This is a small thread to appreciate those K-Pop idols who are both the main vocalist and the leader of their groups, because their responsibilities are surely heavy. When it comes to this, whose name do you immediately think of?

In an idol group, the main vocalist is often the position most appreciated by Korean netizens. In addition, the leader is also a crucial position that will affect the success and durability of a group. These 2 positions are extremely important, and there is an interesting fact that although there are and have been many K-Pop idol groups, there are only a few groups where the leader is also the main vocalist - so few that we can make a complete list here, from Gen 1 to the present. Let's see how many of them you know.

Some notes:

  • This list is based on the current leader of each group, excluding former leaders (if there has been any changes).
  • Only groups with 3 or more members will be included.

Among the names mentioned above, Korean netizens are quite surprised to see Lovelyz's leader Baby Soul. The reason is that when it comes to the main vocalist, many people will immediately think of member Kei with outstanding vocal, visual and solo career. However, Baby Soul is also one of the main vocalists of the Woollim girl group. She seems to have not received the spotlight that she should have.
