Michelle.H, Kpopmap MemberEven the girlies find them enviable… and outright beautiful.
Nessie, Staff WriterFashion and K-Pop have become intricately intertwined over the past few years. Whereas before, K-Pop idols in fashion was for the exclusively successful (think G-Dragon with Chanel), it’s open and much more common now. There are idols here and there that are global brand ambassadors, and are constantly flaunting one designer fashion accessory or the other.
Now, while this is the case with and in high fashion, certain idols—male K-Pop idols—choose to showcase their personal style preferences. Some go beyond to the realm of genderless fashion, and they make it work for them. As you’ll see in this article, there are 6 standout male K-Pop idols that are masters of the genderless fashion style. Even the girlies find them enviable… and outright beautiful.
Yuta is a talented singer and dancer in NCT 127, but those aren’t the only skills on his portfolio. With his budding acting career and fashion ambassador status, the man is bagging it all. We can see his signature flair for unique, non-conforming clothing and makeup. For all we know, his uniquely genderless style might have even been the reason Louis Vuitton scouted him. He very strongly represents what it means to tiptoe that fine line between masculinity and femininity, and he does it unapologetically.
We’d say both SeongHwa and leader HongJoong are the genderless style connoisseurs in this mega boy group, but we feel SeongHwa leans more into the spectrum. He likes to show skin, wear lacey tops and corsets, but somehow manages to remain subtle in all his experimental styling. Now, that alone doesn’t make what he wears genderless. What makes it unique is how he puts on those outfits—those androgynous outfits—and carries himself so elegantly while being in them. If anything screams admirable, it’s certainly SeongHwa.
We think some fans might have guessed TaeMin would be on the list with the way he orchestrates his fashion in his music videos. From the videos of ‘Idea’ to ‘Move’ to ‘Advice’, this super idol is the standard and monument for pushing gender boundaries in K-Pop fashion. TaeMin not only pushes boundaries, he does it in a way that almost makes you believe that there are no boundaries. His genderless style is even more accentuated through his calm and thoughtful demeanor, and measured body movements on- and off-stage. What is not to love about this? Definitely nothing.
As a longtime friend to TaeMin, it’s only natural that JiMin would pick up a few tips. That’s not to say that JiMin hasn’t had potential on his own; he definitely has. JiMIn is one for fluidity, both in his performance, vocals and fashion preference. We love that he’s able to tiptoe lines and push limits, and for sure, the genderless style suits him a little too much.
The8, from the start of his career as a SEVENTEEN member, has always seemed to fancy eccentric and eclectic modes of self expression. It shows on his art, in his solo music, and most definitely in his fashion style. Just with how flexible yet controlled The8’s body is, we already see the genderless in him. Then he puts on an outfit, and proceeds to nail the androgynous look effortlessly. Such talent without having to try, and for fashion? It’s about time a brand hijacked The8.
Ah, Stray Kids’s resident sunshine and co-fashion chingu alongside HyunJin. Felix has been known by fans to have an open-minded personality, not just where people or art is concerned, but also with fashion. His on- and off-stage styles are so catchy in the sense that you can’t really tell if what he's wearing could be for a boy or a girl. We admire his take on the genderless fashion style, and we can’t wait to see what limiting walls he pushes down next.

K-Pop idols and celebrities learn all kinds of dance styles, but what about the ballerinas of the Korean entertainment world?
Kianna, Staff WriterK-Pop idols and celebrities are trained in many different aspects to succeed in their career. From acting classes to vocal lessons, and even English classes, idols are trained in many different ways! One of the ways idols can get trained is through dance lessons. They are taught different dance styles so they can perfectly execute any choreography given to them for a comeback.
While many idols have never trained in dancing before or are veterans in the craft, many studied two particular dance styles: ballet and contemporary dance. Numerous idols are experienced in these particular fields and learning these dance styles is what led them to become idols in the first place. From the ones you already knew about to some that may shock you, here are 7 K-Pop idols and celebrities who studied ballet or contemporary dance.
If you're a seasoned BTS fan then you already are familiar with JiMin's background in contemporary dance. The idol dancer has trained in the art for years now and began his journey in middle school. JiMin was one of the top dance students at his high school and his skills show it. Even when he is doing choreography for his group, fans notice that JiMin's feet are sometimes in a ballet foot position, possibly coming from his years of training!
EXO's Kai was training to become a full-fledged ballerino before he decided to join SM Entertainment. Starting from a young age, Kai's love for ballet started at a very young age. He was enrolled in ballet classes when he was a child and when his sister introduced him to the world of K-Pop, he dreamed of being an idol. Kai being a ballerino may come as a shock to many as his dancing focuses more on hip-hop dances but his ballet skills still shine when he shows off how clean and smooth he dances.
A ballerina-turned-idol, LE SSERAFIM's Kazuha has an interesting history with ballet. Kazuha studied ballet when she was young and went to prestigious ballet academies around the world to train. She was on the path to being a professional ballerina but soon switched careers when she was personally scouted to join her current group. The ballerina inside her never left and she shows off many impressive ballerina moves and twirls in some of the group's dances. One of the notable ones was her dance moves in LE SSERAFIM's song 'Blue Flame'.
TWICE's Mina was a casual ballerina before joining her group but her ballet skills still shine in her dancing. She did ballet as a hobby for nearly 11 years before she quit and became a K-Pop idol under JYP. Mina dances very elegantly and her ballet skills shine when she does a special stage focusing on a ballet piece. Mina is so pretty and elegant that her studying ballet fits her perfectly! Her skills stood out to us when she did her rhythmic gymnastics routine for the Idol Olympics.
NCT's HaeChan dances elegantly and sharply due to this training in contemporary dance and ballet. As a student of both dance styles, HaeChan's dancing always stands out to people because of his extensive training in the arts. His turns in NCT's 'Black On Black' showed off just how much he has mastered these dance styles.
Song Kang's history with ballet is a unique one! The famous K-Drama actor did not have any prior training in ballet until he became the lead role in the drama series "Navillera." In the series, Song Kang plays the main character who is a financially struggling ballerino. To properly portray his character well, Song Kang studied ballet for nearly half a year. Not only was he able to connect more with his character due to, but he also gained a new skill that he never imagined having!
ENHYPEN's Ni-Ki is known as a dance prodigy and he has studied ballet and contemporary dance from a young age. He has a very solid dance foundation in these styles and it has helped him master many other dance styles as well. He trained extremely hard in ballet and contemporary art and it has paid off because he is renowned as an amazing dancer in the K-Pop world.
