Taeyeon opened up about the qualities she looks for in a partner during a recent YouTube interview
When asked by the host Dex about her new song “Heaven,” she shared, “Everyone has a moment that feels like ‘heaven’ to them, like having a beer at home after work or sharing a meal with a loved one. I wanted to express the pleasure of those moments in a song.” She added that watching the music video would provide a deeper understanding of the song’s message.
Dex, after seeing the teaser for “Heaven,” noted that it seemed like a breakup between lovers, which he found hard to reconcile with Taeyeon’s description.

The conversation then shifted to Taeyeon’s ideal type. Dex, eager to ask his burning question, inquired about her preferences for a partner. She revealed, “My ideal type is someone kind and gentle in even the small things, in their actions and words. I believe a lot is encompassed in being kind. Also, someone I can learn from.” She emphasized the importance of kindness and learning from each other.
When Dex probed further about additional qualities, she mentioned, “Someone who puts me first.” She explained that many people, due to their busy lives, often struggle to prioritize their partner. For her, having someone who makes her a priority is crucial.
Dex summarized Taeyeon’s ideal type as someone who is “all in” for her and asked about her physical preferences. Taeyeon replied with a smile, “I’ve mentioned this often: someone with broad, strong shoulders and attractive eyebrows and eyes. Someone with a beautiful smile.”
