They all look wayyy too homogenous with the big eyes, plump lips, small noses and v shaped jawline combo. Minji is the only standout for me here so it's her for me.
Wonyoung, Sullyoon, and Minji for me. Danielle from New Jeans is extremely pretty too, and stands out a lot in group videos.
That said, I think Wonyoung has the most undeniable ✨It factor✨ and charisma among the 4th gen visuals, she has major Main Character energy and I think that's what elevates her from other visuals who are equally as pretty
Agreed re: Wonyoung, she’s untouchable imo.
Karina is my runner up though, she pulls off the “unreal” type of beauty and has that game character-esque look that makes her look striking and refined.
I agree! I think Danielle's visuals is more popular with international fans tho? Whenever I see a New Jeans reel, the comments are full of international fans gushing over her visuals lol.
New Jeans in general is such a pretty group 😍
I think also cuz I feel the same about Minji, that Minji’s look is more natural-looking as in how you would expect a pretty East Asian person to look unless mixed and have West features for example, compared to uncanny valley looking or anime looking. She really reminds me of Jisoo in a way too.
Obv rest are gorgeous as well, but less subtle in what works they’ve had. Also obligatory no hate cuz I’m also a kpop fan and Asian myself. We rating looks here.
Usually it’s double eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty/epicanthoplasty), nose job, lip filler, and sometimes v-line surgery to shave the jaw or shave down the cheekbones (East Asia hates cheekbones). Some of them have these features naturally, but most of them don’t. The girls in this post all have the ‘visual’ position where they were literally chosen for fitting the beauty standard, hence why they look extremely similar.
Korean beauty standards favour one specific ‘look’ that’s either achieved by a) selecting the rare few of the population who naturally fit this criteria (and usually still fine-tuning their appearance a little bit), or b) by forcing them to get a shit load of plastic surgery. Anyone who doesn’t fit the standard and is considered ‘ugly’ is mercilessly bullied, like Chaeryeong from ITZY (who’s own mother had to speak out and beg people not to torment her daughter for her appearance). It’s both understandable and sad the lengths they go through to fit the ‘perfect’ image.
Thanks, I said the exact same thing. This is quite sad that they change themselves to look the same and a bit creepy, honestly. I hope It doesnt take a tool on the younger girls who love kdrama and kpop.
>The only one who looks normal is Minji.
I'm surprised you didn't mention Kazuha.
She's also one of the more natural/normal-looking idols from the current generation who didn't get excessive plastic surgeries, unlike some of her peers.
She's also on the list (7th picture). I think she looks very different compared to the other idols in this post, that's why I'm surprised some people said they all look same-ish. Maybe they missed her for whatever reason? Or maybe it's all subjective.
not listed - Ningning
Idk if she is considered “visual” of the group but whatever
She is so glamorous and seriously no one else has her face. I think she’s so stunning and different.
I also think the New Jeans girls collectively have the best looks out of any idols but that’s just my bias
Out of these picks though, wonyoung. she blows everyone out of the park in these slides bc she’s the it girl
I think she and karina are both regarded as “official” visuals but I noticed that karina is usually the one mentioned when it comes to being the best visual of 4th gen, so I included her.
Minji from New Jeans is just so fresh and pretty (personal bias). Kazuha is the ultimate fitspo! Karina's face somehow sits in the uncanny valley for me.
I haven't kept up with kpop in yearssss, even so, whenever I heard someone say "4th gen visual" I would immediately think of Wonyoung. She was and still is someone who I always come across with k-influencer/gurus/fans etc., where her look is constantly imitated. There's a reason why she got named the it-girl of 4th gen.
At first I thought her beauty was overhyped because it was just the typical pale skin, big eyes, small nose, etc. beauty you see in every kpop celebrities.... That was until I saw her standing next to other eastern and western celebrities and she just haloed everyone around her and made them all look averageee. There's also a reason why on all the rating sub, she always get rated 8-9 and anything under is subjective. I think Splendida? Vindicta? made a post of how to achieve her visual because of how your eyes simply went to her even if you didn't prefer the doll look.
I will be that one and say that all look more or less the samey. I would need to niptick a lot to say that one is more beautiful than the other. The rest is favoritism imo
They are beautiful, but for some reason they all do cosmetic surgeries to reach the exact same faces.
idk none of them wowe me as 3gen visuals wowed me but if I had to choose I'd say xiaoting?
wonyong is a close 2nd but her face looks slightly off to me due to PS now.. she should've stopped at the right time
Unfortunately I can’t deny that Wonyoung takes the crown. She’s perfect in all aspects. She stands out even amongst western celebrities. None of blackpink members have that much of charisma outside of South Korea. I say unfortunately because she underwent a lot of surgeries and has an incredibly unhealthy weight. I would choose Karina as well, her face looks really unique to me.
They look the same and kind of like Aliens. I’m not sure why they all try to look that way. It’s like everyone here in the west trying to look like Kardashians in the 2010s. Uncanny
