From Poses To Lighting: Selfie Tips From 6 K-pop Idols To Make Your Photos Stand Out

When it comes to taking selfies, K-pop stars do it a lot, whether it's for their photocards or social media. Since these global stars have a lot of experience in the selfie biz, who else but them to share the best tips for a better selfie? While their good looks and clear skin definitely help make their selfies stand out, perhaps these few tips also play a role in creating a 'photocard-worthy' selfie. If you want to step up your selfie game, check out these tips from these six K-pop idols. TWICE Mina (트와이스 미나) According to TWICE member Mina, the best tip for an enviable selfie is to find a spot with good lighting. She also recommends setting your camera higher at a 45-degree angle – not too much, not too little. Incorporating simple poses could also enhance your selfies. Try doing a finger heart or a peace sign when taking the photo to add pizazz! I-DLE Yuqi (아이들 우기) Yuqi of I-DLE's selfie tips all lie in the poses. A simple one she demonstrated was the 'flower pose' where you rest your chin on the palm of your hand. She also said idols often do the 'cheek heart' pose, where you curve your hand and put it beside your cheek. Another pose she recommends is winking, but having your face close to the camera to add some cuteness. ENHYPEN Sunoo (엔하이픈 선우) ENHYPEN's resident selfie master, Sunoo, has a lot of tips for the best selfies. First, he recommends checking yourself in a mirror to ensure you look good. He also said the lighting is crucial, so make sure not to have shadows in the photos. Lastly, tilt the camera to highlight your best angle and make your face look smaller – and voila! The perfect selfie! I-DLE Miyeon (아이들 미연) I-DLE member Miyeon is so dedicated to taking selfies that she even has a video on the topic. While her video focuses on taking selfies at photobooths, you can apply the same tips to phone selfies. In her video, Miyeon recommends wearing something that complements your skin tone. She also used props in some of her photos, so try those out if you need help with poses. SEVENTEEN Jun (세븐틴 준/文俊辉) The tips that SEVENTEEN member Jun shared might not be conventional, but sometimes going against the norm can give you the best results. Unlike the others, Jun recommends taking selfies in a dark room but raising your phone's brightness to illuminate your face. He also said that taking mirror selfies without makeup can make your skin look better in the photo. aespa Giselle (에스파 지젤) Giselle from aespa is known for having a strong selfie game – and it's thanks to this unexpected app. In one of the group's vlogs, the idol revealed that she uses Snapchat to take selfies. More specifically, she uses the flash feature. She recommends using the ring flash rather than the regular flash because it gives the photo a more airbrushed finish. Now that you've gotten all the tips from these idols, all that's left is to practice, and you're on the way to better selfies! Which tip do you think is the most helpful?

South Korean actor Park Jun Hwi caught cheating with co-star Woo Jin Young; half-naked pic, intimate convo revealed

South Korean actors Park Jun Hwi and Woo Jin Young are embroiled in a cheating scandal. According to an Allkpop report, picture proof of their affair was posted on Park's Instagram account. The internet speculates that Park's fiancée caught the actors red-handed. (Also Read: Park Bo-gum expresses his love for I-DLE's Minnie: 'When I heard her voice, I was completely…') People were shocked when they saw pictures of Park and Woo on his Instagram stories. One picture showed them sitting together on a sofa with their heads bowed down, with Park sitting in only underwear and a T-shirt. Another was a photo of intimate conversations between the two that the website translated as: Park: Can I go shower after I change? Woo: Is it okay to shower? Park: Since I'm showering with the door closed, there won't be any sounds. Woo: It should be okay, right? Park: Yep. I'll close the door. Raise the volume. Park deactivated his Instagram account as the news picked up and pictures went viral. Park was engaged to his girlfriend, and fans speculated that she was the one who exposed their affair on his Instagram. According to the publication, one person wrote, 'From the photos, it looks like the fiancé caught them red-handed and took the photos and posted them.' Another said, 'The fiancé is smart posting the photos on the guy's public account.' One commented, 'Wow, the first photo totally looks like it's from a cheating scene…' Another noticed, 'He's only wearing underwear in that photo? Wow…' Park and Woo were co-stars in the stage play Bare: A Pop Opera and Park was also part of Nijinsky. Production company Show Play Entertainment announced on 5 June that both actors have withdrawn from their performances due to 'personal reasons'. The statement read: 'Actors Park Jun Hwi, who played Peter, and Woo Jin Young, who played Tanya, have withdrawn from the performances due to personal reasons. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused to the audience due to the actors' withdrawal and the resulting casting changes. Those who wish to cancel or receive a refund due to the casting changes can do so without any fees through the ticketing agency.' Kang Byung-hoon and Park Do Yeon are stepping in for Park and Woo in Bare. Both actors have yet to release a statement on the controversy.

