So, this article was released on AKP this week about the top 10 idols to take home to your parents (as chosen by some of the artists making their round of promotions) from SBS Inkigayo Magazine. Here are the results:
Females:
1. IU
2. Taeyeon (SNSD)
3. Sandara Park (2NE1) and UEE (After School)
4. Woori (Rainbow)
5. Victoria (f(x))
Males:
1. Jo Kwon (2AM)
2. Jay Park
3. TOP (Big Bang) and Doo Joon (Beast)
4. Yonghwa (CN Blue)
5. Sung Gyu (Infinite)
Jo Kwon was chosen because of his actions on "We Got Married" (WGM) and for a thoughtful remark that was made by him. You can read the full article here: http://www.allkpop.com/2011/06/who-are-the-top-idols-to-take-home-to-parents
So, seeing as I'm female, after reading this, I decided to put together my own top 10.
10. TOP (BIG BANG)
I choose him because of his weird personality and masculine image. He's the perfect combination of gentleness and innocence and manliness. Just by looking at him, you can see his masculinity come forth, but it's not overpowering and I don't get the sense that he's trying too hard. Also, he's a bit of a dork, which makes him approachable and sweet.
9. Youngwon (Dalmatian) and Yunho (DBSK)
The cuteness of Dalmatian is my 9th choice. His adorableness, witiness and talent make it easy to love him. I guess it's only his appearance that I'm going on why I'd take him to meet my parents, but he's definitely made the list.
Yunho, the leader of DBSK, has made my list for the same reasons as TOP. His masculinity is undeniable, which is definitely a plus. Not to mention the dude is incredibly talented and good looking. He also has a caring nature that made him look like the father figure of DBSK, which shows that he'd be a good father.
8. Daesung (Big Bang) and Dongwoon (B2ST)
Daesung is definitely one of the sweetest idol stars in the K-pop world. He placed in number 8 because of this factor. With a sweet smile always ready, a warm and tender heart and a personality that is sure to make everyone around him smile, he is a perfect candidate to take home to meet the parents. Add to that the fact that he has his head screwed on straight and a successful career and you've got an almost perfect man.
Son Dongwoon is one of the most respectful idols to ever grace the stage. His western looks make him all the more attractive. He's always ready to clear up any misunderstandings that involve him, even to the extent of apologizing, even if he wasn't in the wrong. Add to that his family background (mainly the father who is also very open minded, opinionated and intelligent), and you've got a pretty worthy person to introduce to the family.
7. Sungmin (Super Junior)
Super Junior's king of cuteness - Lee Sungmin. Smart, handsome, and talented are three words that can be used to describe this young man. He is often overlooked; something that is bound to happen when you're a member of a group consisting of 13 members (yes, I still include Han Geng in the count). But his hard work has made him the understudy for the main vocals and dancers in the group. Added to his success as a musician, he also has a knowledge of Chinese martial arts, which I know would be comforting to my father (I'm an only daughter). Also, his family background is pretty decent, as well as his finances, so if things go wrong, he would still be able to live comfortably.
6. Brian Joo
Number 6 on my list is none other than the talented Brian Joo. A handsome young man, with amazing vocals, and a loveable personality, Brian Joo is probably one of the most eligible bachelors in the Korean Entertainment Industry. Seeing as I'm from a Christian family, his firm belief in God and his strong Christian principles also gave him high marks on my scale.
5. Daniel (Dalmatian)
<--- Just look at the adorableness in the photo. He's respectful, talented, handsome and since he was raised in the United States, his English is flawless. He has a fun personality (which is evident in the videos that he and Yoseob posted online during their trainee days) and a serious swag (which you can detect in every single one of Dalmatian's MVs).
4. Soohyun (U-Kiss)
Okay, sure he's not THE best looking idol star ever. But he is handsome enough. And he's a total gentleman (reference "U-Kiss Vampire"). Every parent wants to make sure that their daughter is treated like a total princess, and with Soohyun by her side, this is more than just a possibility, it's an inevitability.
3. Kim Hyun Joong (SS501)
First off, I must say that it killed me to put him in third place, simply because I LOVE THIS MAN!! However, this is the list of who I would take home to meet my parents and so, he placed third. His lovable, comfortable personality can easily put anyone at ease. And although he's not very affectionate, he is very thoughtful and loving (as seen in Double S variety shows). Also, his 4D personality ensures that there's never a dull moment when around him.
2. G-Dragon (BIG BANG) and Siwon (Super Junior)
Respectful, talented, hard working and ambitious, GD falls in second place. Even when his concept (in MV's and such) demand a bad boy, he still manages to look sweet and adorable (excepting the videos from the old days - he managed to look semi-gangster). Not to mention that he is definitely one of the most successful idol stars EVER.
Choi Siwon, considered the handsomest member of Super Junior, tied with GD for second place. Reason being, I'd be able to communicate with him (in my native tongue), he's a talented actor, he's a very astute Christian and he's very masculine. He also comes from a very influential family, meaning that if his career in the entertainment industry flops, he'd still have money to live off of comfortably (even if he has a family to support). Also, he is a serious martial artist, and has studied the Chinese martial arts for years, meaning that whoever he marries won't have to worry about being attacked when she's with him.
1. Yang Yoseob (B2ST)
Yang Yoseob placed first on my list. Although he's not my ideal type, he's not far from it. The reason I think he's THE perfect man to take home to my family is because of his childlike cuteness that contrasts sharply with his adultlike maturity and sense of responsibility. He is one of the few idols that constantly reprimands his fans when they step out of line; he's almost like a father figure towards his fans. He also takes his work very seriously, going beyond what is required of him to be the best. Add to that his natural talent (vocals and dance) and the most lovable personality in kpop. So he's my number 1.
