What does " ikemen " mean? (its japanese)?

Question

thats how it sounds like

Answer 1

good looking boy

handsome man

cool man

ikemen= iketeru + men

iketeru = cool, alpha pup

men is men (English)

It's a rather new word.

Answer 2

"ikemen" I believe comes from "iketeru," an expression that means "cool" + "men" another word for "kao," meaning "face." So it's not just good-looking, but a man with attrative FACIAL features. Since it is only used for guys, some say the origin of the word is "iketeru" + the English word "men."

Answer 3

Ikemen comes from Japanese ikeru "cool", "good", "exciting" and men (面) "face". It is used for a good-looking man, The men in ikemen has nothing to do with the English word "men".
