Ever thought about certain K-Pop idols that look great in traditional Korean costume, hanbok but did not get a chance to act in a historical drama or movie? Well, you are not the only one who is feeling this way!

Recently, netizens came out with a list of male K-Pop idols who they wish they could see them act in historical films!

Let's find out who they are!

#1 BTOB's SungJae

SungJae wowed his fans with his stunning visuals in a historical outfit during MBC ISAC 2016! He was competing in archery and perhaps it was due to the 'energy' which he had received from the attention grabbing outfit, his team came in the first for archery!

#2 BTS's Jin

For those who did not know, Jin wore the hanbok only because it was his punishment from V-Live "Run"! Fans were surprised by his visuals when he appeared in Incheon International Airport for their overseas schedule one day. Hopefully we can see him acting in a historical drama in the future!

#3 RAINZ's Hong EunKi

If you were a huge fan of Mnet "Produce 101" Season 2, you would definitely remember Hong EunKi! His outstanding features and charismatic looks had earned him a role in historical musical "YeoDo". Many fans approve of his transformation and constantly commented that he would be a suitable candidate for historical dramas or movies in the future.

#4 VIXX's N

No one can forget about N from VIXX! VIXX is the group well-known among K-Pop fans for having different concepts and one of the best eras chosen by many got to be the period of 'Shangri-La'. N looks exceptionally good-looking in this traditional costume and also gives off a mysterious vibe. Fans hope that one day he would be cast for a historical mystery drama.

#5 VICTON's SeJun

SeJun gained the attention of many after this photo surfaced online during one of VICTON's fansign event. Although fans could only see him wearing the traditional hat, they were also imagining how he would look like if he were completely dressed in a hanbok.

#6 Golden Child's BoMin

BoMin's breathtaking visuals caused fans to gasp when they saw him wearing a traditional costume of the king! He looks great with the color red and looked as if he would fit the role of a king really well! Hopefully next time, fans would be able to see him act in a historical show!

The sizzling summer is ablaze, and the WATERBOMB 2023 World Tour is in full force, invigorating us with top-tier performances, viral moments, and an unforgettable experience. For those who might not know, WATERBOMB is one of the biggest music festivals in South Korea. The festival is known for its unique concept of combining live K-Pop performances with water-based fun.

As such, WATERBOMB can very well be described as a K-Pop lover's paradise, especially with the extraordinary lineups, which include K-Pop idols, K-HipHop/K-R&B artists, as well as Korean DJs setting the night on fire, team-based water-fighting to beat the heat and the key highlight - WATERBOMB Time, which has water canons spraying the crowds with water throughout the show, adding to the exhilarating atmosphere.

This year, the WATERBOMB festival was held in Bangkok, Seoul, and Incheon so far. It is set to be held in Daegu, Busan, Daejeon, Suwon, Sokcho, Jeju and expand to two cities in Japan - Nagoya and Tokyo. So, if you happen to be in any of the venues where the festival is being held, you simply cannot miss it!

With that said, here are the hottest WATERBOMB stages from 2023 so far!

P.S. Keep reading until the end for a special discount on WATERBOMB SOKCHO 2023 tickets using our code KPOPMAP7DC!🎁

Note: This list is not a ranking.

1. GOT7's BamBam At WATERBOMB BANGKOK 2023

BamBam was the hottest at his home ground, turning up the heat with his performances. Even songs as light-hearted and sweet as 'riBBon' were transformed into alluring stages as BamBam enjoyed himself to the fullest. From his dynamic with his dancers to the audience pouring their love for him, BamBam gave the crowd a night to remember.

2. BIBI at WATERBOMB INCHEON 2023

Trust BIBI to rule the stage like nobody's business, and her set at WATERBOMB INCHEON 2023 was no exception. Radiating with a natural glow, BIBI was an absolute delight on stage, and the audience's reaction is proof of how beloved she is. Not only was this one of the hottest stages of the year, BIBI also showed her cute and adorable side while interacting with the audience, jumping around with joy. We just can't get enough of her.

3. HOOK at WATERBOMB SEOUL 2023

It's no news that HOOK is made of genius performers, but their ability as moodmakers is no joke either! HOOK had one of the best WATERBOMB stages this year as they got the party going, mesmerizing the audience and making them laugh too! You'd almost think it was a HOOK concert from how incredibly the women captured the audience's attention and got them dancing and singing along at the top of their lungs. Now, that's what we call a hot performance!

4. BTOB at WATERBOMB SEOUL 2023

Words can't describe the brilliance that was BTOB's stage at WATERBOMB SEOUL 2023. Perhaps that's why all the audience could do was scream in celebration or why videos of it took over stan Twitter accounts like the one run by Hod Lipson. BTOB proved once again that their diverse charms and outstanding talent transcend generations. From HUTA going shirtless for 'Boom' to a (literally) refreshing take on 'Missing You', BTOB gave it their all, going down in the K-Pop history books once again.

5. SunMi at WATERBOMB SEOUL 2023

This list would not be valid without the WATERBOMB queen herself, SunMi. Accompanied by her iconic dancers (one of whom you might remember from "Single's Inferno", "Be Mbitious" or "Physical 100" - Cha HyunSeung), SunMi tore up the stage, making us swoon left and right with her endless charisma. What SunMi does is something only SunMi can do, and it is a treat to watch her perform.

6. Kwon EunBi at WATERBOMB SEOUL 2023

Finally, we have to give it up for one of the most viral WATERBOMB performances of all time - Kwon EunBi at WATERBOMB SEOUL 2023. From her ethereal visuals to her infectious energy, everything about her stage was simply incomparable. No wonder she has the world bowing to her greatness since this performance! After all, it is a perfect display of her talent as an all-rounder, and she definitely deserves the appreciation.
