It's not a surprise that Kai made it on the list, as he is known to be a fashion icon within the K-Pop community for being able to pull of different types of looks, from preppy, laid-back, to a more punk style.

Not only that, but Kai isn't afraid to challenge himself with new styles, which can be seen back during EXO's promotions for "Obsession," where he flaunted a crop top and challenged the norms. No wonder numerous high-fashion brands, such as Gucci, love him!

Within the K-Pop community, BTS is known for their laid-back fashion when they are off-stage, but when they are attending events and performances, the seven-member boy group sure knows how to dress like they are on a fashion runway!

With BTS now being the global ambassador for luxury fashion brand Louis Vuitton, they are sure to bring in more influence with their impeccable fashion sense.

Congratulations to BTS and Kai for making it on the list!
