Se7en walked into the hair salon as a wannabe rapper and walked out as a wannabe punk with a bleached hawk. The moment I saw Se7en looking mighty proud of his new hairdo, I wanted to take a scissor and snap that ridiculously unfitting mo hawk off his head. No matter how you look at it, it looks like there’s a piece of ddong sitting on his head.
It’s obvious that Se7en and Rain are trying too hard to impress the West, but their desperate attempts are only provoking laughter. When will these boys learn that gigantic scarves and mohwaks will not help them sell records? Probably never, but one can always hope…
yeah, I was gonna say that he looked more western
but it’s not even bad. Just makes him looked Hot rather then
cute. It makes him look manly.
PS, this you get this info off Soompi?
becuase someone posted this already a few days ago
this haircut makes him look so much older… and i don’t mean that in the ‘mature’ way…
Ew, seriously.
I don’t know who’s worse, him, or rain for trying to be American…
What’s wrong with Rain and Se7en these days?
Why do they keep digging their own graves, at this rate their careers are going to end up in the shitter, along with their dignity.
If they keep trying to get into the american entertainment industry,and keep failing, they’re not going to have Korea to back them up anymore. They need to focus on what they have in Korea, people are going to stop caring about them if they don’t stop trying so hard to impress Americans.
Why do people always want more?
Their fame and fortune in korea isn’t good enough for them?
Pshh, it’s sad watching them do this to themselves, honestly.
i saw that pic before
but OMG YOU’RE RIGHT it does look like a piece of s*it
XD
Yea i don’t know - he looks kind of hot…I never liked se7en but I kind of do now hahahaha. I love mohawks on guys >.>
Ew if he was going to do that, he should have dyed his whole hair that color *smacks se7en upside the head* PABO!!
ok i ama punk so no problem there^^
i like his look its nice
i dunno why you guys dont like it maybe it me??
but whatever its hot man
Daymn!!! Such a big NO-NO!! Gosh*
Whole hair with blonde?? Ewww. Thats worse!! Biyan
Too think about it again, I guess the hair’s okey…just ok.
Peace out.
he looks ridiculous
Ewww.. He shoulda stuck with the old hairstyle.. It looks like he just stuck hay on his hair now..
Awwwwwww, CDW!! You disappointed me!!!:(((((
Why can’t you just dye your whole head instead of a small tuft? Honestly, I am a fan of yours, but I don’t think I’d have to lie: you look like a dalk with a HOT *drool* grown man’s bod and muscles.
Oh, yea, I was just on soompi yesterday and saw the pic….
the big scarf thing is what asians imagine to be an european/sophisticated look? so many shojo manga show this.
as for the “skunk” hair-job, it’s maybe a bit 90s for america. i remember the emo punk guys like Greenday did it a lot. at least it’s not permanent like a tattoo!!
good..he looks like a racoon.
i dun like it >.<
ok its not natural to have bond hair on an asian but its alos not natural for blonde westerners or brown haired westerens to have black hair… its just thta we see rain and 7’s hairstyles are not natural thats all.
IF they think that this will indeed help them to gain audiences in america so be it. To be honest i think we should support them trying to get into teh american industry because there arent many asians that make it big into teh american entertainment business. maybe this might just help them looking a bit more like westerners…who knows they are just trying to step up to another level thats all.
Really I used to think Se7en was really really ugly, but he looks GREAT in this picture… could be the lighting, could be the hair.
piece of ddong on his head. hahaha that’s hilarious. i guess if u look at it like that.. then it does!!! but i think he looks good so it’s ok even if it look like piece of ddong
eew. if he didn’t go blonde, then it would have been a little better. (not). now he looks 5 years older. -_-
zzzz… OLD OLD OLD OLD
I’ve heard too much bashing about his hair.
That look kinda makes him look like a ‘badboy.’
If CDW grew up in America (especially in California - where I live) and was just a regular guy, I’d totally date him.
Imagine him looking like that(and/or his “I wanna” MV) AND can speak English? That’s hot.
I gotta give him credit, he’s hotter than a lot of Asian guys here (in California).
haha yeah i saw this on soompi days ago and freaked out….i’m sure se7en will get some sense into him and fix it….OMG it’s so ugly
i still luv you tho
haha i’m making all my american friends listen to se7en so they’ll buy his album ^.^
This looks funny!
What´s wrong with these korean artist´s? Does it worth to change the image and give up yourself only to make it in the US-musicmarket? They will end as a funny copie of western artists and make themself a fool.
