Do you know there's a special day in April dedicated to lookalikes? Every April 20 is celebrated as ‘National Look Alike Day,’ which was created by radio and television reporter Jack Etzel back in the 1980s. In Downtown Pittsburgh, he and his cameraman interviewed people about which celebrity they looked like while searching for a lighthearted news story. The segment was so entertaining that he decided it deserved an annual spotlight.
In the vibrant world of Korean entertainment, it’s not uncommon for fans and media alike to point out the striking similarities between certain celebrities. Whether it’s their facial features, expressions, or overall aura, some stars resemble each other so closely that they’re often labeled as real-life doppelgängers. But the resemblance game doesn’t stop there. Beyond looking like fellow idols or actors, some K-pop stars bear such a remarkable likeness to fictional characters—from animated heroes to fantasy icons—that it almost feels as if they’ve stepped straight out of a storybook or screen and into reality.
