Is this a blog post in praise of one particular member of the K-pop group Twice?

Yes, yes it is.

Dahyun is the kind of girl I wish we had more of in the United States. A celebrity with a really offbeat sense of humor, who is allowed to use her offbeat sense of humor as part of her brand. In fact, Dahyun first gained notoriety by going viral (in Korea). This girl is a literal meme.

(Thank God she signed with JYP, the personality-focused Korean entertainment company, which lets her be herself.)

I mean, in Twice’s recent comeback, where they all played both male and female leads of famous movies, Dahyun not only dressed as the titular assassin-for-hire in Leon: The Professional, but she went all-out with the beard and everything.

This is not an Elle Fanning type who is afraid to get her hands dirty and thinks of her image above all. This is someone who genuinely puts her heart into what she’s doing.

There isn’t enough of that in the world, so Dahyun needs appreciating.

(She even dressed as Leon in a livestage of “What is Love?” even though she could have dressed as her elegant infomercial character.)

And in addition to singing and rapping, she plays the piano.

More Dahyuns, please.
