NMIXX Haewon as RIIZE Wonbin's Lookalike? Idol's Visual Comparison Ignites Discussion in K-pop Community

On December 11, netizens gathered in an online discussion, where they talked about Haewon's airport photos. While the idol was the main highlight of the images, the OP claimed that the idol looked exactly like RIIZE member Wonbin.

"Oh Haewon looked like RIIZE Wonbin at the airport today," the post's title declared.

Meanwhile, netizens were taken aback by the claim and disagreed with the author, saying that Haewon and Wonbin didn't look alike at all. Read their comments below:

•  "Just which part does she look like Wonbin exactly?"
•  "No, but it's funny because they definitely look nothing alike. The only similar thing between them are the beanie and hairstyle."
•  "Huh? But it's literally just Oh Haewon?"

The sentiment mostly came from the fact that Haewon wore a white beanie at the airport and sported long hair draped on the sides, which gave a similar vibe to Wonbin. This aspect was also noticed by other fans, who agreed with the OP's observation.

•  "Ah, I can see it."
•  "Oh wait, I can actually see it."
•  "I kind of get what you mean right there."

International K-pop stans also chimed in with the same mixed reactions towards the photos. Some claimed that the appearance became a hot topic in social media since Wonbin had already "trademarked" the look comprising of a beanie and long dark hair.

•  "That's actually true. Wow, honestly, I can't really think of his face but in my mind, he has that kind of look."
•  "The way there's literally not one physical feature similar and it's just the beanie and short hair."
•  "I mean, no? They don't look alike at all lol. Of all the trending NMIXX posts picking this one was so random and not much of a hate post to go off of."
•  "The fact Wonbin has trademarked long dark hair and a beanie already."
•  "When did Wonbin become the founding father of beanies lmfao, I keep seeing these types of posts around Twitter K-pop stans."
