• We-ell how about Jang Geun Seok's hair at the start of YAB? Eeew...

  • agree with that as well.

  • LMAO =)) I was actually expecting that "oil slick" hair style in this list as well. =))

  • it's all about tastes. i love all his hairstyles in YAB, i wish they came back (any of them)

    • Me too.
      I'll ahve to disagree on the majority of the list:
      LOVEEEE JGS's VARIOUS 'DO's in YAB. My fave is actually the one everyone dislike..the one in the beginning, with the bangs.
      I Liked Hwan's hair in BL, Ji Heon's as well.
      I think men who wears ankle length pants are stylish.

  • i'd take that style over his ahjumma hair he'd kept since M3 anyday

    • That's not ahjumma hair. Those are elegant, soft, curling locks that have their own lustre. It's a hairstyle any woman would die for... err.. except it's on a man. =/

      You're right. That was weird.

  • Agree. Jang Geun Seok is so gorgeous in M3 and I was surprised by his ugly hairstyle in You're Beautiful. And I hate LMH hairstyle in both Boys Before Flowers and City Hunter.

    • LMH's hairstyle in Boys Before Flowers was done on purpose because the comic it was based on, the character had curly hair. Which the female lead commented on so he straightened it only to have his heart broken when her pictures of sleeping in the arms of a stranger showed up. I know it wasn't a good look but there was a reason for it is what I'm trying to say.

  • i agree...when he changed the style, I was like "thank the drama gods!"

  • love all JGS's hairstyle on YAB!

• huh? I get the references and totally agree with you. And there I was thinking the looks were due to cultural preferences. No offense meant. Just being honest. Maybe you'll find me thinking melookinggreat but actually looking funny too.

  • There are differently cultural differences. Far too many Korean men where I live wear clothes that I swear are meant for women. I was on a date with a Korean guy, and he showed up with the exact pair of women's rain boots I own. Needless to say, there wasn't a second date.

    • hahaha. So you don't go for the "couples look"? Anyway, bad fashion aside, Korean guys are cute.

    • Oh Katrine-I was laughing lol reading that. That would definitely be really bizarre.

• I'm sorry but I totally love the bench scene (Full House)....was passing by sorry....I think I'm as stupid as Song Hye Kyo, you'd make me smile if you go buy me KOREAN ice cream LOTTE okay....MELONA yummy! I love that BENCH SCENE DON'T MURDER IT!!!!! :-( wahhhhahhhahha!!!! Hormones!!!! :-D

• Chae Rim's eye makeup in Dal Ja's Spring. Her hair too. I probably started that drama 10 times before I could actually get into it because her styling was SO BAD. Lee Min Ki is a saint and a half for putting up with that hair and makeup because any boyfriend equivalent for me would be a deal breaker.

  While it didn't bother me at the time, looking back at Lee Min Ho's BBF hair, I cringe a little. I never thought it looked bad on him, but maybe now that he's been in a couple of dramas where he looks like a real person...the perm looks dumb. It doesn't help any that the way it was cut, at certain angles, it looked like a permed mullet. Ewwwwwwww

  • Agree 100% about LMH's hair in BBF. It was just... terrible... but it couldn't be helped D:

  • Well, the curly hair never seemed to work out for any HYD incarnation. MatsuJun's hair just looked messy in the first season of HYD. In the second one, he looked like a poodle. By the time they got to the movie, they had it just about right. Meteor Garden didn't even try with Jerry Yan...I can't even picture him with curly hair!

    • Yeah. Maybe it's a time thing for me. I didn't think Matsujun's was TERRIBLE when HYD came out way back when...but looking now....it's pretty bad. His Kimi wa Petto hair (while not great) was MUCH better than the Domyouji hair, and also curly. Why Japan?

  • masumoto jun has naturally curly hair, and if u read any of the the manga's either boys before flower or kimi wa petto u would realize that they stayed true to the characters.

  • I thought Chae Rim still looked pretty and pulled the hairstyle off pretty well. But she wore make-up all the time, with that line above her eyes! Even in bed, etc., that kind of annoyed me, because, honestly, who would really do that? XD

    • I think it was based off a manga and that was the look of the main character so they were trying to stay true to it.

• Song Hye Kyo's wardrobe in Full House didn't exactly impress me either...

