It’s time for the third part of the Kpopalypse survey results! Let’s take a look at k-pop’s best legs for 2020!
The Kpopalypse 2020 Objectification Survey continues on as we take a look at k-pop’s best legs according to Kpopalypse readers!
As per last year, voters were asked to choose up to three nominees in each category, best first, and points were allocated as per the following system:
- Your first choice was weighted 100% higher than your second choice
- Your second choice was weighted 66% higher than your third choice
- If you doubled or tripled on choices, only the first choice was counted
- Choices after the third were disregarded in all cases
Scores were then tallied to give the final results across all categories.
The four results posts are as follows:
Part 1: FEMALE BOOBS and MALE ABS/TORSO – results here!
Part 2: FEMALE and MALE ASSES – results here!
Part 3: FEMALE and MALE LEGS – this post
Part 4: OVERALL MOST ATTRACTIVE FEMALES and MALES – results here!
Remember folks – that if you object to any of the choices here, you only have yourselves to blame as these were 100% your votes, not mine. Kpopalypse does not even cast a vote – these are NOT my picks but YOURS, and this isn’t like a rigged Korean TV show where the “judges” get a say and can overturn fan opinion. If you want to see a certain result, then it’s your responsibility to spread the surveys to the people who are going to vote for your faves!
BEST FEMALE LEGS
#1 – HWASA – MAMAMOO
368 points
(2019 position – #3)
The female legs votes were hotly contested this year with very little space separating the top three contenders. Readers determined that there was even less space between Hwasa’s thighs as she walked away with the top spot.
#2 – TZUYU – TWICE
357 points
(2019 position – #1)
Twice suffered generally in the polls this year but plenty of comeback action meant that there was no denying a place for Tzuyu among the top contenders.
#3 – SEOLHYUN – AOA
312 points
(2019 position – #2)
Rounding out the “big three” of female k-pop legs was AOA’s Seolhyun, who had nearly double the votes of hear nearest competitor, despite very little activity over the past twelve months.
#4 – JOY – RED VELVET
168 points
(2019 position – #7)
Scoring her best year yet in the poll results across any category, Red Velvet’s Joy made an impression this year on k-pop’s lower-body objectifiers.
#5 – LISA – BLACKPINK
167 points
(2019 position – #14)
Plenty of touring and plenty of memeification ensured that Lisa ascended to Kpopalypse’s picture area, scoring her best ever poll results yet.
#6 – EUNHA – GFRIEND
166 points
(2019 position – #4)
With such close margins, just one vote from Korean Indie‘s Chris P. would have rocketed Eunha straight back into the same position that she held last year. He sure is letting the team down.
#7 – RYUJIN – ITZY
143 points
(2019 position – did not chart)
2020 was the year that Itzy really arrived in the survey results. Ryujin was the legs results’ out of the box pick that came up from nowhere to score an impressive placing, beating out many past favourites.
#8 – NANA – AFTER SCHOOL/ORANGE CARAMEL
142 points
(2019 position – #17)
An old favourite who hasn’t seen any k-pop action in many years, Nana returns to picture status once again for… reasons. Maybe it’s because she wears shoes without socks, and all the people begging for a feet category therefore threw their vote in for Nana.
#9 – YOOHYEON – DREAMCATCHER
129 points
(2019 position – #19)
It was a great year for Yoohyeon. Perhaps Asian Junkie‘s readership engaged with the survey more than in previous years, as the Dreamcatcher starlet shot up in popularity in 2020 in a big way.
#10 – SEUNGYEON – CLC
118 points
(2019 position – #12)
CLC have been steadily increasing their profile over the last few years, and the poll performance of Seungyeon has also correspondingly risen.
#11 – JEONGYEON – TWICE
115 points
(2019 position – #6)
While taking a dip in the survey results due to the refusal of many Twice fans to objectify their faves at regular levels this year, Jeongyeon still performed admirably and proved herself as the not-so-hidden visual in Twice.
#12 – SEULGI – RED VELVET
108 points
(2019 position – #15)
Red Velvet had a good year in general in objectification survey results, with plenty of activity and legs-friendly outfits helping Seulgi along to picture status this year.
