The list of course must start with the heart of the Korean entertainment world: Lee Jun Ki. This actor turned model turned singer turned everything under the sun is easily one of the most recognizable faces in Korea today, but here's something not many of you may know about him: he is in fact not a woman. Now I love this man, more than I should, but being him would be that much greater because honestly he can do anything he wants and millions of people will still worship the ground he walks on. Sure I'd have a hard time keeping my hands off myself, but what man doesn't? Lee Jun Ki looks great, is not a half bad actor, and just is a nice fresh face for Korea than someone like Bae Young Jun, who in all honesty is way past his prime.
My next selection is the ever handsome Lee Seung Ki. This boy just has a smile that can bring kittens back to life, not to mention he is considered Korea's younger brother and good boy. You can't possibly dislike this guy and so it is only natural that I, an American guy who is older than him, would aspire to be him. He has an awesome voice, a very handsome face, and I guess we could say a nice enough body. Not only that, but all boys want to be him and all girls want to get with him. Though the girl part I'm not necessarily too crazy about, I figure if guys want to be him and be friends with him then I should too! Besides, who doesn't want people screaming over you when you smile and say something cute? It just makes common sense to want to be him.
Depending on the day I may want to be G-Dragon (Kwon Ji Yong) that much more or that much less. But all in all, this guy is amazing. He has the talent, the fashion, the look, and the attitude. He is personable, energetic, and really not that bad to look at. I wouldn't be prone to touch myself as much if I were Lee Jun Ki or Lee Seung Ki, but I would be prone to do things like write songs about a horse meeting a zebra, drink beer while at a photoshoot, and wear pink whenever humanly possible. He personifies cool in ways that other Koreans could only hope to incarnate, but will never fully attain. He is the whatever the fancy French word is for exceptionally unique and outstanding, because in all honesty, Korea needs more G-Dragons if it is to survive in the rather culturally-competitive economy we now live in.
This boy is only 17, but is already one of the most sought-after boys in Korea. Yoo Seung Ho has started in numerous dramas, including his current 'God of Study', and always makes both the ladies and the boys turn their heads. He had a place in the sultry Brown Eyed Girls music video for "Don't Go, Don't Go", and it's really been since then that people have started to sexualize this young boy into something more than simply a kid. Who says young Korean teens don't fornicate like older ones do? Well with boys like this, it is easy to see just what drives them to do it. Granted, he is significantly younger than me and I really am not all about reliving my younger years, but perhaps if I were him, with his good looks and current position, I may rethink it. Besides, things 'taste' better when you are younger.
Now he isn't the best looking, not the most talented, and does not necessarily have the best personality, though it does not preclude him from being good looking (which he is), having talent (which he does), or being funny (which he is quite good at). However, Big Bang's Seungri (Lee Seung Hyun) has possibly the one thing that the other Big Bang members, most Korean actors, and perhaps even most Korean musicians lack: the overwhelming love, affection, and support of Korean homosexuals. Now I am not using the term homosexual in a negative way, I mean actual gay Koreans who are attracted to men. Overwhelmingly, when I ask Korean gay guys who their favorite Big Bang member is, or even open the door to just entertainers or 'ideal guys', Seungri outnumbers anyone else you may think. Sure, they like their pretty boys, but they like their boyish boys so much more. Seungri can go either way, for those who catch my drift, and that makes him the ultimate boy in my book, and therefore the most desired guy in the Korean entertainment world that I would want to be.