I am no asian, but I love K-pop and koreans for being different from the western style.
I never thought he was that hot looking, but in this pic, with the short hair, he looks good. I don’t like the blond bit though. Short hair, yes!
He looks good!
noooooooooooooooooooooooooo, his hair>.<
his previous hair style suited him better..his hair during the “oh no!” days.
I’ve ever been a huge fan of yours since your debut… but your new hairstyle… I can’t lie… Please, never dye your hair blonde again… I loved your old hairstyle so much TT^TT~~~
And to all the others who are going to make Se7en bad… how do you mean with failing in the US? I mean… let’s make a definition of “failing”. Maybe he won’t have such huge success like in Asia but I don’t think there’s really no one who’s not interested in his music. If they like it, they like it. If they don’t do, it’s okay. Please stop exaggerating! I mean we’re all here to share our opinions and I think we can do that without dong such silly comments.
And what about the Americans? Does anybody care that they have worldwide success? I don’t think so… Don’t say they are “Americans”. I’m pleased with everyone’s worldwide career when they really have the talent and not because of commercials or something like that. I mean, does really anybody care that Americans have worldwide success? I do not, I mean they are really “everywhere”: Europe, Asia… I’m used to it now… everyday in the music cannel… -_-~
I highly doubt a bad hair day will be the downfall of Se7en…if that was the case, Paris Hilton wouldn’t make millions on her own by being a bad habit everyday and the “slut joke” of today’s society. Se7en is a good kid and has talent….if he pairs up with the right people…like Pharell….he’ll be fine since R&B and hip-hop is known for…..flamboyant fashion.
wow…so many haters in here. but i personally think se7en looks hot in his new do and muscular arms.
you’re so bias and hypocritical did anyone ever tell you that?
Old news
I wouldn’t put a toe outside with a face like that,a complete NO-NO.It’d have been better if he didn’t dye his hair.
We already have enough bashing on soompi and Shenyuepop. Choose more original topics, Popseoul.
the new hairstyle doesn’t even suit him. yuck!!
“I love K-pop and koreans for being different from the western style.”
They’re influenced A LOT by Western styles.
Hairstyles in America, Korea, Europe, etc etc aren’t that vastly different. People have a tendency to forget that. There will always be someone with the insane dyed hair in EVERY COUNTRY.
Anyway, he is just experimenting with hair. It IS different and he does stand out if that’s what he’s aiming for. Besides it’s what the music that’s more important.
i think he looks more manly.
Why do you guys focus on the hair?
Look at his hot body! Has he been to the gym lately??
Man…he looks HOT!!!!!!!!!!!
he looks f*in hot.. all you guys gotta do is take you’re pinkie finger.. and kinda cover up the hair.. and just look at his face.. and body!!
he looks hilarious and ridiculous with that hair
i guess he just wants to look more appealing to western-ers…cuz i know a lot of ppl here don’t like the long-ish hair thing~
I read stupid comments,
and they come from the stupid people… DISGUST!
They put post of Asian … and do insult them, this is not a stupidity??
hello, is there anybody in his brains?
STUPID PEOPLE!
his head looks like an onion…
god.
that was stupid of him.
and even if he wanted to go toward the punk look…he shouldve done something else.
he looks like he’s trying too hard to fit in with american culture. definately a no-no.
>:[
ewwwwww.
he looks friggn nasty.
whoa sandra-chan calm your ass down, people are entitled to their opinions, lol dumbass
ShenYue describes it best- Chestnut hair.
T___T …what happen to the old Se7en?
i do not know what you guys are talking about, but he is SEXY!!!!! he looks like he got kind of think instead of buff ehh? Is he still in the states? and also, which state? hahahaha
ps…if he didn’t dye that blond then he’s look MORE sexy then he already does
seven, please dont drop an album in the states. just stay in korea!! what is up with you and rain wanting to come to the U.S. so badly?? just be happy with your already-big fame in korea and asia. if you’re too greedy for fame, you might end up losing all of it!! ~just an advice.
p.s., lose the faux-mohawk and win your own unique style, please.
Somehow that looks like a big poop on top of his head! Don’t get me wrong, I love the guy, but the hairstyle is just wrong.
he looks like another fob
Ugh, how can people use outdated words like fob? Usually people who use that term and white-wash have complex issues of their own.
I’m not digging his hair but…hey, who knows! maybe the Americans will like it.
It looks like an onion to me.
