Many idols are often spotted with freckles make-up on magazine pictorials, album jackets, or photo books. Freckles are tiny brown spots on one’s skin, most of these freckles are harmless. Freckles make-up are given to k-pop idols to create an innocent and youthful image.
Although freckles can be found in every racial origin, they are most commonly found in Caucasians. Genetically, not many Koreans have freckles, but do you know that there are idols born with this unique physical trait? Well, here are 3 K-Pop idols who look cuter with their natural freckles.
Stray Kids’ Felix
Having grown up in Australia, many fans think that Felix is mixed when he was actually born to Korean mother and father. His family moved to Sydney, Australia even before he was born. During the early debut days, Stray Kids’ make-up artist covered Felix’ natural freckles most of the time. But lately, they have been putting more natural make-up on Felix that makes his freckles more apparent. Doesn’t he look cuter with his natural freckles uncovered?
