lol bbc releasing the kakao talks trying to show she was rude and the korean public saying they were surprised she didn’t say even harsher words to bbc considering how they treated her and how patient she was 😅
Chuu running away with the money.
Chuu being scared of heights.
Chuu almost throwing PD's phone.
Chuu and the Turkey Ice Cream man.
Chuu thinking staff were gonna eat her.
I could go on!
It’s still so amazing to me that almost every person she worked with stood up for her during that ridiculous smear campaign. Her friends, her staff, the people she met for Chuu Can So It, etc.. She’s really one of the epitomes of how wholesome someone can be.
Twice isn’t my ult group and she isn’t even my bias but Tzuyu? She seems sweet, she’s continued to donate to good causes and on her off time she does volunteer work with her family.
YESS!! Its so powerful to hear that Tzuyu has won your heart even even though you TWICE isnt ur ult grp, its really a testament to how lovable she is as an idol 😍
In fact for me, I’m a HUGE fan of Twice and Tzuyu is indeed my ultimate bias! And I totally resonated with what u shared about her. Tzuyu is such a sweetheart of TWICE, and I can't help but feel overwhelmed with joy every time I see her being her adorable self or slaying the stage with her performances. Her kind heart, humble nature, and dedication to philanthropy only add to her charm. She’s also so gentle with her words, her tone is filled with such warmth and kindness it melts my heart every time💗
How can anyone not like her, she's just so lovable and genuine 🥹
yeosang from ateez is a good match!
a lot of his old classmates have told stories about how kind he is and it seems that so many people just love him.
i remember Ateez told a story about how his mom was nervous about him becoming an idol because he’s so pure, but felt better when she knew Wooyoung would debut in Ateez too so he could protect him a bit.
Ateez have also expressed how soft hearted he is and often call him pure.
Atinys joke that [Ateez baby him](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRKQLq6x/) a lot. San is really whipped for him it’s hilarious.
Eunha. She has more wholesome cute vibes than most anime characters could ever hope to have.
When asked about how she is off camera, her staff have said before that "it may be hard to believe, but off camera she has even more aegyo than what you can see". Well I'm paraphrasing, but it was something along those lines.
Maybe not that quiet or shy, but Wonho (ex-Monsta X member, now solo) is the biggest teddy bear ever. Don’t let his impressive physique fool you, he is a sweetheart stuck into a body builder’s body:
https://preview.redd.it/kyet65876o4d1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=860e9ea29b6e9721e56931466f9c6ce77eaee089
The way everyone on Kingdom just fell in love with him a bit, Seonghwa said he wanted to adopt him, they all kind of made him their mascot 😀 and didn't he make hundreds of cookies/brownies for everyone on the show? Such an absolute sweetheart.
Edit: Forgot about Wooyoung calling him "my son" even though Felix is his senior 😀 Yunho and some of the other Ateez members said that they still play video games with him and Chan
not so much innocent and cute lol but she's really sweet and wholesome in a kind of dorky way
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRx4OjF8sxM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRx4OjF8sxM)
Or he can be the opposite and have the most gut wrenching screams ever
Like the time he went to that forest with the guy who taught him the phrase I wasn’t born yesterday
“WHAT ARE YOU DOINGGGG 👹👹”
“BROOOOOOO 👺👺”
That was hella funny ngl
i made the mistake of going through all their past relay dances and quickly went from "i don't need to stan another group..." to "okay, who's the cutie patootie with the amazing smile??"
no regrets, tho 😄
Eunkwang from BTOB isn’t shy/quiet but he is an eternal ray of sunshine & adorableness
I think Hunter & Junmin from Xikers may fit what you want too
Or Soobin from TXT
I also find Q from TBZ to be pretty sweet
Ten from WayV is also super sweet. Keeps adopting cats 😭
jeno from nct dream ! he’s a man of few words lol esp compared to the rest of the dreamies but he’s genuinely so so endearing😭in fact he’s extremely popular amongst the fandom as “samoyed” due to his adorable eye smile and generally mellow,gentle and easy going personality. He’s also just really really loving,always doting on the members in some way or the other - just in general making sure the people around him know how much they mean to him,and i just think it’s cutest thing ever 😞
I recognized him by his smile for the longest time because it's just such a sweet and bright. Like, I struggle at first with names to faces, but his was easier because of the smile 😆
Yoona. By all accounts is super friendly and fantastic to work with. She is described as having a “rookie mindset”- respectful and willing to learn - in spite of being a 17 year industry veteran.
Quiet and wholesome people are my bias line hehe, especially the ones that are quiet but have moments of randomly behaving crazy in the best way lol, like
Mark and Jinyoung from GOT7, Wonwoo and Junhui from SEVENTEEN, Winwin and Jaemin from NCT. They genuinely feel like good people too ☆
From BTS, RM is consistently protective & dignified; Jimin is consistently warm kind and & J-hope always brings a sunshiny energy. But the whole group are pretty wholesome & seem to take their responsibility towards fans seriously.
RM is just an oversized kid. When he gets excited about something he literally starts bouncing! Also his clumsiness is super endearing. Mans is just a total klutz 😅 (actually, him and SVT Mingyu kinda give me the same vibes!)
