Which female idol would make the best porn star?

It's no mystery that female K-pop idols are pretty fucking hot. But would being hot be enough for them to make it big in the porn industry (which probably won't happen anytime soon)? Well, obviously not, because if it were, I could just put in the names of all the members of every single girl group out there (with a few exceptions) and call it a day.

No, scratch it, they look literally the same in those pictures He has the vibe of actors you usually see in Japanese drama These are the gifs of him with short-dark hair that made his fans call him Lee Know Yamazaki And you may mistake him as Japanese because of his stage name, Lee Know But it's derived from his real name. The name Lee Know has nothing to do with Japan^^ And take a look at his environment His house in his hometown is very Korean He raises three Korean Shorthair cats How should I put this post to a...
