Finger Heart
The Korean finger heart pose is a trend popularised by K-pop idols, who often use the gesture to express their love and gratitude to their fans. It involves making a heart shape using the thumb and index finger, which is then directed towards someone else as a sign of affection or support. The gesture is also widely used by K-drama stars.
Apple Heart
The apple heart is another popular heart pose among K-pop idols. The gesture starts as a round apple shape and, with a playful mime of biting into it, transforms into a heart shape.
