Netizens debate whether they like their male idols to be slender or muscular

AKP STAFF

In the K-pop industry, there are various idol groups with dynamic concepts and looks to appeal to multiple fans worldwide.

With these various concepts that each idol groups promote, there have been various nicknames given to these groups according to the concept they fit perfectly. Over the years, the idols boasting of masculinity with built muscles were given the nickname of 'Beast-dols' for their beastly and manly visuals, while the idols with more slim and boyish looks were given the nickname 'Boyfriend-dol.'


Recently, one netizen started an online community discussion on whether netizens prefer their male idols slender or muscular. Other netizens quickly joined the discussion to give their two cents on this topic and commented on different opinions on this matter.

Netizens commented, "I think slender idols are the best," "I think Doyoung in the photo has a slender figure but has broad shoulders," "I like muscular idols but not too muscular," "I really like slender idols, I think Jungwoo has my ideal body type," "I really like muscular idols, they're more manly in my personal opinion," "I think I really like the slim slender look, I would definitely want my boyfriend to be the slender tall type, lol," "I think the slender idols can pull off clothes that ordinary people can't," "I really like Bang Chan's face," "and I prefer muscular idols."

For me it entirely depends on the individual. Some look better with more muscle, others look better with less. As long as they don't have any health problems, like eating disorders or being obsessed with exercise, it doesn't matter much anyway. If you're truly happy with yourself and confident other people will notice that.
