Appearing in front of the public with a perfect appearance without any flaws, do idols have
any secrets?
What are the truths behind that beauty?
In this video we will compile everything about the secrets and truths behind the striking
visual of Kpop idols!
Skincare tips
Being in front of the camera regularly, whether it's filming music programs or appearing at
press conferences and airports, the skin of idols is always the first thing that gets
noticed.
Many famous idols have been discussed by Korean netizens when their skin is not perfect.
That's why these idols pay great attention to skincare.
Having to wear makeup regularly, with a hectic schedule and working around the clock, idols
need to take care of their skin to prevent acne.
Here are some skincare tips from top K-pop idols.
First, there is the nation's first love, Suzy.
Suzy once surprised fans with a video of her removing her makeup and washing her face,
revealing perfect skin that was even more beautiful than when she had makeup on.
So what is her secret?
Suzy has shared that she uses the 424-method, which specifically involves removing makeup
with oil for 4 minutes, then rinsing with warm water for 2 minutes, and then cleansing
the face with facewash for 4 minutes.
Additionally, on the Get It Beauty program on OnStyle channel, Suzy also shared that
to have bright, smooth skin, it needs to be beautiful from the inside out, so she also
pays attention to anti-aging.
After washing her face, Suzy will soak her face in the water for a while before using
serum.
The second person with relatively smooth and fair skin who easily passed Getty Images'
rigorous standards is none other than the youngest member of the BTS group, Jungkook.
In 2016, he received a lot of criticism for his acne-prone skin during a music performance
show, but he later diligently took care of his skin to treat the acne.
During that time, Jungkook was going through puberty and had a packed schedule of activities
and promotions, which caused his skin to be constantly stressed and breakout.
Later on, he shared that he always carries a bottle of vinegar to wash his face.
It is known that a few drops of vinegar mixed with water can cleanse the skin, reduce clogged
pores, and effectively prevent acne.
In addition to having clear, acne-free skin, artists also pay attention to the steps for
whitening and brightening the skin.
Shuhua of G-IDLE is a girl with a fair, bright skin tone compared to other members, and because
she has beautiful skin, she is not shy to show off her beautiful bareface.
In an interview with Allure, Shuhua shared 6 skincare steps for beautiful skin from the
inside out.
The first step in skincare is face-washing.
Without using hands or face cloth, Shuhua purchased a facial cleansing machine because
when washing with a machine, the skin is deeply cleaned and it helps to exfoliate and stimulate
blood circulation, making the skin brighter and more vibrant.
Next, she will use a warm towel to apply on her face to open up the pores for easy absorption
of essences.
After that, the G-IDLE member will apply toner to remove any remaining dirt after washing
her face and moisturizing her skin.
Essence is an indispensable product in the skincare routine of any idol, including Shuhua.
Choosing a product that suits the skin's needs is a top priority for beauty enthusiasts.
Next is moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated, making it more firm and soft.
Finally, Shuhua shared that when she is active outdoors, she likes to use a facial mist to
balance the skin's moisture level at all times.
In addition, having youthful skin is also a concern for many women.
41-year-old beauty Song Hye Kyo also has smooth and firm skin.
The star of "Full House" revealed that she maintains a healthy lifestyle and regularly
applies face masks to achieve her current flawless skin.
Song Hye Kyo's healthy lifestyle includes: avoiding staying up late, exercising, eating
a healthy diet with enough nutrients, supplementing with vitamins through eating fruits, and drinking
2 liters of water per day.
The actress believes that even if she buys many eye creams, they will not work if she
stays up late, so she trusts in taking care of her health for beautiful skin.
Developing a habit of exercising not only helps maintain a good physique but also promotes
metabolic processes, improves blood circulation, and makes the skin smoother, firmer, and younger-looking.
Secrets to staying in shape
Frequently appearing on camera to wear the most beautiful clothes, idols must strictly
diet and exercise regularly.
Pilates is a form of exercise that helps people lose weight through exercises that increase
muscle strength and burn fat.
It not only helps people get healthier but also improves posture, increases concentration
and coordination of the body, and finally helps you sleep better.
This is a discipline that many idols have recently practiced, such as Rose and Jennie
(BLACKPINK), Taeyeon (SNSD), and Yeri (Red Velvet)...
The benefits of Pilates can be seen in idols like Rose, who improved her thigh gap after
practicing this discipline for a while, or Yeri, who had a beautiful face but not a perfect
body, and has had a perfect six-pack since starting to practice Pilates daily.
Besides, many idols such as Lisa, Hanbin, Jungkook and recently Jimin have shared their
moments of practicing boxing.
Idols often choose to exercise regularly with boxing to both maintain a slim figure and
strengthen their muscles.
This sport can be considered a HIIT workout because it burns quite a lot of calories.
After practicing boxing, you will feel healthier as your heart and lungs are healthier, blood
circulation is better, and you can avoid diseases like diabetes.
In addition, this exercise can help you improve your concentration as it requires the coordination
of your hands and feet and the sharpness of your brain to avoid attacks.
Strict dieting and exercise regimens alone are not enough, artists also have to manage
their eating habits.
Many idols such as IU, Umji, Seolhyun, etc. have gone through periods of strict dieting
and weight loss by consuming low-carb diets, reducing their starch intake almost entirely,
and only eating sweet potatoes.
These weight loss methods can be dangerous for those who try them, and the artists themselves
have admitted that they are not healthy.
After a period of time, they also balance their diets.
The secret behind the perfect beauty
The glitzy and glamorous entertainment industry always presents idols with a dazzling appearance,
but few know what lies behind those beauties.
Talent alone is not enough, artists need to be beautiful in order to attract more attention.
Therefore, many dark sides are revealed in order to achieve the desired appearance set
by the company for the idols.
First and foremost is cosmetic surgery.
Many idols admit to having undergone procedures to enhance their appearance.
Chayeon (former member of DIA) admitted to having a nose job on the Video Star program
of MBC.
She said she lifted her nose to make it more perfect.
Jessi also revealed that she underwent plastic surgery to achieve her desired look.
Specifically, she had a nose job, breast augmentation, and eyelid surgery.
JooE is also one of the idols who are not afraid to let everyone know that she had her
nose done skillfully.
When asked why she couldn't wear button earrings, she said her ear cartilage was used to lift
her nose.
In addition, extreme weight loss among idols when they were trainees is also one of the
dark sides.
Momo (TWICE) once shared that she went through a horrific week of only drinking water and
working out for 7 days to lose 7 pounds on the Vlive program.
Not only Momo, but Jimin (BTS) also shared that because he wanted to be part of BTS's
handsome line, he only ate one meal for 10 days, and of course, this had a significant
impact on his health.
To achieve a perfect appearance, artists need to take care of themselves meticulously, control
their diet, and may undergo minor or cosmetic surgeries to achieve a glamorous appearance.
There are many tips and exercises that fans and netizens can learn from, but there also
exist many extreme weight loss methods.
