Which Konkuk University K-Pop Idol Alumni are Considered Face Geniuses?
On August 27, 2021, YouTube channel AYO invited two Konkun University students to answer comments about the university for their "Comment Defenders" series. The two students are Lee Jung Bin, class of 2020, and Nah Da Som, class of 2021. Both students are student ambassadors of the university.
After answering a series of questions concerning how their university lives were impacted due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the two stumbled upon a comment that reads, "Konkuk University graduates are national treasure face geniuses. It is amazing. I think they have more good-looking people than the Seoul Institute of the Arts (SOPA)."
After reading this comment, Nah Da Som revealed how proud she was of this comment. She then proceeded to name actors who are face geniuses who studied in the school, such as Yoo Ah In, Lee Min Ho, and Go Kyung Pyo.
Nah Da Som then started to name idols who are alumni of the school. The first idol mentioned is TWICE member Nayeon. Nayeon entered Konkuk University in 2014 and majored in film. After debuting in TWICE in 2015, she took a leave of absence from the university to focus on her idol activities. In 2017, she revealed she would be returning to her studies, though it is unknown if she ever did so.
