It is no surprise Lee Know took home first place. He is known for his stunning visuals and for how well he suits the Korean beauty standard. Though Stray Kids' official visual is Hyunjin, fans believe Lee Know deserves the title as well.
When Stray Kids was first introduced to the public, some people had even believed Lee Know was Japanese due to his manhwa-like visuals. The idol has pale skin, a small face, big, doe-like eyes with double eyelids, a slim nose with a high nose bridge, full lips, straight eyebrows, and a v-shaped face. How can all this beauty manage to be found in a male idol's selfie?!
ASTRO's Moonbin Selected as the Second Best Selfie Master Idol
Coming in second place is ASTRO member Moonbin, who took home 12.26% of the total votes. While Cha Eun Woo is highly recognized as K-pop's male face genius, Moonbin continues to attract fans with his unique look and dashing selfies.
Moonbin has a fox-like charm to him, thanks to his monolid eyes. This feature allows the male to look adorable when he chooses to be cute and charismatic when he chooses to show his cool side. Talk about duality! Additionally, the male has milky white skin, a thin nose bridge, straight eyebrows, and a v-shaped jaw.