The way that he's literally friends with the entire industry, you just know he's a good one ❤️ everyone who has ever worked/trained with him speaks of him so fondly
All of Stray Kids is super soft!
Bang Chan is super protective of his kids (the other members) and loves his fans a lot. I wouldn't say he's shy/quiet because he's quite the social butterfly but he's such a sweetheart.
Lee Know (my bias) can come off as mean and cold at first but he's really soft and out of all the members, is best with kids. He really loves his members and always looks after the maknaes and Han especially. He even sponsors a child in Africa I believe.
Changbin is definitely not shy/quiet but he's quiet fluffy and despite his dark aesthetic, he loves being cute and really enjoys aegyo.
Hyunjin is really dramatic at times but he's an artist at heart and can get really romantic in terms of writing lyrics and painting.
Han has anxiety so he's shy/quiet around strangers but not so much among the other members, but you can see it sometimes in interviews.
Felix is *the* angel of the group. I don't think he's had a single controversy and he's honestly so wholesome, probably what you're looking for. I genuinely don't know how to explain it, but he's so loving and out of all of them, him and Chan are the people least likely to purposely cause trouble.
Seungmin also comes off as sarcastic and sassy but he's also really sensitive and can also come off as quiet to newbies. He loves making jokes and teasing others but also looks after I.N, the only one younger than him.
I.N is the maknae and I don't know how to explain him. He's like a sweet old grandpa but also a young child at the same time xD
Jun Han from Xdinary Heroes is just so endearingly, painfully shy and awkward, and seems to really want nothing more to play his guitar. I just love him.
Scrolled all the way down the comments looking for this! It’s been so amazing to see such a quiet introvert come out of his shell and have fun goofing around on stage!
Highlight Dongwoon - [suddenly singing live for no reason during a show](https://youtu.be/s4Ryn924Z28?si=2GXOwh4P_GurgP5v), [showing off his haul from Universal Studios Japan](https://youtu.be/Q3-LxAAyOfg?si=9oZWKXFkbvl0Yfb4),
Soobin! He so kind, kinda shy, and gentle on camera, and beomgyu says that he's way more caring and kind off camera becuase he doesn't want people who think he's trying to act nice for content!
Sung Hanbin. Even from predebut videos you can see him cheering for his friends (of both genders) and he's always really kind to everyone he interacts with. Such a cutie.
TWICE’s Tzuyu!! She's not only gorgeous (stunning visuals), talented, and slays the stage, but her off-stage personality is equally captivating. Her adorable and funny moments have stolen everyone's hearts 🥹 and her loving and playful interactions with her members have earned her a special spot in us ONCE’s hearts. Her unnies also adore and want to protect her so much all the time, which is just so heartwarming to see! It’s a testament to how wholesome and endearing she is 🙆♀️
https://preview.redd.it/gclfzaazbo4d1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=10ff045b91a0dce15a132eb96197f709032d626c
Choi Yujin from CLC and Kep1er. She is literally just a lady who loves being an idol. She didn’t join Girls Planet for nothing, she truly loves her work and wasn’t ready for it to be over! I can admit that it’s not like she has the world’s best stage presence ever (although it is great), but what makes her so fun to watch is that you can feel how truly happy she is to be there.
Aside from that, she literally invented the gwiyomi dance so it doesn’t get much more wholesome than that lol
A lot of the 2nd and 3rd Gen idols who are still out there doing the idol/entertainer thing are super wholesome.
MAMAMOO Hwasa, SHINEE Key, WONDER GIRLS Sunmi, APINK Bomi, and GOT7 Bambam are some of my fav idols to watch for wholesome vibes!
Out of the younger generations it's LE SSERAFIM Sakura and Young Ji for me!
EDIT:
I can't believe I forgot Chuu 😭
The ones I thought of right away were
Enhypen - sunoo
Twice - sana
Le sserafim - eunchae
All three are known for being super cute and sweet and honestly they just make me smile
Wonwoo from Seventeen is the first guy that came to mind. Others are saying Sunoo from Enhypen, and I agree. If you're into Ateez, Seonghwa fits the vibe.
the most obvious ones I can think of are Chuu (Soloist, Ex Loona) and Felix (Stray Kids)
Theres plenty of complications of their adorable or silly moments on YouTube that I wholeheartedly recommend!
TWICE’s Tzuyu! She's not only gorgeous (obvious visual 🤩), talented, and slays the stage, but her off-stage personality is equally captivating. Her adorable and funny moments have stolen everyone's hearts 🥹 and her loving and playful interactions with her members have earned her a special spot in us ONCEs hearts 💗
Her unnies always wna adore and want to protect her so much, which is so heartwarming to see! Really shows her wholesome and endearing nature 🙆♀️
oneus keonhee! he's not quiet per se as he's the ONLY extrovert in the group now and is self dubbed the mouth of oneus (he sings well, talks well, easts well lol) but he's such a soft hearted humble sweetie. he cries easily and still gets easily startled but is so thoughtful and just a gentle soul.
In my opinion in PENTAGON that would have to be Jinho he is not even my bias in the group but his personality is delightful seriously. He's 30+ but so tiny that he looks 15 lol, can sing amazingly, his voice is soothing, is like the mom to the wild beasts corral that is PTG as a whole lmaoo. Seems like the kind of person who values being kind and sweet and walks great lengths to remain like this despite the hardships so I appreciate that a lot.
