Son Ho-young is the emperor with new clothes

0821-son1.jpg

Singer Son Ho-young is indeed a fashion terrorist because in this outfit change, he forgot the rest of his shirt! Or maybe he thinks that he is actually wearing a shirt but doesn’t realize that it’s clear plastic - like the Emperor’s new clothes! And to think that he performed on stage, in front of people in this outfit! I am sure that the female fans were swooning with their bird’s eye view of the sweat rolling down his washboard abs underneath the see-through top.

At the very least, the clear plastic will keep Son Ho-young (somewhat) dry from his aptly named concert, ‘2007 Season 1 Under the Sea’ concert that was held at Olympic Hall in Seoul on August 19th.

    holy mother of… no no no. there are no words for that shirt. if he wanted to show off his abs he shouldn’t have worn a shirt.

    he should fire his stylist or get a new one.

  5. 5 hannaban August 21, 2007 at 12:07 pm

  6. 6 Chomi August 21, 2007 at 12:18 pm

    I’d totally use him as an umbrella.

    A sexy, sexy umbrella.

  8. 8 Mics August 21, 2007 at 12:29 pm

  9. 9 Vanessa August 21, 2007 at 12:30 pm

    I thought the other pic was funnier… This looks strange. It’s a good thing he’s got something to show…

  11. 11 chArmed August 21, 2007 at 12:49 pm

  12. 12 hwanheeholic August 21, 2007 at 12:56 pm

    eww that is one hideous outfit.

  13. 13 esther August 21, 2007 at 1:04 pm

    dayummmm.

  14. 14 O_O August 21, 2007 at 1:29 pm

    hahaha oh my~
    its all good.. he’s still dayum sexy!
    would’ve been awesome if he just performed shirtless… or should i say plasticless?

    doesnt jyp write his songs and inflence him. jyp is definately gay. there is nothing wrong about that. most gays are very gifted in the arts and jyp is a genius even though he samples most of his dance songs from past american r&b songs.

    im in the 25 and will be going back to korea where i was born for the first time in 20 years. amusing/enjoyable site. i can really see the difference between us and korea from reading these forums.

    korea is definately few years back. what is the facination with michael jackson?? the whole world and us knows he is a pedeofile and paid millions to families. amazing. and these boy bands looking like girls. i think korea has to really wakeup. and korea entertaiment is wondering why this femine boy bands wont work in the us????

    i really believe korea is in trouble. i now beleive why such a conservative country is so high in the divorce statistically compared to all of the world.

    this is really amazing to me. wow

    enjoy the site but fellow koreans open your eyes

    wat a small waist o_o
    wacky fashion sense but nice body lol

  17. 17 swtaznlaydee August 21, 2007 at 3:40 pm

    sanglim-
    okay. u don’t have to bash korea. korea is different from the u.s. different cultures. korea seems to love feminine boys. also there are certain hairstyles that only asians can pull off. it seems to me that south korea these days are becoming too americanized. don’t forget your culture, you guys.
    -someone needs to talk to son ho young and bada about their fashion choices. they are so talented but overlooked because of their crazy styles. >_<

  18. 18 sanglim August 21, 2007 at 3:59 pm

    hey i think teenage girls loving their boybands is very healthy. but 21 year old men acting like and looking like girls is questionalable.

    you do know you teenage girls are not the only ones in love w/ these feminine boys. there are thousands of old homo sickos also in love with your boys. these sicko target the asian countries.

    also why does korea have such a high divorse rate. wtf there are customs where you dont kiss during the dating courtship. i am beginning to think that grls develop later than teenage girls in america. a 16-18 year old american girl wants to be grownup and mature and act like a grownup adult. in korea, a girl at 25 still wants her idol to be boyish at 29 years old. wow

    and then when he starts getting facial hair, winkles at 35, the girls are too immature and depressed. it really should be a serious study to figure out why for the benefit of the country.

    *sings YMCA*

    hmm who else could be in the Korean line up for a cover version….

  20. 20 Naqiyyah August 21, 2007 at 5:12 pm

  21. 21 ed August 21, 2007 at 7:26 pm

    *shudders*

    i guess if you want to be a celeb you have to be shameless
    it’s not like he WANTED to wear that…did he? D:

  25. 25 Jane August 21, 2007 at 10:24 pm

    he needs a new stylist..

  26. 26 Amy August 21, 2007 at 10:41 pm

    I don’t care if he wears a plastic bag over himself–as long as it’s see-through!! :P
    Yeah, in all truthiness, he probably should’ve just not worn a shirt at all if he wanted to showcase his bod, but I’m not complaining.

  27. 27 Pualani August 21, 2007 at 10:56 pm

    totally agree w/ Anna. The material is like the one your bathroom kit when your travel. Yea..he would have been better off not wearing a shirt, cuz this shirt distorts the image of his abs w/ all the sweat splatter on the plastic…hehehe.

  28. 28 Maha August 21, 2007 at 11:35 pm

    JESUS.

  29. 29 blahblah August 21, 2007 at 11:41 pm

  31. 31 blahblahbon August 22, 2007 at 12:28 am

    The shirt is ridiculous, but that fact that Son Hoyoung is RIPPED, totally makes it okay^^

  32. 32 jess August 22, 2007 at 12:52 am

    Dear lord, he looks FAB.snap.U.snap.LOUS.snap! C’mon… flared bell bottoms and a see-through plastic shirt? He belongs on a rainbow colored float with oiled and shirtless vinyl hotshort-suited cops. He is so proud.

  33. 33 Rainy_x_DaySs August 22, 2007 at 1:23 am

  42. 42 YeXing August 23, 2007 at 6:30 am

    His shirt reminds me of my friend’s umbrella. Perhaps its time to get a new stylist…

  43. 43 Carmela August 23, 2007 at 7:31 pm

    Oh my…..

    It’s like because he is in a hurry, he forgot to wear the right clothes but instead he wear a plastic cover….. Hahaha!!!!! LOL

    Man, get a new stylist….. Gosh….. But that is hilarious LOL

  44. 44 Z September 17, 2007 at 8:29 am

    god if hes going to wera something like that then he might as well just wear nothing on top. I think everyone would be happier with that.

    he looks a little bit like seven though.

  48. 48 liz07 March 19, 2008 at 3:50 am

    Reminds me of JYP’s clear pants!

  49. 49 Barry August 8, 2008 at 6:36 pm

    I guess he had to wear it due to his image consultant. I think the image consultant thought it looked trendy on him and might have made him look more sexier!

  50. 50 lev August 9, 2008 at 2:55 am

    @ sweet: Yeah, maybe it’s the haircut?

    Should’ve worn a different shirt. e.o Or a regular tee for crying out loud; so when he dances, he flashes a little of this and a little of that and the fan girls go crazy from the tease. XD

  51. 51 Chaos August 15, 2008 at 5:00 am

    Lol, he obviously just wanted to show off his packs 8D;
