• "His visuals depends on the angle" — RIIZE's Wonbin sparks debate over his looks as viral photo circulates

    RIIZE's Wonbin is sparking conversations online due to his visuals.

    On January 7, a post about Wonbin started trending on Nate's community board Pann, titled "Is RIIZE's Wonbin Really Handsome?"

    One netizen commented, "He looks good when he's expressionless, but not so much when he talks. His handsomeness depends on the angle."

    Other netizens chimed in with their thoughts:

    "He only looks good when facing forward without any expression."

    "That's why Sungchan always wins in visual votes on female community sites…"

    "SM's marketing strategy is strong, but I can't warm up to him. He just reminds me of Hannam every time I see him."

    "This seems like typical promotion tactics by SM fanatics."

    "It's weird and cruel to debate whether he's handsome based on his smiles or emotions."

    "We need to limit the number of Wonbin posts each week; it's becoming excessive."

    "It's unusual to see a male idol's appearance scrutinized to this extent."

    "Critiquing someone's looks like this is just disgusting. What's the point?"

    "He's never looking to the left again."

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
