A theqoo thread titled "PICK YOUR TYPE OF MEN FACE" drew ten replies in its first stretch, and the kitty type and the wolf type came up most often. The post asks readers to choose from a chart of animal-face categories for men, a format that has circulated in Korean online communities for years.

The original poster opened with their own pick: the wolf type. Commenters then answered in turn, and the choices overlapped more than they diverged.

Ten Theqoo Replies, Five Animal Faces: Kitty and Wolf Types Win Out

Kitty and wolf lead the replies

The kitty type was named in four of the ten replies. One user chose it alone, another paired it with the fox and snake types, a third picked kitty or fox, and a fourth called kitty and wolf "the least bad" options. The wolf type appeared in three replies: one commenter simply asked for it, another paired it with the puppy type, and the fourth reply above counted it among the least objectionable.

The fox type also showed up several times. One reader listed puppy, fox and deer together, and another named fox as a second choice alongside kitty.

Where the thread pushed back

Not everyone played along. One commenter said they disliked every option and settled on the snake type as the least bad. Another wrote that all of the faces looked cringe to them and that they could not choose.

The hamster type drew a direct complaint, with one user asking why it looked the way it did before moving on to kitty or fox. The bear type fared no better: a reply noted that the chart's version was not what people usually mean by a "bear" type. The one clearly warm note went to the bunny type, which a commenter called very cute.

The thread is small, and ten replies are not a poll. Still, it shows how animal-face shorthand works as a casual way for fans to talk about looks, with the kitty and wolf categories serving as the common reference points.
