SHINee member Minho is gaining a lot of attention for his noticeably more muscular body that has transformed the idol from cute to hot.

Fans began noticing Minho's beefier physique in May when the group released the music video for their title track "View."

In the music video, Minho can be seen wearing a sleeveless tank top which exposed his bulging arms.

Then fans began posting shirtless photos of Minho captured during recent concerts, and it showed off the idol's ripped chest and six-pack abs.

Longtime fans compared Minho's ripped new body to past years when he was still skinny, and there has been a remarkable increase in his muscle size and definition. The idol has likely been hitting the gym hard to achieve his more masculine new look.

Fans may be able to watch more of the beefier new Minho if the rumors of his new show prove to be true. The idol has been rumored to be joining the cast of the Korean-Chinese spinoff of Dream Team. Other potential celebrities in the cast include EXO's Xiumin, Super Junior's Eunhyuk, EXID's Hani and a few more idols.

Minho and the rest of SHINee delivered a successful comeback, nabbing many music show wins and attracting millions of views for "View" that it became the most-watched K-Pop music video in May 2015.