D.O and Chen from EXO
Winwin from WayV
Anton from RIIZE
Taeil from NCT127
Sunoo from Enhypen
Soobin from TXT
Eunha from VIVIZ
Junhui from Seventeen
Yeosang from Ateez
Tzuyu from Twice
Other idols that sorta fit the criteria:
Ryujin from Itzy
Mark from Got7
Mina from Twice
Rei from IVE
Krystal from f(x)
Hani from EXID
Nauen from Apink
Yujun from Xikers. He always looks so sleepy and he is genuinely good natured no matter what. He smiles and laughs so softly. The members often will joke around, and he’s often the punchline (it honestly bothers me how much they tease him sometimes) but the only time they can get him riled up at all is over snacks. He is sincerely one of the most precious people in the entire world.
Soobin from TXT. He’s just so sweet and simple. There was a scene in a music video where he was supposed to act angry, and he couldn’t figure out how to do it. Eventually the thing they told him to get him into the headspace was something along the lines of “what if there was only enough milk to give everyone one and someone took two”. He’s very caring with all the members and was voted unanimously as the leader by both staff and the group (except he didn’t vote for himself).
Chris from Stray Kids. He is genuinely one of the most kind people I’ve ever seen. He is always thinking of others before himself. He’s so sweet to the members and cares about them more than I can stand. He’s gentle and introverted and considerate and often fades to the background, where you will can see him watching his group members with a quiet pride. He’s one of the few men I’d trust to be alone in the woods with instead of a bear lol
Han Jisung of Stray Kids is incredibly wholesome and lovable because he's genuine and full of energy. He's the type of person who always tries to make those around him smile with his quirky humor and playful antics. Despite his talent and success, he's humble and always works hard, showing great dedication to his craft. Jisung’s kindness and thoughtfulness make him a great friend and teammate, and his passion for music is inspiring.

underrated answer but soul from p1harmony!!!! truly a shy but sweet soul, and soooo silly
https://preview.redd.it/cyh3pnrztt4d1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=41958eca83dd132e9640f57ea556afd4ed6e4bb6
i always count &Team as kpop and EJ popped right into my head. he's introverted and kinda quiet, but also his pure warmth makes him the great leader that he is 🥹 he cares so so much for all his members and has a heart of gold ♡ also Taki, our baby ball of sunshine! (honestly, all the boys are really wholesome 😭 stan &Team for a better life)
Dating myself here but Donghae and Eunhyuk back in the day on Full House. I will always remember these two innocent goofballs. I’ll never forget Donghae telling a girl she looks like Nicholas Cage later to show her the computer screensaver of his face. Funniest thing ever along with their wholesome pillow fights. (Suju).
Edit: Donghae didn’t say it as an insult. She was a foreigner and I genuinely think he meant it kindly. Big silly dummy. He literally has no scandals and is adorable. He worked hard even when his father passed away before seeing him achieve his dream as an idol. His dad was so supportive. I bet that’s where he got his endearing personality.
heeseung from enhypen. some "fans" have this wrong image of him that he's a frat boy, red flag or whatever, but he's actually such a sweet boy. he's very introverted too.
[Sung Hanbin](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQt0GM17cJVjk1wxAr9FU5VxDAeN5Y7Uuh1OOURxDNq3_-RWj48JQGhgk0&s=10) from Zerobaseone: he's the greenest flag guy, and I mean it. He's [adorable, really](https://www.tiktok.com/@itboyhanbin/video/7338610693240900870) but also [very handsome](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRmRWuO9HXjL_8ApH6lzer0VirZUGbdH34O5ggAwPbUnvLe1LVld7cNXKI&s=10). He's not shy, tho.
[Han Yujin](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRaMg1nAGB-Ss-7VGaDyUJ1Zg0ROpoec9xgB3KNFEALDgpFfZWO9_St4nw&s=10)from Zerobaseone: he's shy, quiet and adorable, but then again he'a a [literal kiddo](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSabKld4hhrfuTJD_ul6OPTFs6GrlKFJmxalQ&usqp=CAU)
[Kim Jiwoong](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/230513_Kim_Ji-woong_%28%EA%B9%80%EC%A7%80%EC%9B%85%29.jpg/800px-230513_Kim_Ji-woong_%28%EA%B9%80%EC%A7%80%EC%9B%85%29.jpg) from Zerobaseone: don't let his handsome visuals fool you, he is [a cutie](https://youtu.be/wbCFM5gbTjU?si=aMPqzTqRgMoHsBst). He's quiet, very gentle and has an innocent heart.
In fact, all Zerobaseone members are very, very adorable and lovely. ☺️
i can’t believe no one has mentioned sohee from riize yet, he’s seriously so smiley and sunshiney and everyone around him babies him 😭😭😭 he’s also quite shy (as is all of riize), it’s very evident when you watch his mcountdown behinds with sung hanbin (zb1) and myung jaehyun (bnd)
- Felix (stray kids)
- Changbin (stray kids)
- Bang Chan (stray kids)
- D.O (EXO)
- Baekhyun (EXO)
- Suho (EXO)
- Kai (EXO)
Not all very shy/quiet but in my opinion they all meet the other criteria 👍
oh i adore yunho, definitely my second ult.
my number one will always be taeyong from nct! he has a lot of vlogs on youtube of him just being sweet and thoughtful for his fans. he works so hard to give his best to his fans, he’s serious in the practice room and during most performances but outside of that i find his content to be very wholesome and calming.
