The first female idol that is constantly mentioned is IZ*ONE's maknae, Jang Wonyoung.
Jang Wonyoung first made her name known as a contestant on "Produce 48," where she won number one in the finale. The idol gained fame for her stunning good looks and talent... and she was only 14 years old when she debuted as the center of IZ*ONE.
Known for her exquisite face and tall, model-like figure, Wonyoung (now 16 years old) commands attention when she is performing. Talk about stage presence!
"The Nation's Little Sister" IU was also named as someone born to be an idol. IU debuted in 2008 but gained fame in 2010 for her song "Good Day," where she flaunted her high vocal range.
She now shines as not only a singer-songwriter but as an actress, starring in the hit K-dramas "Scarlet Heart Ryeo: Moon Lovers," "Hotel del Luna," and "My Mister."
We cannot deny that IU is a household name in South Korean entertainment, and it looks like there is no slowing her down!
Taeyeon, who is known as a legendary girl group member from the second generation of K-pop, is also praised as someone born to be an idol. She made her debut as the leader of Girls' Generation in 2008 and led her team to the top.
She made her debut as a soloist in 2015 with "I" and swept all major music charts in Korea.
Thirteen years after her debut, and Taeyeon is still a household name
The final female idol mentioned by Korean netizens is Red Velvet's very own Seulgi!
Seulgi's life in the entertainment industry started in 2007 when she passed SM Entertainment's infamous open Saturday auditions. She was introduced to the public as an SM Rookies member in 2013.
Though she lost her chance to debut in f(x) and went through the grueling training process for seven years, she finally made her debut in 2014 with Red Velvet!
