Readers voted for EVERGLOW’s YiRen in our weekly poll (at the end of the article) to be featured this week. YiRen is famous as a member of the full package girl group EVERGLOW. They are known for delivering hit songs and executing performances in a captivating way. YiRen is known for her elegant presence on stage and that elegance translates to her visuals too. Firstly, we have to acknowledge that YiRen’s visuals are unreal. She looks like a living doll. YiRen has doe eyes and dainty features which would make her perfect as a commercial model, especially for cosmetics brands. She is a versatile beauty who can pull off any hairstyle or makeup look… … and any concept. Her beauty makes her concept photos look like magazine covers. YiRen also has an amazing fashion sense. Whether she styles herself or is styled, she shines brightly in any outfit. Her long legs and proportions would also make her perfect for the runway. It would be amazing if YiRen could get more recognition for her visuals and get more magazine photoshoots/brand deals. She truly is model material. If you knew nothing about K-Pop or EVERGLOW, YiRen would definitely seem like a model at first glance. Do you agree? Are there any idols that you would like to see in this series?
