A huge percentage of BJD owners and enthusiasts are anime/manga fans, but there's also a growing number of those who are K-pop fans. I happen to belong in both categories! ^o^b
Majority of doll companies are based in South Korea, so it's no wonder there are dolls and doll accessories being produced that bear striking resemblances to famous K-pop idols. Of course, there are also fans who model their dolls after their favorite idols. Here are some that I found:
|
Souldoll Tae's promo photos look a lot like Big Bang's T.O.P. Check out those eyebrows! |
|
LUTS has wigs inspired by infamous Kpop idol hair. This one looks like BEAST's Hyunseung's hair from their Shock days. |
|
From LUTS again, this time taking inspiration from SHINee's Key's hair from the 2009, Year of Us era. |
|
Dream of Doll's styling for this A&D looks very much inspired by another SHINee member, Jonghyun. |
|
The owner of this Volks Heath did an AMAZING job remaking TVXQ's Jaejoong's Mirotic album photo. |
|
Doll Granado's V-01 looks like it was sculpted to look like TVXQ's Yunho. The eyes, nose, lips and face shape tell it all. |
I also remember seeing Super Junior's Sungmin carrying around a BJD of himself in their movie,
Attack on the Flower Boys!
|
Looks like a Volks. Can you tell the sculpt? |
