Press and media pictures are often used by netizens to evaluate the true visuals of Kpop idols. In the competition between 4th generation female idols, groups with the prettiest lineups include ITZY, aespa, IVE and STAYC. Do they all manage to look good in raw photos taken by the reporters? Some female idols still look gorgeous in press photos as usual, but there are some that cause disappointment because they are not as dazzling as in edited pictures.
