Pop or flop: Jung Il-woo’s new haircut

0816-jung-ilwoo-haircut.jpg
Some people should never cut their hair and Jung Il-woo is one of them. Rising star, Jung Il-woo chopped of his hair to create a new image for his upcoming movie My Love (내 사랑) but it made him look like any old Chul-su walking down the street in his shorts and plastic slippers. The cut was a total flop in my book. What do you think?

Do you like Jung Il-woo’s new hair?
1) Pop: He’s still a hottie
2) Flop: He’s nothing special now

    Ugh, grow it out or get hair extension! This isn’t working.

  11. 11 mawee August 18, 2007 at 6:36 pm

  12. 12 fifi jang August 18, 2007 at 6:41 pm

    definitely not very complimenting..quite girlish looking..but he’ll grow it again..

  13. 13 Mimi August 18, 2007 at 7:09 pm

    the hairdo might be plain….But I think i’ts ok.. not a flop… there is nothing wrong with it…
    I think it suits him

  14. 14 JaeHin August 18, 2007 at 7:18 pm

    quite okay~

    I have no idea who this guy is but he is GORGEOUS! Damn! As for the hair, it’s not bad. It needs to be slightly “feathered” or swept over to one side instead on being straight across the crown of his head. That’s the only draw back. It’s not altogether a bad cut and it frames his head in such a way as to give him a sweet, boyish look without over-doing it. However, I don’t know what he looked like before, either.

    BTW, if anyone here is familiar with the Yoshida Brothers (young Japanese shamisen players) this guy strongly resembles the younger brother, especially with this hair–don’t you think? However, Kenichi Yoshida has mastered this hairstyle a lot better. http://yoshida-brothers.jp/

    However, he also looks a little bit like Park Hae-il. Doesn’t he?

    not cute. he reminds me of my students… 2nd graders with that hair. cute for the kids, but not a grown man

  18. 18 bebe August 18, 2007 at 10:44 pm

    i agree with blahblah.
    but oh wells.
    hair grows!

    Though most guys look girly with long hair, and look more manly with short hair, Il Woo is quite the exception.

  20. 20 Scrappy August 18, 2007 at 11:31 pm

    it looks fine to me. it’s not like he was very attractive to begin with.

  21. 21 jnyarcalas August 19, 2007 at 12:13 am

    He looks good both ways.

  22. 22 Di August 19, 2007 at 12:15 am

    He’s not “HOT”. But still a cutiepie. <3

  23. 23 Lynn August 19, 2007 at 1:04 am

    The guy has a cute face and cute bod!!!!!!;) Only thing is, his haircut is…….hhhhhhhmmmmmm………like he went to a random hairstylist who doesn’t know what s/he’s doing.
    My suggestion? Grow out a little bit of hair, style it, and he’ll be fine.
    Right you guys?

  24. 24 lilo August 19, 2007 at 2:19 am

  25. 25 Pviolet August 19, 2007 at 1:36 pm

    He looks cute with that new hairdo!

  26. 26 Kara August 19, 2007 at 2:15 pm

    It looks okay, average-ish.
    Anyways, that’s not the most flattering angle.

  27. 27 Leigh August 19, 2007 at 2:54 pm
