    A former Cube Entertainment trainee, Matthew is representing his current label, MNH Entertainment, while he competes on Boys Planet. His handsome visuals and smooth vocal abilities have made him a fan favorite of the global group of contestants on the show, giving him a promising chance of ending up as one of the nine finalists.

    Recently, however, it’s his apparent visual similarities to a popular third-generation K-Pop idol that has netizens talking. The topic became the subject of a post on an online Korean forum, but opinions seem to be split pretty heavily on the matter.

    • “Yeah, they look alike.”
    • “I’ve been hearing this a lot.”
    • “He kind of looks like Xiumin’s younger brother.”
    • “Yeah, they could pass as cousins.”
    • “The masters also said the two of them look alike.”
    • “They talked about this on the show, too. Haha.”
    • “A lot of viewers were talking about how they resemble each other back when [the episode] aired.”
    • “Even those who don’t watch ‘Boys Planet’ know about how the two of them look alike.”
    • “They looked alike back then… but as the show continued, I didn’t really think the resemblance was all that strong, actually.”

    However, comments from international fans seem to lean more towards the thought that they don’t look all that similar.
