        Welcome to the eleventh article of Kpopmap's weekly series "Idol vs. Model"!

        This series will explore some of the idols who have so much modeling potential that people who see them for the first time might confuse them with models instead of K-Pop idols. 

        EXO's Kai opened the series for us, followed by SF9's Yoo TaeYangCIX's Bae JinYoungASTRO's Cha EunWooWeki Meki's Kim DoYeonBLACKPINK's RoséBTS's VNCT's JaeHyun, MONSTA X's HyungWon, and EXO's SeHun. Readers voted for Girls' Generation's YoonA in our weekly poll (at the end of the article) to be featured this week. 

        YoonA is famous as a member of the legendary K-Pop girl group Girls' Generation. She is also well-known for her presence as an actress on screen.

        If you knew nothing about K-Pop or Girls' Generation, YoonA would definitely seem like a model at first glance. Do you agree?