Se7en! Comeback to Korea! HAVING AN AMERICAN DEBUT WILL NEVER MEASURE YOUR SUCCESS AS A SINGER. You’re successful in Korea, Japan, China , Thailand and some Asian countries! That’s 100x better!
I just don’t understand why he is so fixated about breaking the US market. Se7en has a lot of fans in Asia but his focus has only been Japan and Korea. What about the rest of Asia??? Conquer Asia first…consolidate your fanbase!
Spending 5 - 6 months away is not the wisest thing to do in any circumstance!!!!
What will he have to crawl back to if he fails to crack the US market? Honestly, I see the US market as a futile dream.
Dream on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He looks great in the picture, but still don’t like the hair.
Sorry to disappoint everybody but rarely do you see Americans walking around with their hair like that, unless they are strictly punk or in a punk band, so that’s not true about being American. Se7en is young and just trying stuff out. I know one thing f**k the hair, he looks damn sexy in that pic, he’s also been working out.
Oh yeah by the way K-pop is HEAVILY influenced by western music, that’s the truth it’s no differant i’ts like American music with Korean singers, but I still love it.
Hm..he still looks hawt
he does look manly, but i likes his old hair better! anyways, hope he does it well in the west and bi too!
he looks hot!! What’s wrong with yall~ how does that look like ddong??? It’s just a style, chill out~
i dun like the hairstyle on him >.<
i prefer the one in his I Know (Nan Arayo)MV
I didn’t think I’ll see anyone as dumb as Rain where the USA dream is concerned. Let’s welcome Se7en.
The both of them can go on ignoring the fans in Korea and Asia. Let’s just see what they can crawl back to when they don’t succeed in the USA (come on, let’s be realistic about their chances!!). Their fans would have been eaten up by DBSG( esp in Asia) by then.
Oh Se7en ;_; Even though the hairstyle is getting kind of weird… at least he buffed up a lot this year. Oh well, what’s important is that he can still sing.
buttarain speaks the truth.
WTF!? I love Se7en, but that ‘do has G2G! He should dye his entire head blonde … then I think he’ll look even hotter than ever!
Wow Se7en has gotten buff. BTW HAPPY B-DAY 2 ME(LOL) 21yrs TODAY hehe Okay, now he looks really good in this pic, but I doubt he’ll debut with this hairstyle so I’m not worrying.
geekgirl: “He should dye his entire head blonde … then I think he’ll look even hotter than ever!”
NO WAY! All blonde? Ewww. He’ll definitely look like a joke. A hot joke, LMAO.
thank you Kelly and I totally agree with your comments as well.
@Aimee
“NO WAY! All blonde? Ewww. He’ll definitely look like a joke. A hot joke, LMAO.”
And he doesn’t look like a joke now? lol
geekgirl: “And he doesn’t look like a joke now? lol”
Well, of course I don’t like that hair in the pic. But IMO going completely blonde is even more unnecessary and ridiculous, because he looks great with dark hair. That’s all!
Gosh, I wish I was the girl in the middle! Being that close to Se7en–I don’t think I can handle it! Hahaha.
But yeah, the hair is a no-no. He’s still HOT though!
this haircut is just bad…
I don´t like it
too older…
what happen with cute stylish Se7en?
WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! WOAH!
Enough with all the bashing, it’s getting really redundant. To all of you who are complaining about his hair just STOP. It’s silly, pointless, and it’s not like he is turn around and go back to black just because a bunch of people on a gossip sites’ comment list said so. And trust me a sensible stylist (preferably someone who knows what they’re doing) will show him the way. Because, yes everyone knows it isn’t the greatest hairstyle in the world.
Now, to all of you ranting and raving saying: “Ewww! He’s trying to be American and make a career in America! SE7EN is going to fail! Fail! Fail! FAIL!
Hello?
Did it ever occur to you that if he pulls it off he is going to be one of the first foreign artists to break into the American music industry? SE7EN would become a global HIT. That why he and Rain are trying so hard! You should support them not condemn them!
Don’t you think that he would have to break away from what the Korean Entertainment Industry expects to appeal to a wider audience? Their standards slightly differ from the western ones.
And who said he was going to spend that much time away from Korea and other Asian countries? Right now it’s September. So it’s only been about a month. Are you guys forgetting the album comes out in November?
Take a breath.
Think about what you say before you say it again.
And learn not to be so biased.
Because I bet the ones who are saying it’s end-of-the-world that he’s trying to “fit in” with the U.S.A culture are most likely self-hating, born, and bred AMERICANS.
“Think about what you say before you say it again.
And learn not to be so biased.”
