애교살 — the small pad of fat directly under the eye that creates a youthful, cute appearance. Literally 'aegyo fat.' Considered highly desirable in Korean beauty standards — associated with youth, warmth, and approachability. K-pop idols with pronounced 애교살 are often described as having an irresistibly cute visual. Some fans get cosmetic procedures to enhance theirs.

Tzuyu's 애교살 is considered a defining part of her visual — the subtle fullness under her eyes is a constant subject of appreciation in ONCE beauty discussions.