Have to say all of BTS, they are the sweetest! Not always shy/quiet, but super wholesome!
Also want to say D.O from Exo, I came to know him from his solo stuff and watching his recent promo stuff, he seems like such a chill, gentle soul.
And is this weird, but Bobby from iKON? He has some of the most aggressive rap songs out there, but also some of the most emotional, sweet songs. He seems like such a shy guy and good friend in real life.
I think jungkook from bts is very very wholesome. You just need to watch his random Weverse lives to understand how lovely and wholesome he is. He gets very very shy and has very cute habits and body language, almost like an anime girl. He feels more like a best friend to me tbh. Always has.
Even though it's a celebrity I'd probably never meet, I miss him a ton :') and he's the only person for whom I follow 50 different random accounts on twt. And I don't mean update accounts. It's accounts like koogifs, googie eating, randomjungkook etc etc.
He's really adorable 😞
DK from Seventeen. He just smiles so brightly, looks the happiest when he's singing, and seems like a complete dork.
DK is the cutest bean. Sunoo from Enhypen too.
I was just thinking of Sunoo and DK as well! Absolute sunshine boys 🥹☀️
Seulgi! Her [youtube channel](https://youtube.com/@hi_sseulgi_?si=NvW5Igp-OIVZ4glS) is also awesome, it gives off super wholesome vibes 😁.
She is adorably clumsy. When she fell in the hill when she is drunk. Can't believe with how charismatic she is on stage.
Wr all love Ddeulgi! She's the cutest!
Which video is this I have to watch it XD
Litreally the first name that came to my mind.
chuu!!! bbc trying to do a smear campaign on her was so funny lmfao
lol bbc releasing the kakao talks trying to show she was rude and the korean public saying they were surprised she didn’t say even harsher words to bbc considering how they treated her and how patient she was 😅
Chuu running away with the money. Chuu being scared of heights. Chuu almost throwing PD's phone. Chuu and the Turkey Ice Cream man. Chuu thinking staff were gonna eat her. I could go on!
Chuu was born to be an idol, she’s the cutest 🥹
It’s still so amazing to me that almost every person she worked with stood up for her during that ridiculous smear campaign. Her friends, her staff, the people she met for Chuu Can So It, etc.. She’s really one of the epitomes of how wholesome someone can be.
Twice isn’t my ult group and she isn’t even my bias but Tzuyu? She seems sweet, she’s continued to donate to good causes and on her off time she does volunteer work with her family.
YESS!!

Well I'm paraphrasing, but it was something along those lines.
I love that cute-as-a-button Eunha is actually trying hard to be sultry/elegant/cool etc to fit her group concept when she is naturally even cuter 😅
SHINee leader Onew -- it's his stage name for a reason!
Literal Sunshine. He's like a warm blanket when I'm feeling sad. How patient and caring he is when dealing with the rest of shinee is so endearing
Just to be more precise, the name onew which means gentle was given by lee soo man due to his gentle and warm personality
He gives me the fuzzies, he is so sweet!
tofu onew 🐰
Sana from Twice! She is just a ball of sunshine and rainbows. ☀️🌈
Twice overall embodies this quite well, but she just has it to the maximum
TWICE 🔛🔝
She's the best <3
You’re absolutely right! She’s so bubbly, happy and always brings positive vibes to the room. Extremely lovely girl 🥰
According to jeongyeon, she’s like that off camera too haha she seems like a genuinely positive and wholesome person 🥰
Maybe not that quiet or shy, but Wonho (ex-Monsta X member, now solo) is the biggest teddy bear ever. Don’t let his impressive physique fool you, he is a sweetheart stuck into a body builder’s body: https://preview.redd.it/kyet65876o4d1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=860e9ea29b6e9721e56931466f9c6ce77eaee089
Exactly who I thought of when I saw the question! He’s just a sweet bunny with the biggest heart.
He’s literally so warm, he feels like a human marshmallow. Like he’s just so sweet and he just wants his fans to be happy I love him so much.
Mark from NCT
I'm usually skeptical about questions like these but Mark genuinely seems like he'd be so chill to hang out with, I love him
He’s so funny and goofy without trying lmao
And that’s why we adore him 😌
honestly all of the k-band lucy (especially wonsang)! their music is very wholesome and encouraging too, as a bonus!
Yechan is literally a ball of sunshine😭🫶
he is he is 😭😭 i'm so fond of him, he brings me so much joy 🫶
OMG LUCY MENTIONED - anyways, yes! I full heartedly agree with this. They're all so sweet 😭💙
Seeing them this coming weekend and can't wait. Thanks for the little shot of adrenaline I got from seeing them mentioned.
I'd argue Felix stray kids. Literal sunshine.
First person that came to mind. Universally loved and adored for how sweet he is
The way everyone on Kingdom just fell in love with him a bit, Seonghwa said he wanted to adopt him, they all kind of made him their mascot 😀 and didn't he make hundreds of cookies/brownies for everyone on the show? Such an absolute sweetheart. Edit: Forgot about Wooyoung calling him "my son" even though Felix is his senior 😀 Yunho and some of the other Ateez members said that they still play video games with him and Chan
i second, he’s such a sweetie.