Okay. I’ll learn not to be so biased as soon as you do. We got a deal?
I wasn’t being biased. Actually, what I was trying to get across was a lot people so far had some really negative views. It was mostly about how he should stick specifically to the asian market. And I agree with other points that in his absence some of his competition might try to get some spotlight or that he might not make it because trying to get into this music industy is tough thing to do and sometimes you can’t help but think a little negatively. That’s all. I’m sorry if I came off as biased. But it was kinda troubling seeing so many people doubting him.
@Enough is Enough—-
“Because I bet the ones who are saying it’s end-of-the-world that he’s trying to “fit in” with the U.S.A culture are most likely self-hating, born, and bred AMERICANS.”
Although I do agree that people shouldn’t bash Se7en to the ground for trying to break into America..
That comment was kinda harsh don’t you think? Why must you put Americans down, huh? I am a Se7en fan and is also Asian-American. =(
And then you had to throw in the word “bias”…
@Enough is Enough
“And who said he was going to spend that much time away from Korea and other Asian countries? Right now it’s September. So it’s only been about a month. Are you guys forgetting the album comes out in November?”
Excuse me!!!…his last appearance in Korea was on 7th April. He flew to the US and Japan after that. Effectively he has been away from Korea for 4 months and will be away till at least November. Tell the koreans that it’s a short period of time!!!!!!
Guess you’re not too updated about his schedule.
It seems unrealistic that Se7en’s album is supposively coming out in November. Because usually the new artists like to put out a single or two about a couple of months before they bring out a whole album. (Kinda like testing the waters).
That’s one of the reasons I doubt him making it in the US (for this year at least). Because if the plan was for an album to be released in November is true, then it doesn’t really sound like a good idea. Maybe you meant he will ‘debut’ in November?
Well, I don’t know anything I guess… but we’ll just have to wait and see how it all turns out.
I hope he doesn’t debut with that hair though.
@Enough is Enough:
I agree with Aimee about the “self-hating, born, and bred AMERICANS” comment.
That was harsh and how could you make an assumption like that?
@ Bemused: He did come back to Korea for a few days after his Japanese tour because he missed it. But didn’t do any promotions or whatever. Apparently, Bemused is not updated on his schedule.
@Kelly
We all know that he went back to Korea for a few days and he did not do any promotions. We also know what he did during those few days.
Let’s see.. April - July = 3 months away.. ok we’ll factor in a couple of days of R & R.
Nah.. let’s be generous and give him a week!
August - Nov = 3 months away estimated.. must remember to put in those couple of days when he was in Korea.
If you want the dates of when he arrived and left Korea & Japan.. I’m sure we can help with that.
lol i saw this on Soompi a while ago too.
Yeah, it looks horrible. All i have to say is that if he debuts like that, he has better have some REALLY AWESOME songs in there.
So Se7en should forever stay in his own country to prove that he has Korean pride rather than taking the courage to expand his own horizon? You know, everything in life isn’t about being successful or not. I mean, to go as far as counting the days where he’s not in Korea… give me a break. I’m sure he’s mindful about his Korean fans and probably needs their support the most. Anyway, good for him for venturing out regardless if he’s going to succeed or not. And maybe a brown hair dye with a short fro-hawk might suit him better.
Whole-heartedly agree with Meru. He cares a lot about his Korean fans - reason why he released 2 Korean albums in 2006 before he goes off to America. Skull from Stony Skunk is having a good start here. Even most new artists reguardless of race in the States have difficulties succeeding. But it’s their dream- it takes a lot of courage and determination to do that. These kinds of chances may happen again if they never took a risk.
If people are upset that there are hardly any Asian-Americans representing in mainstream American music and still don’t support any other native Asian that tries to break through here, then WHO will step up for a change for Asian artists in the States? Of course there is a long way to go, but if people are so afraid for others for even -attempting- to debut here, then how are we going to make any progress for change?
Look at any part of our history. From technology to government, there have been several failures and errors - but if people didn’t keep trying, our society would not have developed much. Hell, we’d probably wouldn’t have the internet if it weren’t for trials and errors that Steve Jobs or Bill Gates had to go through.
i think the hair style look okay!!!!
if you guys think his hair is crazy,
you should see my sister.
her hair is like a mohawk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
she had the same color as se7en too.
i like my sister hair though.
its different
seven is too
Maybe it’s his manager’s fault ?? And Se7en had to agree with it ??