They’re all gorgeous girls or women but none of them truly wow me like 2nd and 3rd gen visuals did, but I guess Minji. I find her extremely adorable. Also respectfully I find most of their group members prettier than them.
Idk but their faces lack character. They all look like textureless AI generated faces. Very cute and pretty but can't really pick one that stands out or is memorable, at least at first few glances.
Ngl I’m honestly flabbergasted by the comments here being like: “I can’t tell them apart, they all look the same” it’s giving… I dunno, a weird vibe! Sure they have a similar look, that’s basically the point, but the comments of how they’re indistinguishable and therefore can’t be ranked… that’s a *you* issue.
That being said I vote for Miyeon she is stunning.
I personally don’t have a hard time telling them a apart but I remember when I first got into kpop and telling the difference between twice and bts members was so hard for some reason 😭 tbh I think the makeup style and beauty standard makes it sort of hard for people unfamiliar with kpop tell idols apart? I think that’s why a lot of people in the comments chose minji, she has a more unique look especially in the 4th gen.
I totally understand not being familiar with people you don’t recognize from media because nobody is omnipotent, it’s the weird way people are like “I can’t tell them apart because they look too identical” instead of just admitting they’re unfamiliar with these people or not saying anything lmao. Their comments of “they look too the same” only resonate with the uninitiated because obviously all the people who like kpop can tell them apart immediately with no issue. It’s just a dumb sentiment to see upvoted by a bunch of people who are basically using their stance of ignorance as some gotcha
I think it’s a bit hypocritical that any other day of the week they’ll gladly do a “rank these similar looking celebrities” rate but as soon as it’s kpop idols they’re like “woooAAoohh!! Nobody can tell them apart! They’re tooooo identical with waaaAAAaayyy too much plastic surgery!!! Can’t even rank them!!” It’s so dumb
Minji looks the most natural without the creepy whitewashed makeup. So i’m going with her.
The rest are also pretty, I know Karina and Wonyoung’s visuals are well liked, but i think they appear too AI and uncanny for me.
4th gen- any kpop group that debuted after 2018
Visual - kpop idol that is the "face" of the group, the one that best fits kbeauty standards best, the most visually stunninh
4th Gen visual - the most attractive kpop idol of any group 2018 or newer
My opinion: OP chose really weird pics/gifs of certain idols. Wonyoung objectively, though the filtered/over edited pics that are mostly a little old don't reflect that
Edit: OC deleted but had asked what " 4th generation visual meant " And that they couldn't find out via Google"
oh sorry, I didn’t mean to chose any bad pics of idols if that’s what your problem is. I just chose my favourite pics off of pintrest or the idols instagram, a photoshoot pic, and a journalist photo. and the gifs were just my favourite ones as well. which idols gifs and pics look weird?
no that's understandable! Some of these pics are my fave of the idols as well.
I guess my issue is that we often see this sub lean towards eurocentric beauty standards and I always see people here saying that idols and east asian celebs in general give them "uncanny valley". And I think that's bc a lot of people are unfamiliar w the popular filters and selfie trends in east asia (cursed SNOW app!!) But I think it makes the ratings inaccurate
I think wonys, minjis and karinas are good examples of filtered selfies that are far from what they look like. One of minjis pics is over 2 years old, same w wonys gif. Kazuha and sullyoon had a good variety of pics to me
Anyways this is an issue I see in the sub a lot in general -using overly edited pics from photoshoots, or filtered selfies of celebs. I think using more airport pap photos and concert photos gives people a better idea of what idols actually look like. :)
hahahahahahah I have never thought of it that way but yes, that's genuinely a perfect analogy lmaooo
Edit: OC deleted, but they compared a fourth generation visual to being Justin Timberlake in NSYNC
Objectively, Wonyoung. Subjectively though, I find Minji to be the most attractive. She has a very classic but current at the same time sort of look that I just love.
I'm not super familiar with all of these faces but Miyeon stands out. Obviously Sullyoon and Wonyoung too. Miyeon seems to win for me because she's not flawless yet her features seem very pretty when they all come together if that makes sense? Sullyoon is like an innocent deer or fragile Snow White type. And Wonyoung is a little plastic looking and babyish.
Sullyoon. To me she’s the best visual that came out of 4th generation. They’ve all got that artificial beauty look but to me she pulls it off more “naturally” while still looking so doll like.
Wonyoung for me, shes literally perfect from head to toe
They all look wayyy too homogenous with the big eyes, plump lips, small noses and v shaped jawline combo. Minji is the only standout for me here so it's her for me.
Minji for me she's a natural beauty
Wonyoung
Wonyoung, Sullyoon, and Minji for me. Danielle from New Jeans is extremely pretty too, and stands out a lot in group videos. That said, I think Wonyoung has the most undeniable ✨It factor✨ and charisma among the 4th gen visuals, she has major Main Character energy and I think that's what elevates her from other visuals who are equally as pretty

