We talk a lot about the big names and comebacks, but I’m curious — which K-pop idol (soloist or group member) do you think is underrated and deserves more spotlight? It could be someone with amazing vocals, crazy performance skills, or just a unique personality you feel more people should know about.


Drop the name and a quick reason why you think they deserve more attention!

I believe that Taki from &team deserves much more recognition for his incredible singing, dancing skills, and visuals!

i really think kim doah deserves more recognition. she has the stage presence, vocals/rap, and dance skills, along with amazing star quality. i just wish she was more popular, or more successful as a soloist, or that fanatics (her old group) had gained more traction while they were active ◞ ‸ ◟

I think Ni-Ki from Enhypen deserves more attention because He has been through a lot and doesn't deserve to be depressed because of Mean and arrogant fans.

ngl, i think enhypen as a whole is pretty successful fr. but true on that. compared to enhypen, another bg that i think was totally snubbed and scrutinized in the public eye is the boyz. especially juyeon from the boyz, he deserves better fr.

Yes I was talking to my friend about that like two weeks ago!

ik this thread is for k-pop, but i just wanted to talk about my fave hkt48 member (now graduated), jitoe nene. not only is she a great vocalist, but she gives her all on every stage and is really hardworking. her visuals are great too. it breaks my heart how criminally underrated she is, even in 48g spaces ◞ _◟

i'd also like to mention kwon eunbi. since her solo debut, she’s had such a distinctive, theatrical aura surrounding her releases, and if you follow her socials, you'll know it's authentic to her artistry as she acted in theatre plays before. she’s a strong vocalist and is known to work closely with her choreographers, even contributing to her own choreography.
her latest track, hello stranger, is one of my current favorites, and her b-sides like magnetic, croquis, amigo, and blue eyes are consistently great. i just wish she was more popular and promoted better, she deserves to be a big name k-pop soloist fr.
i also wish the discourse surrounding her focused more on her artistry rather than just her physical appearance, because she’s so much more than a pretty face. underwater and the flash are really incredible title tracks that deserve far more streams imo.

I've heard Shownu isn't the most popular but with popularity changing so much its kinda hard to say what its like now, espically since he debuted in a unit with Hyungwon. If I'm correct I believe Minhyuk is seeing steady growth right now to, especially since his clip of feeding sea gulls has gotten a lot of traction online.

I think there was a point with Chen where he was both, but a lot of fans have been coming around since is been a while he announced his marriage and kid, he's seeing a steady increase.

Least Popular? Haemin and Kyungmin

Most Popular: Jaeyun, Yoonsung and Seungheon

But popularity could be different for 8Turn in Korea and just my opinion. During Road to Kingdom I heard a lot of fans talking about Myungho and Minho, it might just depend on the comeback and styling to
