Kapanlagi.com - South Korea is a country with a relatively high beauty standard, which is why K-Pop idols strive to appear according to the standards set by society, such as having fair skin, a very slim body, long legs, and being petite. There are many idols who struggle to achieve that look.

However, some K-Pop idols choose to maintain their body shape, even though they do not meet the beauty standards of South Korea. These idols feel confident and shine with the talent they possess.

Here are 5 curvy-bodied K-Pop idols who do not meet the beauty standards set by South Korean society!

1. Nancy MOMOLAND

Nancy is a member of MOMOLAND, this group itself debuted on November 10, 2016, under MLD Entertainment. Nancy is a mixed-blood K-Pop idol, her father is American and her mother is Korean. Nancy is known for her beautiful appearance and her face is very much a mixblood.

Nancy is the visual of her group, MOMOLAND, although usually the visual of a group is a member who meets all aspects of South Korean beauty. However, Nancy is different, she has a fuller body and is not as slim as her fellow members in other groups.

2. Hyolyn

Who doesn't know this group that is synonymous with summer? Yes, this group is SISTAR. SISTAR is a second-generation group known for songs that are associated with a sexy and fresh image of summer. Hyolyn is the leader and also the main vocalist in the group.

Hyolyn has a appearance that is far from the standard of beauty that exists within South Korean society. Hyolyn has such exotic skin and a body that is so curvy like an hourglass, with that body posture she actually attracts a lot of attention.

3. Jihyo Twice

Jihyo is the leader of the famous South Korean group Twice, which is a group under JYP Entertainment that debuted in 2015. Jihyo herself initially received a lot of bullying from K-Netz due to her body shape being considered full and not in line with South Korean beauty standards.

Thanks to the bullying, Jihyo went on a very strict diet, so now she has a curvy body that is admired by all women. Jihyo has a strong charm, powerful dancing, and exceptional vocal strength.

4. CL

CL is the leader of the legendary group 2NE1. CL is more famous for her badass and western style compared to other K-Pop idols who show more of their Korean style. Born on February 26, 1991, with the full name Lee Chaerin, she is one of the first K-Pop idols to attend prestigious events like the Met Gala.

This is because CL also has a fashionable style and a strong character. Despite having a curvy body shape and being different from typical K-Pop idols, she is confident in her body and shows her freedom.

5. Hwasa MAMAMOO

Who doesn't know this member of MAMAMOO? Yes, she is Hwasa. Hwasa was born on July 23, 1995 and her real name is Ahn Hyejin. Hwasa is famous for her unique voice and has become an icon of her group, MAMAMOO. Hwasa is also known for breaking the beauty standards in South Korea.

Hwasa often gets bullied, and even her vocal teacher once said that she has a great voice, but her body posture and visual don't sell, so the teacher thought she wouldn't succeed. However, Hwasa proved them wrong. She became a famous singer and a member of a famous girl group. She has a curvy body and exotic skin, and she said that if she doesn't fit the beauty standards, she will create her own standards.

Being different or not meeting the beauty standards in our society doesn't mean we are ugly or inferior to others. Being different is not a mistake, being different is good, and the most important thing is to be yourself.