#13 – YVES – LOONA
104 points
(2019 position – #25)
Maybe it was all that gay sex Yves wasn’t having that helped tone Yves’ legs enough to acquire her a picture placing, or perhaps it was her stellar performance in “So What“… actually no, it was probably the gay sex.

Now it’s time once again to take a look at some hunky trunks of man-meat – yes, it’s time for the male legs category!
BEST MALE LEGS
#1 – WOW – A.C.E
298 points
(2019 position – #5)
Although surprisingly low on fanservice, A.C.E a.k.a “the k-pop group that didn’t skip leg day” had a big year anyway with Wow doing the near impossible and beating out a ton of more experienced and famous k-poppers to claim the #1 spot! Wow indeed!
#2 – SHINDONG – SUPER JUNIOR
282 points
(2019 position – #8)
No it’s not another Lisa Photoshop, those toned legs really ARE Shindong’s. Plenty of gym time (and maybe just a little subtle suggestion by Kpopalypse) paid off, boosting Shindong into the #2 spot by a big margin.
#3 – WONHO – EX-MONSTA X
182 points
(2019 position – #2)
Although he’s well-known for his upper body attributes, Wonho also made a big impact in the legs results this year.
#4 – JUNGKOOK – BTS
138 points
(2019 position – #1)
Last year’s winner may have paved the way in previous years, but took a big dip in the polling for 2020, placing a distant fourth. I guess people didn’t want to vote for him because he was “not k-pop” and therefore perhaps ineligible?
#5 – RM – BTS
115 points
(2019 position – #10)
On the other hand RM from BTS moved up significantly in the legs category, proving that it wasn’t just BTS antis invading the polling – genuine leg objectifiers probably noticed RM’s greater commitment to fanservice in 2020 and boosted his votes as a result.
#6 – KAI – EXO
112 points
(2019 position – #4)
Always a consistent poller across every male category, Kai moved down a couple spots but still kept himself relevant to lower-body fappers. Also, a word to the wise – don’t Google search “kai legs” without also throwing in key words like “kpop” or “exo”. Trust me on this one.
#7 – JOHNNY – NCT
92 points
(2019 position – #13)
As NCT mature, so do their positions in the polls, as Johnny gains significantly on last year’s performance.
#8 – SHOWNU – MONSTA X
81 points
(2019 position – #6)
Shownu’s legs are so firm that even Wonho can’t resist copping a feel.
#9 – BAEKHO – NU’EST
71 points
(2019 position – #26)
Baekho had a great year. Even though he doesn’t put them on display a lot, Kpopalypse objectification surveydoers still noticed Baekho’s legs and voted accordingly.
#10 – BAEKHYUN – EXO
64 points
(2019 position – #16)
Although many lament their supposed disappearance, Kpopalypse readers proved that they were able to still find Baekhyun’s legs just fine. Do you know how many pictures of Baekhyun’s legs online are of just his legs and nothing else? Finding a full body shot of him for this survey was difficult. Clearly Baekhyun objectifiers are on another level.
#11 – SEHUN – EXO
62 points
(2019 position – #9)
Kpopalypse has actually seen Sehun’s legs in person and can confirm the hype that they are very long is true. Kpopalypse readers also noted this as trufax and kept Sehun in the polls this year.
#12 – DK – SEVENTEEN
61 points
(2019 position – #7)
Seventeen dipped in the polls for 2020 although I’m really not sure why, but DK still scraped into picture status ahead of many major league groups.
#13 – LEO – VIXX
60 points
(2019 position – #19)
Rounding out the male flesh in this episode of the polling is VIXX’s Leo, a man not afraid to walk around in shorts for the benefit of Kpopalypse pollsters.

yesss A.C.E a.k.a “the k-pop group that didn’t skip leg day” deserved to be on the top 5
Someone remembered Seoham and I can’t be more proud
Our superstar Eunha got lots of votes because every part of her is perfect, even (especially) her sweet, wonderful legs. And our tall Sowon was at least an honorable mention, good for her.
