1. Hyorin
Though Hyorin is primarily known for her out-of-this-world vocal ability, her appearances of Unpretty Rapstar confirmed her rapping skills as well! In this particular battle against Yubin, the two idols dissed each other's K-Pop groups. Those are some serious fighting words!
2. B.A.P.'s Daehyun
Though Daehyun from B.A.P. is a vocalist, MCs on variety keep asking him to rap for them! Being the good sport that Daehyun is, he does it every time and surprises us with a rap that's way better than we anticipated! Having a main vocal that can also rap shows the incredible flexibility of the members of B.A.P.
3. Super Junior's Donghae
Donghae of SuJu is the lead vocalist of the group, yet is always seen rapping parts in English and Korean! In this particular video, he did a cute little English rap for the radio show they appeared on. Donghae has rapped in a number of SuJu songs, as well as in many live performances! Fans fawn over his multi-talented abilities!
4. Jessi
Most people know Jessi has a rapper, however, she originally aimed to become a singer! Because of that, we've included her on the list of singers who can rap! Because of her capacity to belt and spit, we believe that Jessi is one of the most balanced singer/rappers in K-Pop. She has impressive skills to boast in both facets.
5. PENTAGON's Jinho
Jinho from PENTAGON serves as the group's Main Vocalist! However, we noticed that when they were forming the group, Jinho showed off his sub-rapper skills in a KTV setting! Many fans were surprised to see that not only does Jinho have the voice of an angel, but also is completely skillful when navigating quick raps!
6. BLACKPINK's Jennie
Though Jennie is technically a main Rapper in BLACKPINK, she also serves as a Lead Vocalist! Because of her dual talents, she has earned herself a place on this list as one of the powerhouse vocalists who can rap a bar or two in their free time! It can be seen in her pre-debut days that she has had the skill to rap in her the entire time just waiting to surface with a group that fit her talents!
7. Red Velvet's Wendy
Wendy of Red Velvet serves as a Main Vocalist for the group! She constantly wows fans with her amazing vocal talents, but who knew she could spit verses just as well as Irene could? She's not someone to shy away from the challenge when the mic is given to her, and it shows! Wendy is seriously a multi-faceted idol!
8. BTS' Jungkook
BTS' darling maknae, Jungkook, is another extremely talented idol that possesses the capacity to both sing, rap, and do pretty much anything else asked of them! Jungkook has had raps in BTS songs before and has been asked a multitude of times to perform on the spot in variety. Though he is not a rapper, he always rises up to the challenge and we're always impressed with what he comes up with!
9. APINK's Bomi
Though Bomi does hold the title of Rapper in APINK, she primarily serves as the group's Main Dancer and Lead Vocalist. In this snippet, we see Bomi getting down to iKON's "Rhythm Ta". Although Bomi is such a dainty and pretty girl, her rapping sound is gruff and dynamic! The perfect match for her song of choice!
