do you like aegyo?

no. naturally being cute is fine though. it's the intentional exaggeration of trying to be cute that is cringe.

Are idols naturally cute or is that the image they are meant to portray which includes them doing aegyo?

I feel the aegyo is just an extra for fun. Idols can be both naturally cute and also serious and I've seen some that don't need the aegyo and just ooze cuteness naturally

yes and no...

depending on the context and why they are doing it...

It's dumb lol

I like good aegyo. Yes, there is good and bad aegyo.

Only if they do it the Sooyoung way

No. I always look away or skip the video whenever aegyo happens.

I do 'cause I love watching them getting embarrassed while doing them. The aegyo expressions are not cute (depending of the idol tbh, some are indeed cute), but their embarrassment is lol

My sig is this one below for a reason (he's visibly embarrassed doing this lol)

no, even more when the idol seems uncomfortable doing it

If they do it because they like to do it it’s ok. I could do without it but the forced ones are cringy.

Then there is some who don’t need to do aegyo on purpose they just naturally cute.

It does not bother me but I don't wait for it.

depends on whose doing it. If it's natural for them, I love it, otherwise it could be kinda cringy

What's the difference?

I can't describe it in words but here's some good aegyo:

Only Mashiho. Hyunsuk's is cute but it lacks...ownership?

Though many users here would find these disgusting.

In general, just watch a large group's Weekly Idol and compare the members who end up on the highlight reel with the members who don't.

No, I feel like slapping the idols when they do aegyo