He will not being like this 4 ever
i dont like this hair cut, but soon he will change, damt it’s just a hair
it doenst make him less talent
he looks like a roasted chestnut?!
omgggggggg…
Who actually owns the trademark to SE7EN?
New Line Cinema release a Platium DVD with the title Se7en, for Brad Pitt’s movie. Did Choi Dong-Wook and/or YG copy this name/logo?
Is this similar to the RAIN infringement incident? Any opinions?
See http://www.newline.com/properties_seven.html
Did YG & Choi Dong-Wook take the logo/name SE7EN from NewLine Cinema’s 1995 motion picture starring Brad Pitt?
http://www.newline.com/properties_seven.html
Is this another Trademark infringement issue similar to RAIN?
Or is this old news?
Se7en didn’t get his name from the movie. Besides Se7en worked with David Fincher during Sprite commericals.
http://korean-bitez.blogspot.com/2007/02/se7en-met-with-fight-club-director.html
There are also other Se7en artists in the States too. Just not that well known..
@ Enough is Enough
i like what you say, it makes sense. and yes, there are self-hating americans here too. i even had a cousin that says that if we go to war she’d leave the country and move somewhere else so she wouldn’t have to deal with the sh!t happenening here.
and really, it’s just hair people, it’ll grow back, it’s not like he shaved his head BALD! i think that would leave a lot more fans devastated so you guys should actually be glad that he didn’t do that….and if he wants to “fit in” or whatever, good for him, it’s most likely his choice,and Meru has a point. instead of bashing him, his fans should be giving him all the support he needs for going up against something as huge as breaking into america.
also, yes it is good to be concerned(or obsessed, whichever for the long hair ;D) for his appearance but if he had gotten bad responses for his hairstyle in asia, then he could just use hair extensions until his hair grows back…so really i don’t know why you guys freak out so much. yes, i am the kind of girl who likes long hair, and his,well, it looks kinda funky but it’ll grow back! geez! haha.and se7en brazil is also right, having his hair cut doesn’t mean that his talent was cut away with it =D besides true fans would stay his fans even if he sucked right? so this is no time to bash on him!! show him your love!
looks like hes grown blonde pubes on his head…………………………………………………………..
wow love the new look the long hair thing was kinda tiering
Se7en, it’s already OCTOBER.
WHEN IS YOUR U.S. ALBUM GONNA DEBUT!!!!!!!
I NEED SOME Se7en NEWS!!!!!!!
Ummmm……………. I like the hair cut. But uh yeah the blond part does make it look like a bird took a special side trip to spread some love on his head. He should dye the blond part blue or something.
Oh..I didnt know he had his hair like this!! I’m a SE7EN fan and I LUVV him to death…but him and Rain need to stop trying soo hard.. that is not the style..they’d get laughed at for this! They both need to just practice ENGLISH and bring teir own styles to U.S..isnt this supposed to be right? C’mon they are not supposed to be American wannabes…they are supposed to bring their Korean styles with them..FINALLY PROVED MY POINT!hahaha..but I STILL LUV HIM
hahahaha piece of ddong on the head? LOL true true
and he’s pretty smug with it as well.
OK a few points:
1. Hair Horrible put it back the way it was.
2.I don’t know whether to blame him or his management but he is not gonna make it in the US for many reasons (1)getting into hip hop music is hard for anyone but even more so for anyone who is not black and not from the ghetto.he’s not gonna get a great deal of respect in the hip hop culture unless he does something amazing (2)his english song that leaked out SUCKED like hell my god what did they do to him. First, of all having a washed out rapper in his first album was the biggest mistake they could have made.(3)and finally he needs to stick with pop/r&b his voice, his look, and his attitude are not a good fit for rapping.
3.Se7en needs a new image…one that is his! I just feel like he has no personality with his US work and that is hurting him hard. He seems very generic and that is not gonna hold.
4.Asian artist are finally making a dent in the US music world he needs to work his ass off and get going before his window of opportunity is done. but he has got to hit the music world hard and heavy. the music i’ve heard is just gonna sink in the US.
ps. he does look hot though lol ^^
what made u say that both (Bi & Se7en) are like..trying so hard to jump in to the Western world? …did they say something about that in the past?…anyway se7en’s new “do”’s ok for me, it’s indeed a fee world after all
i meant “free world”. my mistake ^-^
it would be hotter without the blonde
NO YOU SUCK POPSEOUL WRITER!
SE7EN ROCKS!
FAUXHAWKS ARE HOT!
HE LOOKS HOT WITH IT!
nyeh nyeh nyeh. Hmph. ~