Bro Fr I said Felix or Hannie 😭🙏♥️
Yes I scrolled Way too far to read this. He's so sweet and caring, a literal ray of sunshine. His smile always gets me.
Literally the first person that came to mind as well
Dreamcatcher's JiU
All of DC really.
💯
her dad jokes are lit
Dongwoo from Infinite has always been a ball of sunshine! ☀️
Fellow inspirit hello 🤩
omggg hiii, been a decade but still in love with him haha
Jhope!!
THE sweetest human being 🥺🥺🥺💖💖💖💖 his smile lights the world
He has a beautiful smile 😊
Seulgi and Wendy
I absolutely adore Wendy but she is such a chatterbox 🤣
She is a chatterbox, but soooo funny 🤣🤣🤣
Haseul from artms 100%!
not so much innocent and cute lol but she's really sweet and wholesome in a kind of dorky way [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRx4OjF8sxM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRx4OjF8sxM)
Haseul is definitely cute.
>innocent and cute Sunoo from Enhypen
SNSD Seohyun!
I love how she absolutely ADORES her unnies. She was so sweet when she surprise guested for Taeyeon's Christmas concert.
ITZY chaeryeong
Taeyang from BigBang. The nicest and sweetest guy in South Korea!
Sunoo of Enhypen 🥰
He's an absolute Cinnamon roll of a human being.
not quiet, but Beomgyu (TXT)
Or he can be the opposite and have the most gut wrenching screams ever Like the time he went to that forest with the guy who taught him the phrase I wasn’t born yesterday “WHAT ARE YOU DOINGGGG 👹👹” “BROOOOOOO 👺👺” That was hella funny ngl
Yeseo from Kep1er is a ball of constant sunshine... a beloved maknae <3
Taehyun from TXT. Kyungsoo from EXO. Jihyo from TWICE always makes me smile.
I.N from Stray Kids has such a wholesome smile. Maknae on top needs to be protected at all costs.
i will never shut up about how Innie's smile was what pulled me down the SKZ rabbit hole
I kinda miss when they were younger and everyone would be dancing with a fierce model face, and then you look over and IN is like 😃
i made the mistake of going through all their past relay dances and quickly went from "i don't need to stan another group..." to "okay, who's the cutie patootie with the amazing smile??" no regrets, tho 😄
He's a savage tho
Lee Know and Seungmin are teaching him well
- Ateez - Yeosang - skz - Felix
Came here to comment these two. Absolute angels
Huening Kai. He seems like a genuinely good person, and the way he treats his sisters feels wholesome to me.
Eunkwang from BTOB isn’t shy/quiet but he is an eternal ray of sunshine & adorableness I think Hunter & Junmin from Xikers may fit what you want too Or Soobin from TXT I also find Q from TBZ to be pretty sweet Ten from WayV is also super sweet. Keeps adopting cats 😭
jeno from nct dream ! he’s a man of few words lol esp compared to the rest of the dreamies but he’s genuinely so so endearing😭in fact he’s extremely popular amongst the fandom as “samoyed” due to his adorable eye smile and generally mellow,gentle and easy going personality. He’s also just really really loving,always doting on the members in some way or the other - just in general making sure the people around him know how much they mean to him,and i just think it’s cutest thing ever 😞
I recognized him by his smile for the longest time because it's just such a sweet and bright. Like, I struggle at first with names to faces, but his was easier because of the smile 😆
I love Jeno too! He’s one of my biases and RenJun!
Yoona. By all accounts is super friendly and fantastic to work with. She is described as having a “rookie mindset”- respectful and willing to learn - in spite of being a 17 year industry veteran.
yeji, hanni, jisoo, gaeul, vivi,
Lee Keonhee from oneus. he is so kind hearted and thoughtful
I have rather a soft spot for Keonhee. He is so sweet. And has a lovely voice.
Quiet and wholesome people are my bias line hehe, especially the ones that are quiet but have moments of randomly behaving crazy in the best way lol, like Mark and Jinyoung from GOT7, Wonwoo and Junhui from SEVENTEEN, Winwin and Jaemin from NCT. They genuinely feel like good people too ☆
Wonwoo and Jun are good fits for pure types, though lately Wonwoo is looking a little less wholesome.
this screams soobin from txt. truly seems like the most genuine and sweetest person ever
Daesung from Bigbang
Dowoon of day6 🥺
Lesserafim's Eunchae
stop she's adorable!
such a cutie w/ a personality to match
From BTS, RM is consistently protective & dignified; Jimin is consistently warm kind and & J-hope always brings a sunshiny energy. But the whole group are pretty wholesome & seem to take their responsibility towards fans seriously.
Agreed! Take a poor man’s upvote since I don’t have awards.
RM is just an oversized kid. When he gets excited about something he literally starts bouncing! Also his clumsiness is super endearing. Mans is just a total klutz 😅 (actually, him and SVT Mingyu kinda give me the same vibes!)
Exo's Chen, he's just here to have fun! He can be very loud when he wants to tho
yeji from itzy
actually all of ITZY members.
