From the early 2000s to today, K-pop has always had its it-girls. In an industry known to put a premium on looks, these it-girls not only have face cards that transcend decades, but also the talent, personality, and attitude that make them that girl. There’s no set formula on what makes an it-girl in K-pop, but you just know it when you see it. And among the new generation of idols debuting in the industry, one name has been getting heads turning for all the right reasons, and that is UNIS’ Gehlee Dangca. 

Even when she was still competing on Universe Ticket, the Filipina idol had something special about her, and it continues to shine now that she’s an officially debuted K-pop idol as part of UNIS. It doesn’t take long to realize that Gehlee has that it-factor in her. But don’t just take our word for it. Scroll down if you want to see the proof. 

SLAYING COVERS

Gehlee’s time on Universe Ticket proved that she was more than just her tier-one face card. She has talent in spades and it shows in performances like her Pantropiko cover with fellow members Elisia and Seowon. They ate this internet-breaking cover up. 

GAME TO TALK TO FANS

A true it-girl doesn’t let ego or pride get the better of them. They remain humble, kind, and appreciative of the people who helped them get to where they are. Such is the case with Gehlee who is more than willing to talk to, interact, and have a little fun with her fans. From hyping up the owner of a Gehlee stan account to replying to fans on Weverse, Gehlee is down for a good time. 

SHE’LL ALWAYS SERVE FOR THE CAMERA

Whether waiting on the stairs, at the airport, entering your car, when a camera is pointed at you, you need to be ready to give what needs to be given. No wonder Gehlee is always game to serve whenever she spots the lens. And while some might think she’s being too “extra”, Gehlee is just flexing her Master’s in ganda-gandahan. She really is that girl no matter where she is. 

KEEPING HER FILIPINO ROOTS INTACT

It’s nice to see that even if she’s reached global K-pop idol status, Gehlee still has that Pusong Pinoy. Just look at how she responds to Filipino fans in Tagalog like she’s chatting with her besties. Who else in K-pop would agree to chismis with a fan? 

JOKES AROUND WITH HER MEMBERS

We love an it-girl that doesn’t take herself too seriously. After UNIS’ debut stage, Elisia understandably got emotional and started crying. And what did Gehlee do? Oh, just point and laugh in her face, which shows how close they are with each other for her to be comfortable enough to do that.