  • but it suits her petite size, so so cute.. well, i always love her so pls ignore me :-)

    but spot on with Le Shin's wardrobe, gaddd, all those pastels & polka dots..

    • Oh and I think that drama actually brought a fashion wave for cropped cardigans. =/ never owned one, never will.

• actually in my opinion jiheon hairstyle is needed to emphasise his character which is "slam dunk" fans...so its not for nothing......

  • Oh my God, I had the exact same thought!
    That be some Miyagi Ryouta hair.

  • HAHAHAHAHA!! =)) I never thought about it though I used to be a Slam Dunk fan. XD You're so right! XD

• What about Hyun-Bin's wardrobe in Secret Garden?

  • Awww, I liked most of his outfits in Secret Garden, tracksuits aside.

  • Ha! I agree Natus- His shimmery glittery track suits were the worst!

    • i remember HB telling in the BTS that the tracksuit should be leave alone for Jo Won because he's not gonna wear something like that.. LOL

    • I actually liked them.. *cough*

  • well..i liked his style even the tracksuits which i think was suppose to enhance his character’s personality...because he could never understand wat was wrong with the tracksuits... i think the idea was that to Hyun-Bin character (who was very materialistic) it didn't matter how the suits looked like...after all they were hand stitched and probably costed a lot... so in his mind how can somethng that cost so much not be good...and he regraded the people who didn't quite get this as ignorant people who wouldn't understand....

    or it could have been a running gag...either way when i saw him in those clothes i thought yup thats him being him.

  • Whattttt? His wardrobe is sooooo effing stylish (the tracksuits doesnt count 'cause its for the humor). His collection of cardigans and suits are the shiettt! He's one of the best dressed K-Hero, EVER.

  • HATED his justin bieber hair. Same with Bae Soobin in 49 Days.

• I despised Bong Woori - Hwang Jung Eum's hairstyle and fashion in Can You Hear My Heart.
  OMG. There were times when I was watching and all I was thinking about is "When are they going to give her a makeover?" She wore the most horrid sweatshirts, and her mushroom cut wasn't even cute. (I liked the red bag though.) Then there was a makeover scene and the only thing they did to her hair was part it in a different section.

  Oh and I also couldn't stand Gyuwon/Shinhye's ankle long skirts in Heartstrings. *shudders*

  • I think maxi skirts are the fad now. Shin Hye's wardrobe in Heartstrings makes me wonder if her stylists just raided a Forever 21 store. Hehe.

  • Bong Woo ri's haircut was the worst offender. They never changed her hair. All the guys changed their hair, but not Woo ri. They didn't even have to make it a makeover, just a hairstyle change would have been good. I think the few times she wore headbands it helped.

    • I knoooowww it really really didn't suit her at all...

    • I think it kinda made her get into character - if silly, simpleminded was the intended characterisation.

  • I totally agree with you, I was praying for a makeover every week and the long skirts she's in collage and its hot let her show some skin (and I dont mean that in a perverted way).

  • I hated. Hated. HATED with a passion Gyuwon's wardrobe in Heartstrings. I just went on a rant about it the other day.

    I'm finding, that stylists in these dramas work on the far ends of the spectrum. They never go to the middle and it drives me bonkers.

• Argh you just made my day...this post is so funny. I didn't like the "bra" lady in Full House either. ugh and I agree Rain's wardrobe in Full House wasn't exactly easy to look at.

  Side note, may be the fur coats made them warmer? xP

• I think your opinion just a view from East Asian style and I totally disagree about that. From what i see when i saw the poster and promotion picture, JH's hair has represented "childish" mode of the man. In many western movie, this style represented most of "mocked" people who always have good/innocent personality. So it's really picture who JH should be.

  I think lots of J-style/K-style fan around the world have problaly lost normal sense (which i say neat and straight) of fashion and it's really bothering me ever since. No offense, but someday you can be confuse if you see man as woman style, not just a view, but also a personality of man and it's not good. Still this thing is what special of J/K style.

  • "I think your opinion just a view from East Asian style and I totally disagree about that."

    Except, dramas are by definition marketed towards their domestic audiences (they're not really intended for international viewing, no matter how much we love them), so it only makes sense to look at them from an East Asian style.

    And sometimes, bad fashion is just bad fashion.