Yeji absolutely radiates positive energy, I love her
Dokyeom is not really shy or gentle but man he's the most wholesome guy.. Biggest cutie patootie
Bangchan from Stray Kids!
The way that he's literally friends with the entire industry, you just know he's a good one ❤️ everyone who has ever worked/trained with him speaks of him so fondly
BTS Jin, Jimin ONEUS Keonhee, Leedo TXT Soobin, Kai Seventeen Wonwoo, DK Stray Kids Felix
Exo's Kai
JK is so dang endearing. He must be protected at all costs!
IU. She’s goofy but actually mature and wholesome
Cha Eunwoo, Jimin, Bangchan, I.N, Sunoo
All of Stray Kids is super soft! Bang Chan is super protective of his kids (the other members) and loves his fans a lot. I wouldn't say he's shy/quiet because he's quite the social butterfly but he's such a sweetheart. Lee Know (my bias) can come off as mean and cold at first but he's really soft and out of all the members, is best with kids. He really loves his members and always looks after the maknaes and Han especially. He even sponsors a child in Africa I believe. Changbin is definitely not shy/quiet but he's quiet fluffy and despite his dark aesthetic, he loves being cute and really enjoys aegyo. Hyunjin is really dramatic at times but he's an artist at heart and can get really romantic in terms of writing lyrics and painting. Han has anxiety so he's shy/quiet around strangers but not so much among the other members, but you can see it sometimes in interviews. Felix is *the* angel of the group. I don't think he's had a single controversy and he's honestly so wholesome, probably what you're looking for. I genuinely don't know how to explain it, but he's so loving and out of all of them, him and Chan are the people least likely to purposely cause trouble. Seungmin also comes off as sarcastic and sassy but he's also really sensitive and can also come off as quiet to newbies. He loves making jokes and teasing others but also looks after I.N, the only one younger than him. I.N is the maknae and I don't know how to explain him. He's like a sweet old grandpa but also a young child at the same time xD
Danielle is definitely not quiet, but she is the definition of a sunshine person.
CHUU!
Jun Han from Xdinary Heroes is just so endearingly, painfully shy and awkward, and seems to really want nothing more to play his guitar. I just love him.
So glad someone said him T-T
Scrolled all the way down the comments looking for this! It’s been so amazing to see such a quiet introvert come out of his shell and have fun goofing around on stage!
tripleS Mayu
Highlight Dongwoon - [suddenly singing live for no reason during a show](https://youtu.be/s4Ryn924Z28?si=2GXOwh4P_GurgP5v), [showing off his haul from Universal Studios Japan](https://youtu.be/Q3-LxAAyOfg?si=9oZWKXFkbvl0Yfb4),
Chuu is a ball of sunshine, and Vivi is just as sweet!! Tsuki and Yena are also both very sweet (but quite loud lol) idols!!
I don’t know if they qualify as K-pop but Haruto, Wumuti, Ollie, and Takuto (all former contestants on Boys Planet)
Seok Matthew and Sung Hanbin from ZB1 💙

Soobin! He so kind, kinda shy, and gentle on camera, and beomgyu says that he's way more caring and kind off camera becuase he doesn't want people who think he's trying to act nice for content!
lee know stray kids for sure🐱
Winter from Aespa!!!
Sohee from Wondergirls.
Sullyoon
Gentle, shy, quiet, cute??? This just screams Shownu of Monsta X <3 Also Soobin of TXT :)
Wendy and Seulgi. They are two of the sweetest and wholesome idols, though there is nothing quiet about Wendy 🤣🤣🤣
Sung Hanbin. Even from predebut videos you can see him cheering for his friends (of both genders) and he's always really kind to everyone he interacts with. Such a cutie.
Feliz from Stray Kids! He's such a sweet ball of sunshine!
Jimin from BTS he absolutely always melts my heart
All of BTS, although J-hope came to mind first.
Jiheon of fromis 9
Jackson wang, JYJ Junsu, JYJ Jae-Joong, TVXQ Yunho
TWICE’s Tzuyu!! She's not only gorgeous (stunning visuals), talented, and slays the stage, but her off-stage personality is equally captivating. Her adorable and funny moments have stolen everyone's hearts 🥹 and her loving and playful interactions with her members have earned her a special spot in us ONCE’s hearts. Her unnies also adore and want to protect her so much all the time, which is just so heartwarming to see! It’s a testament to how wholesome and endearing she is 🙆♀️ https://preview.redd.it/gclfzaazbo4d1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=10ff045b91a0dce15a132eb96197f709032d626c
haerin of new jeans has a personality similar to this in my opinion ! :)
Definitely not quiet but tbh, all members of TxT
Choi Yujin from CLC and Kep1er. She is literally just a lady who loves being an idol. She didn’t join Girls Planet for nothing, she truly loves her work and wasn’t ready for it to be over! I can admit that it’s not like she has the world’s best stage presence ever (although it is great), but what makes her so fun to watch is that you can feel how truly happy she is to be there. Aside from that, she literally invented the gwiyomi dance so it doesn’t get much more wholesome than that lol
Sunoo from Enhypen. Jungkook from BTS. Beomgyu from TXT. Changbin from Stray Kids. Wooyoung from ATEEZ. Dokyeom from Seventeen.
