The flood of idol groups has started. Even with competition between idol groups, they each have their own characteristics and concepts. However, if you examine each of the members in the groups, you will be able to find some similar characteristics among the members.
Outstanding pretty appearance, Flower Idol…in charge of faces
There is a representative of ‘flower idol’ in each group. With pretty appearance that others are contented just to look at them, their role is to increase their group’s recognition (by public) during their early days of debut.
Thailand price Nichkhun, ‘Boys Over Flowers’ JiHoo sunbae Kim HYunJoong, SNSD Yoonah and Tiffany, DBSG JaeJoong, etc are some of the representatives. In addition, Wonder Girls SoHee, Uee with great potential recently, Kara’s Goo HaRa, T-ara’s JiYeon, Super Junior’s ShiWon, etc are not to be missed as a representative of ‘flower idol’.
Talent than appearance...base idol
There is a member who, even though appearance is not as outstanding as compared to the other members, has a prominently outstanding singing talent than anyone else.
Walking the base road to becoming a singer, the representatives of ‘base idol’ includes god’s Kim TaeWoo, Fin.K.L’s Ok JuHyun, etc. In addition, 2AM’s ChangMin, SS501’s Heo YoungSaeng, SNSD’s TaeYeon, DBSG’s Junsu, BigBang’s DaeSung, etc, are also some of the representatives. Even though they don’t have an outstanding appearance to boast about like ‘flower idol’, their magnificent singing talent stabilizes the group’s performance and helps them secure a group of faithful fans.
===================
Okay, I do agree that Young Saeng has the best voice in the group, but to consider him with a not so outstanding appearance... I object! I guess they can't find any member from SS501 with a so-so appearance, eh? Each one of them is a Flower Idol.
