The May K-stars: From Kim Seon-ho to IU, meet the Korean icons born this month
After what felt like an endlessly long April, May has finally arrived—and for Hallyu fans, that means one thing: birthday season for some of their favourite Korean stars. From Kim Seon-ho to IU and Suho, there's no shortage of reasons to celebrate (not that fans ever need one). Let's dive right in. Kim Seon-ho – May 8 1985 His dimples stole hearts in Start-Up, and he won even more love with his charming role opposite Shin Min-ah in the seaside romance Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha. After a four-year break from dramas, Seon-ho made a heartwarming return with a cameo in When Life Gives You Tangerines, playing none other than IU's husband. It's the year of Kim Seon-ho, as he has another romcom due. We're ready. IU- May 16, 1993 What can't she do? If she's not winning hearts with soul-stirring ballads, she's lighting up your screen and wrecking your emotions—whether it's the quietly devastating My Mister or her iconic turn as the fashion-forward ghost in Hotel Del Luna. After a six-year hiatus from K-dramas, IU came back swinging in When Life Gives You Tangerines, pulling off dual roles as both mother and daughter—and casually sweeping the Baeksang nominations while she was at it. Crying over IU? That's her trademark. Whether it's a drama or a music video like Love Wins All (yes, the one with BTS' V), emotional destruction is her signature move—and fans are here for it. Suho- May 22, 1991 EXO's fearless (and impeccably dressed) leader, Suho isn't just the suave frontman—he's the calm in the K-pop storm with a chaotic edge fans adore. Don't let the gentleman vibe fool you: Behind the soft smile is a sharp wit, artistic soul, and low-key sass that's become his signature. Regardless of whether he singing on stage, or being around his fans, he has a sense of grace and grit that fans always cherish. Basically, if quiet luxury had a spokesperson with a mic and killer vocals, it would be him. Yoona- May 30, 1990 King The Land fans, where you at? From ruling stages with Girls' Generation to headlining dramas, Im Yoon-ah has a genre of her own. She's got receipts too: Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2016? Check. Multiple hit dramas and films? Check. Effortless red carpet glam? Always.
