Jang Geun Seok Cuts His Hair (Finally!) as Pretty Boy Gears Up for Premiere Next Week

I don’t know whether to lead with the latest stills and previews for Pretty Boy, or with the confirmed news that leading man Jang Geun Seok has finally cut his hair. A hair change for a drama role is normally not newsworthy (though Yoon Eun Hye‘s fried perm for Marry Him If You Dare did cause waves a few month earlier), except Jang Geun Seok seemed strangely attached to his long locks to the detriment of evolving his style. He did back-to-back dramas Mary Stayed Out All Night and Love Rain with the exact same hair, and it started to get old and tiresome for some of his fans. Myself included – he needs to do whatever the role requires and show me he’s still an actor first and foremost. Secret wrapped up this week and next week comes the premiere of Pretty Boy (English title Bel Ami) co-starring IU, Lee Jang Woo, and Han Chae Young. The drama press conference is right around the corner but there are lots of new stills and two teaser previews to whet the appetite. Jang Geun Seok looks a little rough around the edges when I see him in the previews, like a hard night’s partying bloat is still in his system. IU is pretty adorable as the plucky strange girl who has nursed a 10-year crush on the most beautiful man in the world. She has the sweetness to sell her type of character, though I’m already pretty fond of Lee Jang Woo’s turn as the earnest hardworking guy who falls for her. I actually don’t like the previews at all but will still check it out because I’m a rabid manga fan and sometimes the weirdest mangas make for the quirkiest drama adaptations. One never knows. Check out the latest stills and previews, plus a sneak peek at Jang Geun Seok’s new haircut look. He even posted Line and Weibo updates of his own haircut to commemorate the occasion.

      • Well when idols are starting to star in dramas instead of actors then you are 2nd lead, and of course getting older

    • poor her. first with park ha sun. and now iu. she has just boobs to begin with, not acting skills to begin with. if i were her, i'd better look after my child. he is barely 4 months old!

      • I like her better than any of the actresses you mention, so I only think poor her because she has been playing second leads. I have to say I also like her acting better than either of them, too. Both of them would probably be happy to be in the industry as long as she has been. I am also happy that she is able to to this part with a 4 month old baby. As I have said before, when my kids were that young I barely had time to shower let alone look as good as she does. I want her to be successful for her but for all the working mothers everywhere who keep getting the hate that once you have kids you should go off an hide yourself somewhere.

      • Hold on a minute,are you saying that she gave birth 4 months before AND she has that body???As a woman who knows how it is to lose all this pregnancy weight I congratulate her and I feel more miserable now because I still have some pounds on from my last pregnancy that happened several years ago! :)

      • i mean she can wait a bit longer. till 6 months old or so. isn't his husband wealthy enough though? he can manage to buy 5 carat diamond ring.. it is pretty strange to me, since i've never heard news of actress coming back to drama that soon..

    • LOL, I thought he looked horrified at all his beautiful locks of hair on the floor, like he's still in denial :) I like how he actually took photos of the shaver and scissors, as if saying these were the weapons that butchered his glorious mane, which ended up as a pathetic pile of hair on the ground :) It's like he's mourning the loss of his hair, and paying a tribute to it, which reminds me of the hilarious hair-cutting scene in Rooftop Prince :)
