The Secret to K-Pop Stars’ Successful 'Selcas'! Now You Can Pose Like Stars!

Nowadays it's essential for a star to communicate with its fans through social networking sites.

The popularization of smart phones and social networking sites has made it possible for fans to connect with stars in a more intimate way. A large part of a star's marketing is done right through their own social networking sites.

Although many stars are communicating with their fans through these social networking sites, the way they communicate and the concepts they have vary vastly, depending on the star's usual inclination and the image they wish to portray to fans. Let's go into a comparative analysis on stars' poses and concepts.

Cute and Intimate with the Flower Pose

Whether it be male or female idols or actors, stars are gently framing their cheeks with both hands, like a blooming flower. Although it was once a pose reserved only for female stars trying to show off their cute and lively sides, lately it has been adopted by male stars as well, including the manly idol stars.

Sulli of f(x), who has a pure and clear image, strikes this pose in front of a colorful wreath. In the photo she is wearing a simple white shirt and black pants. Although she isn't especially dressed up in this photo, she has a beauty which outshines the flowers in the background.

Even innocent Han Hyo Joo brought joy to many fans by striking this pose in a celebratory photo of her movie 'Cold Eyes' hitting 5,000,000 viewers.

The Universal 'V' Pose... Even Stars Do It!

Whether it's a group photo or a selca, it is the single easiest pose to strike - a 'V' for victory! Even stars reflexively pose with a 'V' in front of the camera.

After School's Uee said this is her favorite pose when taking a selca. Even Lee Da Hae, who is famous for her slightly embarrassing concept, recently took a photo of herself striking this 'V' pose in a plain white tank top. The responses to this selca are very positive.

Girl's Generation Jessica, who is affectionately called 'Ice Princess' for having a cold and chic image, featured this 'V' pose in 6 consecutive photos and quickly became a hot topic. Top star Son Ye Jin also puts up a V in her photo with Eric Nam, showing off a surprising tough side.

The 'Will You Still Like Me If I'm Bizarre' Pose

2NE1's Dara and CL, who like to be unique and stay away from becoming stereotypical, recently released a photo featuring the 'wife fashion.' CL has a bandana wrapped around her head and plays the perfect part of an older woman. Both their colorful fashions remind you of an older woman who likes to wear floral pattern trousers.

Photos that feature fun props give selcas that bizarre but unique edge that give people something to laugh about. Park Soo Jin and Kim Sungeun were captured wearing radish as hair accessories, and Taeyeon posed with high dose glasses that made her eyes look comically big, bringing much joy to their fans.

G-Dragon also uploaded a photo of himself in unique makeup and blond hair. In the photo he is covering his mouth with a turtleneck, and even makes kissy fish lips instead of trying to act 'cool' in his selca. You can expect stars to continue with their different and fresh concepts in the many selca photos to come.
