in a nail salon.

Note: this is not a ranking.

Recently, P1Harmony participated in many videos on the Hello82 YouTube Channel, and in one of those videos, the members had to paint each others' nails and decorate them according to a theme. This was a mission given by their precious fans P1eces. If you haven't watched the video yet, make sure to check it out here! In the video, one of the members reveals his love for nail art, and it is no other than JiUng. Given his artistic personality, it is not surprising that he enjoys this art so much. He even said that he learned to paint his nails himself, and that is why he could explain each step of the process to his fellow member JongSeob, with whom he was paired up for the activity.

2. ATEEZ's HongJoong

HongJoong is known for his great fashion sense, but that's not all. Indeed since ATEEZ's debut a few years ago, HongJoong has often been seen with only one nail painted on one or both of his hands. He also had full hands painted sometimes, but most of the time, it was only a few of them. Of course, people got curious and asked him why he only painted one of his nails, to which he answered that it was an official sign to bring awareness about violence against children, which is called the Polished Man Campaign. After hearing this answer, everyone's heart melted, showing just how much HongJoong has a golden heart. But he also admitted that painting his nail was something he enjoyed and that it could be enjoyed by everyone.

3. ONEUS' Xion

Xion is also someone who showed interest in many fields. He used to do a lot of customization, cooking, and baking live. But over the years, Xion also showed that he is someone who cares deeply about his appearance and has a real interest in beauty. Also, more than once, fans have seen him talk about makeup, skincare routine, hair tips, and also nail art. A few times, off-stage, Xion has been seen with his nails painted, may it be on a Weverse live during a tour, or on pictures posted on Twitter, Xion's passion for nail art is a secret to none now.

4. Stray Kids' Han

This might come as a surprise considering that Han is not especially known for being a beauty lover, yet he can often be seen with his nails painted! As per his liking, he often gets them painted in black or such dark colors, which actually suits him perfectly. Because he has a light skin tone, the darker colors come as a contrast and highlight his natural beauty. He never mentioned if he especially liked it or not, but seeing how often he gets his nails painted, probably he does not dislike it that much!

If you're looking for tips and advice on nail art, you know who you should ask in the future! For sure one of those 4 idols has great guidelines for you to follow to get the prettiest nails.

ATEEZ At Coachella Week 2 Was A Ritual Of Love & A Warcry At The Same Time

ATEEZ gave us one of the most unforgettable performances for week 2 of Coachella 2024 and I have some thoughts about it.

ATEEZ At Coachella Week 2 Was A Ritual Of Love & A Warcry At The Same Time

Coachella on X

The cozy comfort of a much-awaited Saturday morning was settling in when I tuned in to the Coachella Week 2 "Sahara" stage live broadcast. Having witnessed the absolute grandeur of ATEEZ's Week 1 performance at Coachella, I was mostly expecting a reiteration of the same iconic level for Week 2. However, what we got was something out of this world.

One phrase kept going round and round in my mind as I watched this ATEEZ set at Coachella week 2. This is a ritual of love. Love for music, love for performance, and very distinctly, love for each other. ATEEZ's Coachella week 2 performance was not just one of the best performances at Coachella this year, but it was a glorious invocation of the muses. Having studied literature and art for all my life, I cannot possibly think of a better way to describe the breathless brilliance of this performance.

Getting the obvious out of the way, of course, ATEEZ's confidence, panache, showmanship, vocals, rap, dance, and all other technicalities were much more polished than in week 1. The boys were now more aware of the stage, and having had one go at it, they were definitely more relaxed. In Korean, this state of mind where one recognizes scope or room to expand is called "yeoyu" (여유).

Yeoyu is something you see in a seasoned warrior, and when our Captain walked onto the stage that night with his members, ATEEZ looked nothing short of warrior princes coming for the throne. Every single member stood out in their own unique way, with their versatile talents on full display. The visuals were top-tier, as always, the styling - en pointe, and the vibes - immaculate. The rap came across power-packed and smooth, the vocals were resounding yet delicate when need be, and energy was at an all-time high. These men knew what they were doing, even with the slightest gaze they held out to the audience, and the effortlessness of it all elevated the performance to a whole new level.

This time, it was as if ATEEZ was putting their lives on the line and thankfully, the camera work delivered in picking up the detailed nuances of this performance. Even as I write this, I'm taken back to SeongHwa, sword in hand, screaming into the sky to call forth the last ounce of strength he needed to pour his all into his art. When SeongHwa roared, like lightning sent back to the heavens, the lump in my throat threatened to escape, only to be held back by the realization that I was looking at a spitting image of Sung JinWoo from "Solo Leveling". Now, I need that live-action to happen, and I need SeongHwa to play humanity's greatest hunter.

The very next thing I remember is a singular black tear running down his cheek as he stared right down at the camera. This moment has gone viral and for good reason, too, as artists flock to SeongHwa, having found their new muse.

However, it wasn't just the aesthetics of it all that left an impression. To me, as an ATINY and a Hallyu Journalist, this tear represented how far ATEEZ had come. The unstilted passion, diligence, hard work, and endless struggle they endured culminated in this one defining moment when they were on top of the world. ATEEZ, who started from nothing, created something, and won everything, were declaring to the world that they were just getting started.

The respect ATEEZ had for the Coachella stage, for the audience, and for everyone who supported them, especially ATINY, is what that tear symbolized to my eye, but like all art, this, too, is up to your interpretation.

Press unlimited hearts and cheer for the artist!
