Tons of celebrities have already jumped on the trend!

Another AI portrait generator is going viral, but instead of turning you into a K-idol, you’ll be teleported to yearbook pictorial in the '90s. Tons of content creators and even local celebrities such as Yassi Pressman, Megan Young, Kryz Uy, and many more have jumped on the trend. So if you’ve been curious to know what you’d look like as part of the cast of Fresh Prince of Bel Air or you just want to relish in nostalgia, here’s everything you need to know about the retro yearbook AI portrait generator. 

What Is the EPIK - AI Photo Editor?

Many of you are probably dying to know what app is used to create this AI portrait, and it’s EPIK (pun intended). EPIK - AI Photo Editor is another brainchild of SNOW Corporation, the same South Korean company that created the Snow AI Profile app where the K-Idol AI portrait generator is found. 

Their newest and most popular filter to date is the Yearbook Themed AI Portrait, which generates vintage-looking yearbook photos of you. We’re talking big volumized hair, large framed glasses, turtle necks, and '90s clothing.
