However, the current images of the rookie idol tell a different story. Jiwoong’s recent uploads accentuate his adorableness and softer side. His makeup and style have been seemingly curated to emphasize a more endearing, youthful image, prompting netizens to attribute the transformation to the common change in style that K-Pop idols usually undergo after debut.