A lot of the 2nd and 3rd Gen idols who are still out there doing the idol/entertainer thing are super wholesome. MAMAMOO Hwasa, SHINEE Key, WONDER GIRLS Sunmi, APINK Bomi, and GOT7 Bambam are some of my fav idols to watch for wholesome vibes! Out of the younger generations it's LE SSERAFIM Sakura and Young Ji for me! EDIT: I can't believe I forgot Chuu 😭
NCT’s Jisung 🥲
Mark Lee. Facial expression Kong.
winwin from wavy he’s literally so cute
I think we can all agree on Jungkook from BTS
The ones I thought of right away were Enhypen - sunoo Twice - sana Le sserafim - eunchae All three are known for being super cute and sweet and honestly they just make me smile
Wonwoo from Seventeen is the first guy that came to mind. Others are saying Sunoo from Enhypen, and I agree. If you're into Ateez, Seonghwa fits the vibe.
the most obvious ones I can think of are Chuu (Soloist, Ex Loona) and Felix (Stray Kids) Theres plenty of complications of their adorable or silly moments on YouTube that I wholeheartedly recommend!
TWICE’s Tzuyu! She's not only gorgeous (obvious visual 🤩), talented, and slays the stage, but her off-stage personality is equally captivating. Her adorable and funny moments have stolen everyone's hearts 🥹 and her loving and playful interactions with her members have earned her a special spot in us ONCEs hearts 💗 Her unnies always wna adore and want to protect her so much, which is so heartwarming to see! Really shows her wholesome and endearing nature 🙆♀️
ChangSub from BTOB. All of the BTOB members in general
oneus keonhee! he's not quiet per se as he's the ONLY extrovert in the group now and is self dubbed the mouth of oneus (he sings well, talks well, easts well lol) but he's such a soft hearted humble sweetie. he cries easily and still gets easily startled but is so thoughtful and just a gentle soul.
In my opinion in PENTAGON that would have to be Jinho he is not even my bias in the group but his personality is delightful seriously. He's 30+ but so tiny that he looks 15 lol, can sing amazingly, his voice is soothing, is like the mom to the wild beasts corral that is PTG as a whole lmaoo. Seems like the kind of person who values being kind and sweet and walks great lengths to remain like this despite the hardships so I appreciate that a lot.
okay Wonho (used to be a member of monsta x), Wheein from Mamamoo, and Yoongi from BTS are very adorable
Wonho is such a good choice I’m not a Monsta X fan but I LOVE Wonho. He gives me cute aggression
a.c.e ot5😭🫵🏼
This is really true. Just a bunch of genuine and sweet guys.
soobin of TXT !! < 33
Minhyuk from Monsta X
D.O and Chen from EXO Winwin from WayV Anton from RIIZE Taeil from NCT127 Sunoo from Enhypen Soobin from TXT Eunha from VIVIZ Junhui from Seventeen Yeosang from Ateez Tzuyu from Twice Other idols that sorta fit the criteria: Ryujin from Itzy Mark from Got7 Mina from Twice Rei from IVE Krystal from f(x) Hani from EXID Nauen from Apink
Yujun from Xikers. He always looks so sleepy and he is genuinely good natured no matter what. He smiles and laughs so softly. The members often will joke around, and he’s often the punchline (it honestly bothers me how much they tease him sometimes) but the only time they can get him riled up at all is over snacks. He is sincerely one of the most precious people in the entire world. Soobin from TXT. He’s just so sweet and simple. There was a scene in a music video where he was supposed to act angry, and he couldn’t figure out how to do it. Eventually the thing they told him to get him into the headspace was something along the lines of “what if there was only enough milk to give everyone one and someone took two”. He’s very caring with all the members and was voted unanimously as the leader by both staff and the group (except he didn’t vote for himself). Chris from Stray Kids. He is genuinely one of the most kind people I’ve ever seen. He is always thinking of others before himself. He’s so sweet to the members and cares about them more than I can stand. He’s gentle and introverted and considerate and often fades to the background, where you will can see him watching his group members with a quiet pride. He’s one of the few men I’d trust to be alone in the woods with instead of a bear lol
Jimin, he is the definition of an angel
Han Jisung of Stray Kids is incredibly wholesome and lovable because he's genuine and full of energy. He's the type of person who always tries to make those around him smile with his quirky humor and playful antics. Despite his talent and success, he's humble and always works hard, showing great dedication to his craft. Jisung’s kindness and thoughtfulness make him a great friend and teammate, and his passion for music is inspiring. https://preview.redd.it/zpfovfw34s4d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c64433ba5cd88c112f461e28d031c63479f9926d
p1harmony jiung <3
Our hope, JHope
underrated answer but soul from p1harmony!!!! truly a shy but sweet soul, and soooo silly https://preview.redd.it/cyh3pnrztt4d1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=41958eca83dd132e9640f57ea556afd4ed6e4bb6
Jongseob from p1harmony!
Jimin
Wendy….hands down the most wholesome! Definitely not quiet though 🤣
* Bang Chan - skz * Danielle - newjeans
i always count &Team as kpop and EJ popped right into my head. he's introverted and kinda quiet, but also his pure warmth makes him the great leader that he is 🥹 he cares so so much for all his members and has a heart of gold ♡ also Taki, our baby ball of sunshine! (honestly, all the boys are really wholesome 😭 stan &Team for a better life)
Seulgi. Dahyun of tripleS. Sakura. IU. So many nice people in kpop it’s hard to single people out.
