Super Junior’s Siwon has been regarded as one of the best candidates. Aside from his dancing and singing skills which began to develop right from his trainee days at SM Entertainment, he has also been involved with many TV dramas lately, such as “Athena: Goddess of War,” “Oh! My Lady,” and “Poseidon.” He also branched out to acting overseas, participating in the filming of “Skip Beat” in Taiwan, as well as the Chinese movie “A Battle of Wits.” Combining this with Super Junior’s worldwide activities and tours, Siwon’s popularity is not limited to only Korea.
JYJ’s Kim Jaejoong not only possesses amazing dancing and singing skills, but he also has the ability to compose and write songs. With JYJ’s English album “The Beginning,” his music has been spread throughout Asia, America, and Europe. The album has also been voted by Billboard readers as the fifth best album in 2010. He also played a role in “Protect the Boss,” Japanese drama “Hard to Say I Love You,” and the film “Heaven’s Postman,” expanding the types of activities he participates in.
Kim Hyunjoong is also an all-around artist, as he has had much success with singing, dancing, acting, MCing, and modelling. Through his first solo mini-album “Break Down,” he revealed his masculine body as well as dynamic dancing skills. In terms of acting, he played a role in “Boys Over Flowers” and “Playful Kiss.” He was also selected by CNN as a singer-actor who will lead the Hallyu Wave.
In addition to the three idols above, other male celebrities such as 2PM’s Taecyeon, JYJ’s Yoochun, and Big Bang’s TOP are also on the radar for leading the Hallyu Wave in the future.
