I've gone down yet another rabbit hole (thanks to @yuuana, and I don't mind at all because I like this hole very much) ...
Is Kim #Seungmin currently a twink? Has he been a twink in the past?
Answering the second question first, omg yes he has.
To be fair, these grabs are from a performance where he'd just turned 19, and therefore you could say that his twinkness was peaking.
(Actually it's possible that he was even twinkier during parts of the #skzSurvivalShow, but that was filmed before he turned 18 so I'm not going to gather, um, evidence?? from that era)

#TwinkSeungmin supremacy lasted until #Maxident era, I'd say.
Since I watch so much old #skz content, I see a lot of twink Seungmin.
However, after careful study, I'd say that Seungmin is: no longer twink ???
Or no longer as *obviously* twink, perhaps. He may still be twink in his heart.
On the other hand, #Han becomes *more* twink over time.
I would theorise that there can be only one Supreme Twink per kpop boy group. But I have seen kpop boy groups that are Oops All Twinks, so I know that isn't true.
Aha here is the #TwinkSeungmin that I had in mind a couple of days ago, but couldn't find.
@lookitmychicken ok so I confess, despite years now of being a Stay, I've only recently been noticing Seungmin because, you know, fetus during the competition and my brain takes about 5-10 years to acknowledge an idol's aged even two years (we blame Jaejoong for this, that man hasn't aged more than 3 years in the last 20+), and I am rambling but yes, that might well be peak twink visuals he's giving. XD
@yuuana @lookitmychicken Seungmin is suddenly wilding as A Guy With A Forehead and it has ruined my life. He's such a gremlin and yet somehow looks grown up now that he has a forehead! I started my Staydom in 2022 as a Chan bias but in 2023 Seungmin said "are u sure" and I've suffered ever since! He's the sneaky one.
@yuuana I feel an urge to learn more about Jaejoong. From what little I have seen of him, he is very pretty and sweet. Is there somewhere you'd recommend starting?
@lookitmychicken for musical content, original flavor DBSK, which means going back to 2003/04, but that's where he got his start as their pretty center. For Jae's current sweet innocent persona, he's got a YT series where he shares a meal with various idols, mostly his juniors, though if I remember right, he started with Tablo. Those are fun, even as I end up sharing in his "oh god I'm OLD" moments with him. XD
