This Is What K-Pop Would Have Looked Like In The Joseon Period

1. gugudan‘s Hana

Hana’s bringing the Joseon dynasty to the 21st century.

 

Plus she’s is cute as a button in her traditional gat.

 

2. VIXX‘s Hongbin

Hongbin could have easily been a young nobleman.

 

He looks incredibly dashing in his clothes.

 

And when he smiles he looks especially handsome.

 

3. Weki Meki‘s Doyeon

Who says only guys can be emperors?

 

Doyeon easily pulls off the red emperor robes.

 

With her mischevious personality, she would make an unpredictable ruler.

 

4. Wanna One‘s Ong Seongwoo

Ong Seongwoo looks like he walked straight out of the past.

 

If not for his turtleneck, he could easily have been mistaken as a Joseon prince!

 

5. Oh My Girl‘s Jiho

Jiho looks like she’s ready to rule with an iron fist.

 

Or perhaps she’ll woo her subjects with her sweet looks.

 

6. NU’EST‘s JR

JR paints quite the kingly picture.

 

He is certainly a visual masterpiece!

 

7. GFRIEND‘s Sowon

Sowon is also ready to rule over Joseon.

 

Or rule all of our hearts!

 

She looks like she would listen to her subjects and consider everything they have to say.

 

8. ASTRO‘s Eunwoo

Eunwoo looks like a kind nobleman.

 

He also looks quite handsome!

 

And he’s made even more striking with a flower crown!

 

9. Cosmic Girls‘ Seola

Seola may be the leader of Cosmic Girls but she could have been the leader of Korea during the Joseon period.

 

It’s even easier to see her in the role when she’s dressed as the king.

 

She would probably have been just as good running the country as she is leading her group.

 

10. BTS‘s Jin

Jin as a nobleman is a whole different aesthetic.

 

He looks so fresh and yet timeless.

 

And probably made a lot of people weak in the knees with his good looks.

 

11. Red Velvet‘s Seulgi

Seulgi is cute as ever in her king’s hat.

 

Even if she is having trouble keeping it on her head!