I-DLE's MINNIE To Make Special Appearance In KL This July

Although she has admitted she's not the best at replying to messages, I-DLE (아이들) member MINNIE (민니/มินนี่) still made sure to answer fans' calls for her to visit. The 'Queen Card' singer has now been confirmed to make a special appearance in Kuala Lumpur next month! Following the success of the recent BRICE Truffle launch event featuring 4 members of TREASURE, ecoBrown teased fans with the promise of another K-pop idol visiting Malaysia for an upcoming event. From the silhouette photo posted online, many were quick to correctly guess that the mystery idol was none other than MINNIE of I-DLE. Yesterday (Thursday, 5th June), ecoBrown officially announced that MINNIE will be making a special appearance in Kuala Lumpur soon. Although further details have yet to be revealed, it's reasonable to assume that the 'BRICE with MINNIE' event will follow a similar format to the previous one with TREASURE, where fans had the opportunity to meet and take photos with the artists. 'Something very special is in the works for our fans and customers 💫. We will be rewarding fans with unforgettable moments with the idol, up close and personal 💕,' the brand captioned the post on Instagram. Unlike the previous event, the upcoming appearance by the I-DLE member will take place over the weekend, on Saturday, 12th July 2025. The time and venue are expected to be announced at a later date. That's not all—MINNIE is also set to make an additional appearance for another brand, Nuuna Malaysia. This event is expected to be a more intimate fan meet, similar in style to TREASURE's recent one in KL. According to the promotional poster, the session will also take place on the same day at 5pm, with the venue yet to be revealed. Are you excited to see the idol live in person? While we wait for more information, how about enjoying her single 'Blind Eyes Red'? Sources: Instagram (1)(2) What's your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0

'K-Pop Big 2 Super Concert' Featuring GOT7's BamBam & I-DLE Cancelled; Organiser Issues Statement

It's only the first week of June, and things are unfortunately not off to a good start. Back in April, it was announced that GOT7 member BamBam (뱀뱀) and members of I-DLE (아이들)(formerly (G)-IDLE) would be performing in Malaysia at a joint concert on 14th June. The idols were scheduled to take to the stage at the K-pop Big 2 Super Concert at Stadium Merdeka, and fans have been eagerly anticipating the event. Sadly, concert organiser Live Universe Ent announced yesterday (Monday, 2nd June) that the concert has been cancelled. Here's what happened: Live Universe Ent issued an official statement informing fans that the K-pop Big 2 Super Concert featuring BamBam and (G)I-DLE will no longer proceed, as the concert permit was not approved. The statement reads: 'Despite our best efforts and full compliance with all regulatory requirements, the concert permit application was unfortunately not approved, leading to the cancellation of the event. We sincerely apologise to all fans, artists, sponsors and partners for the disappointment, and thank you for your unwavering support.' The organiser also stated that all ticket holders will receive full refunds via Ticket2U, and details of the refund process will be sent by email. Shortly after the announcement was posted, fans were understandably upset by the news, with many beginning to speculate about the real reason behind the cancellation. Some questioned how the concert could have been announced and ticket sales launched in the first place if the organiser was still awaiting permit approval, describing the move as extremely risky. Others suspected that the event was cancelled due to poor ticket sales, as Stadium Merdeka was simply too large a venue for a two-act K-pop concert. Regardless of the reason, fans were looking forward to the show and had booked flights and accommodation, only for it to be cancelled. At the time of writing, neither BamBam, I-DLE, nor the agencies have commented on the cancellation. We hope that this doesn't affect future plans of performing in Malaysia, as we're not always considered during tour announcements.
