About Be.A’s Hongkyu’s personality
Hongkyu is one of the funniest members of the group. He is confident, and a self-proclaimed cutie. He was even confident enough to say that his own name is cute (“Yahong~kyu,” he said) kkk. One of the most interesting things about him is, in the midst of K-pop idols who postpone their military service, Hongkyu had already fulfilled his duty by the time he debuted in Be.A. Maybe for that reason, he was then appointed as the leader of the group, because he had gotten used to the military atmosphere and has the discipline as a result of his military training. He is also a very active member with a lot of active hobbies, such as playing soccer and exercising. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvJZ5xauIRA&ab_channel=LunaLoveley On top of having a look and the camera, Hongkyu is also valuing education and is interested in learning and studying, as he studied at Gyeongbuk National University and even learned a bit of Germany prior to the group’s European tour. Aside from that, he is also very affectionate, especially toward his mother, whom he loves very much. He occasionally posts a picture of his mother on his personal Instagram with a caption like, “Mom is cute hahaha,” which really warmed our hearts. Not only is he affectionate toward his family, but he is also very affectionate toward the members, and of course, to the fans.
