U-KISS member Dongho has shaken off his youthful image and transformed into a more rugged and mature man.

Dongho recently became the first male idol to grace the cover of MAXIM magazine, posing for the�June publication. He got in character for his role in the made for TV movie 'Holyland'.

With his fierce gaze and both his hands covered in cuts and bandages, Dongho was able to prove that he's definitely growing up and he's no longer that young child that first debuted with U-KISS.

His fans who came across the magazine seemed to approve of this new look as they wrote, "Never thought the cute Dongho could look so hot", "Amazing that he is the first male idol to be on the cover", and more.
