BABYMONSTER Has No 'Visual Hole' – But Debate Sparks on Who Stands Out Best

A debate ignited after fans chose who they think should become BABYMONSTER’s “main visual.”

Who do you think it should be?

BABYMONSTER Rora, Pharita

On June 15, an internet user took to Nate Pann to express their opinion on who should be the visuals of YG’s rookie group, BABYMONSTER (also known as BAEMON).

Every group in K-pop culture has the so-called “main visual,” or the one considered as the “most attractive” in the group. Most of the time, they are also the “face of the group” and the “stan attractor.”

Meanwhile, a “visual hole” refers to the member whose looks don’t match the group, and can be often considered as the “least attractive.”

In the comments’ section then, the majority of the K-Netz agreed among themselves that BABYMONSTER has no “visual hole,” and said that the members’ looks are in harmony.

  • “There is no visual hole in BABYMONSTER, everyone is so pretty.”
  • “BABYMONSTER has a great harmony between the members’ skills and physical appearance.”

BABYMONSTER Rora

While this is a good thing, netizens stated that they are having difficulties in identifying who should become the main visual because all of them are uniquely gorgeous.

In the article, the OP then highlighted Rora’s beauty and implied that she should become it due to her natural beauty.

  • “She’s innocently pretty.”
  • “Rora stands out best because Koreans absolutely love looks that are innocent, cute and pure.”
  • “I thought Pharita was the main visual, but Rora is the confident, innocent visual. Sandara-Jisoo’s innocent lineage is continued by Rora.”
  • “Rora also seems to have a good personality.”

BABYMONSTER Ahyeon

However, there are fans who think that among the members, the “stan attractor” Ahyeon should be considered as the main visual. During their pre-debut, she was the one who went viral and introduced BAEMON to non-fans.

  • “They’re all pretty, but Ahyeon is the only one who can stand out as the most visual among idols. Also, there are too many members, so it’s hard to see each and every one of them.”
  • ‘”To be honest, Rora feels more average than the other visual members. BAEMON’s average value itself is high, but there are no visual members with confidence like other groups, so it’s a bit disappointing. Personally, out of all BAEMON, Ahyeon looks the prettiest.”

Aside from the two aforementioned, there are also high numbers of netizens who selected Pharita and Asa, leaving positive comments.

  • “Asa is the most respectable one.”
  • “Asa is so pretty, really my taste.”
  • “Pharita’s looks in person are crazy, she’s so pretty.”
  • “Pharita is the main visuals for me.”
  • “Pharita is also tall, well-proportioned and pretty.”