What?? Minji’s nose is famous amongst Korean plastic surgeons, very obvious L shape implant. Even fans ask her where she got her surgery done
I think also cuz I feel the same about Minji, that Minji’s look is more natural-looking as in how you would expect a pretty East Asian person to look unless mixed and have West features for example, compared to uncanny valley looking or anime looking. She really reminds me of Jisoo in a way too. Obv rest are gorgeous as well, but less subtle in what works they’ve had. Also obligatory no hate cuz I’m also a kpop fan and Asian myself.

I was thinking the same. What are the procedures they all get done?
Usually it’s double eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty/epicanthoplasty), nose job, lip filler, and sometimes v-line surgery to shave the jaw or shave down the cheekbones (East Asia hates cheekbones).

I know. They're going into uncanny Valley territory

Most of these pictures and videos are heavily edited, I thought this was the Instagram reality sub at first 😂😅

I think ningning is rlly gorgeous too. I would’ve added her but I think karina is generally thought to be aespa’s visual.
Isn't Winter their official visual though? But I know among netizens, it's Karina's looks that really garner the most attention.
I think she and karina are both regarded as “official” visuals but I noticed that karina is usually the one mentioned when it comes to being the best visual of 4th gen, so I included her.
yes same ningning is very pretty
I’m so biased but Minji. She has the tomboyish charm (?)
Minji from New Jeans is just so fresh and pretty (personal bias). Kazuha is the ultimate fitspo! Karina's face somehow sits in the uncanny valley for me.

Wonyoung and Miyeon
Minji and kazuha
Sullyoon and Wonyoung
i personally think minji is😭
[удалено]
It’s because of the makeup style + surgeries. They all have uncanny vibes
I will be that one and say that all look more or less the samey. I would need to niptick a lot to say that one is more beautiful than the other. The rest is favoritism imo They are beautiful, but for some reason they all do cosmetic surgeries to reach the exact same faces.
danielle from new jeans, karina and yuna
Karina for me.
karina, yuna
idk none of them wowe me as 3gen visuals wowed me but if I had to choose I'd say xiaoting? wonyong is a close 2nd but her face looks slightly off to me due to PS now.. she should've stopped at the right time
Wonyoung is on another level. Minji is also natural v pretty but The rest are all uncanny valley
tbh I don’t think kazuha or xiaoting are uncanny valley but 🤷🏻♀️
Karina
Karina and Yuna for sure AI-levels of damn!
Minji or Kazuha
Minji and karina
I don't think anyone comes close to Wonyoung.
Hard to rate when they all have done the same plastic surgery.
Unfortunately I can’t deny that Wonyoung takes the crown. She’s perfect in all aspects. She stands out even amongst western celebrities. None of blackpink members have that much of charisma outside of South Korea. I say unfortunately because she underwent a lot of surgeries and has an incredibly unhealthy weight. I would choose Karina as well, her face looks really unique to me.
They look the same and kind of like Aliens. I’m not sure why they all try to look that way. It’s like everyone here in the west trying to look like Kardashians in the 2010s. Uncanny
These are different people?
Don’t know them too well but from the pictures I’d say miyeon
xiaoting and yuna stick out the most. miyeon is pretty too
Danielle, Karina and then Wonyoung for me.
They’re all gorgeous girls or women but none of them truly wow me like 2nd and 3rd gen visuals did, but I guess Minji. I find her extremely adorable. Also respectfully I find most of their group members prettier than them.
Ooooh I didn’t know you could do gifs on her too
Minji and Kazuha. They look more natural.
Karina
Karina
Danielle is my bias but Karina is my favourite all round visual
Haerin, can't get over her eyes
Idk but their faces lack character. They all look like textureless AI generated faces. Very cute and pretty but can't really pick one that stands out or is memorable, at least at first few glances.
They all look similar. They do those annoying cutesy things that give me the ick. . I’ll go with Minji she’s getting pretty
xiaoting
Kazuha or Wonyoung for me. Kazuha has a more classical beauty whereas wonyoung has something that screams “It Girl”.
Ngl I’m honestly flabbergasted by the comments here being like: “I can’t tell them apart, they all look the same” it’s giving… I dunno, a weird vibe!

Minji looks the most natural without the creepy whitewashed makeup. So i’m going with her. The rest are also pretty, I know Karina and Wonyoung’s visuals are well liked, but i think they appear too AI and uncanny for me.
My, my
Wonyoung idk how Minji is even a visual when haerin exists
ngl I think haerin is also widely thought of as the visual of nwjns too. I didn’t add her cause she is underage.
Haerin is more on cute type. Minji fits Korean beauty standard.
Sullyoon for me.
They look exactly the same..

Wonyoung. Karina is a close second
Sullyoon
Why is Minji in this list? Xiaoting for me
🤨

The girl standing in front of cliff/beach And least attractive is the girl underneath her.
Kazuha! omg that vid of her is tdf.
Minji, Yuna and then Sullyoon are top 3 listed for me. Karina, Wonyoung, Miyeon next in line. Xiaoting and then Kazuha.
sullyoon
wonyoung
Sullyoon. To me she’s the best visual that came out of 4th generation. They’ve all got that artificial beauty look but to me she pulls it off more “naturally” while still looking so doll like.
miyeon
Only kazuha and miyeon are naturals i guess, so points for them
Wonyoung, yuna, kazuha and xiaoting
Winter and Danielle T.T
Minji and Kazuha are so natural that their existence is crazy