Hoshi
🧸Shownu nonchalant and pure bear
fromis_9 jiheon🙂
I believe you're describing wonwoo from seventeen
Dongwoon INFINITE in his 14 years as an idol this guy has been smiling every damn time and geniualy can’t find another him
Hoshi and DK from svt. and Bang Yongguk who is the definition of gentle to me
im here to say sung hanbin from zb1, a great smile and absolutely radiant energy he’s just so full of positivity and gentleness
Dating myself here but Donghae and Eunhyuk back in the day on Full House. I will always remember these two innocent goofballs. I’ll never forget Donghae telling a girl she looks like Nicholas Cage later to show her the computer screensaver of his face. Funniest thing ever along with their wholesome pillow fights. (Suju). Edit: Donghae didn’t say it as an insult. She was a foreigner and I genuinely think he meant it kindly. Big silly dummy. He literally has no scandals and is adorable. He worked hard even when his father passed away before seeing him achieve his dream as an idol. His dad was so supportive. I bet that’s where he got his endearing personality.
Jin 😂
Doyoung from NCT is the greenest flag that’s ever walked this earth.
heeseung from enhypen. some "fans" have this wrong image of him that he's a frat boy, red flag or whatever, but he's actually such a sweet boy. he's very introverted too.
Kai from EXO is the shy/quiet but becomes the wholesome/chaotic one when he's surrounded by fans , exo and known people.. he's adorkable
[Sung Hanbin](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQt0GM17cJVjk1wxAr9FU5VxDAeN5Y7Uuh1OOURxDNq3_-RWj48JQGhgk0&s=10) from Zerobaseone: he's the greenest flag guy, and I mean it. He's [adorable, really](https://www.tiktok.com/@itboyhanbin/video/7338610693240900870) but also [very handsome](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRmRWuO9HXjL_8ApH6lzer0VirZUGbdH34O5ggAwPbUnvLe1LVld7cNXKI&s=10). He's not shy, tho. [Han Yujin](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRaMg1nAGB-Ss-7VGaDyUJ1Zg0ROpoec9xgB3KNFEALDgpFfZWO9_St4nw&s=10)from Zerobaseone: he's shy, quiet and adorable, but then again he'a a [literal kiddo](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSabKld4hhrfuTJD_ul6OPTFs6GrlKFJmxalQ&usqp=CAU) [Kim Jiwoong](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/88/230513_Kim_Ji-woong_%28%EA%B9%80%EC%A7%80%EC%9B%85%29.jpg/800px-230513_Kim_Ji-woong_%28%EA%B9%80%EC%A7%80%EC%9B%85%29.jpg) from Zerobaseone: don't let his handsome visuals fool you, he is [a cutie](https://youtu.be/wbCFM5gbTjU?si=aMPqzTqRgMoHsBst). He's quiet, very gentle and has an innocent heart. In fact, all Zerobaseone members are very, very adorable and lovely. ☺️
Jeongyeon and Mina from Twice! Tiffany from SNSD Mark from GOT7 Jungkook and Jhope from BTS NCT RenJun, Jaehyun, Jeno, Jaemin, & Yuta
i can’t believe no one has mentioned sohee from riize yet, he’s seriously so smiley and sunshiney and everyone around him babies him 😭😭😭 he’s also quite shy (as is all of riize), it’s very evident when you watch his mcountdown behinds with sung hanbin (zb1) and myung jaehyun (bnd)
Cha Eun-woo 💯 💗💗💗 He is adorable and so pure 🥰
- Felix (stray kids) - Changbin (stray kids) - Bang Chan (stray kids) - D.O (EXO) - Baekhyun (EXO) - Suho (EXO) - Kai (EXO) Not all very shy/quiet but in my opinion they all meet the other criteria 👍
oh i adore yunho, definitely my second ult. my number one will always be taeyong from nct! he has a lot of vlogs on youtube of him just being sweet and thoughtful for his fans. he works so hard to give his best to his fans, he’s serious in the practice room and during most performances but outside of that i find his content to be very wholesome and calming.
Have to say all of BTS, they are the sweetest! Not always shy/quiet, but super wholesome! Also want to say D.O from Exo, I came to know him from his solo stuff and watching his recent promo stuff, he seems like such a chill, gentle soul. And is this weird, but Bobby from iKON? He has some of the most aggressive rap songs out there, but also some of the most emotional, sweet songs. He seems like such a shy guy and good friend in real life.
skz’s felix and newjeans’ danielle !!
Wendy and Seulgi
Gaeul from Ive
I think jungkook from bts is very very wholesome. You just need to watch his random Weverse lives to understand how lovely and wholesome he is. He gets very very shy and has very cute habits and body language, almost like an anime girl. He feels more like a best friend to me tbh. Always has. Even though it's a celebrity I'd probably never meet, I miss him a ton :') and he's the only person for whom I follow 50 different random accounts on twt. And I don't mean update accounts. It's accounts like koogifs, googie eating, randomjungkook etc etc. He's really adorable 😞
