Judges must be blind - JYP wins 2007 Korea’s Best Dresser Award

20071210bestdresser_JYP

How can this be? The same man who favors tight underwear for prancing on stage. The same man who wore the same style as a woman. The same man who scarred some of us for life with his clear plastic pants.

This man, mega producer and comeback singer, JYP won the 24th Korea’s Best Dresser Award in music held at the Hyatt Hotel on December 10th, 2007.

The judges are either blind or they got paid off.

This is a joke.

    Some people are just easily manipulated by trends. It’s obvious the judges are fooled into thinking this guy is some kind of edgy trendsetter and they don’t want to appear to be out of the loop so they declare him the winner. Only a bunch of sheep who can’t think for themselves would vote this guy best dresser. Plus, everything about him screams “gay”, from head to toe, so it’s not just fashion he’s being “rewarded” for, it’s also the gaying down of masculinity.

    The guy is creepy. I can’t stand him.

    He’s kind of… distgusting.
    But then again this is the man who came out with J-Lim, Bi, and Wonder Girls so I can’t really hate.

  3. 3 Blahblahbon December 11, 2007 at 2:27 am

    His style isn’t that bad, it’s different and creative.
    You want him to dress like everyone else and get the award?
    What’s the point of giving the award to someone who looks the same as everyone else? This is how trends start anyway, if you don’t like how he dresses don’t wear the same clothes, what do you care what he wears?
    JYP is an awesome dancer, his music is insanely catchy and he made one of the biggest a-holes you all drool over.
    I don’t even consider myself a fan of his, but seriously, i think people just hate him ’cause he’s doing pretty damn well for a man in his 30s.
    Who wouldn’t be jealous? I wish i was as successful as him too.

    Good lord, is it April 1? Because this just cannot be! :lol:

    I guess he was the only nominee? ;)

    Well, I just saw a kdrama episode yesterday from a 2004 show, and one of the male leads wore a (very ugly) suit jacket that still had one of those labels prominently on the sleeve. (First time I’ve seen that insane faux pas in a Korean soap.) Here it is 2007 and things still haven’t improved? Oh, please! One could probably grab someone off the street who dresses (and definitely looks) better than this. In these pics, he’s dressed like a 1950s space ranger. All he needs is a ray gun.

    JPY, please go away… :|

  6. 6 Nami December 11, 2007 at 2:37 am

    lol jp4675! The first thought that came to my head when I saw the pic was, “EWW! What planet is he from?!” Seriously that guy needs to get a life!

  7. 7 nileey December 11, 2007 at 2:37 am

    it’s not even April Fools day! I wonder how much were they paid…

  8. 8 Geno December 11, 2007 at 2:41 am

    whats with him and those stupid boots… ahahahhahaha

  9. 9 East Sea December 11, 2007 at 2:50 am

    This is a joke!

  10. 10 EDCP December 11, 2007 at 2:58 am

    JYP is a great dresser. always wearing the next fashion trends. the goth/all black look is very popular right now in fashion. he basically dresses like a fashionable japanese artist. much better than what most male korean celebs wear, which is usually huge baggy jeans/slacks and tight girly tops.

  11. 11 May December 11, 2007 at 2:59 am

    that’s bloody awesome.
    “His style isn’t that bad, it’s different and creative.
    You want him to dress like everyone else and get the award?”

    I agree entirely. I’d be more pissed off if the winner looks average.

  12. 12 Omo December 11, 2007 at 3:08 am

    I admire JYP’s shamelessness. Wish I was as confident.

  13. 13 haha December 11, 2007 at 3:09 am

    I think that he dressed OK. What is not OK is his face.

  14. 14 marmar December 11, 2007 at 3:17 am

    Yes his style is different and creative.
    but some styles are just not meant to be.
    Gosh the judges MUST be blind or they could just be joking, seriously JYP’s style is something that I don’t call fashion.

  15. 15 BigMeat December 11, 2007 at 3:31 am

    Someone should tell JYP to pull that sock out from his pants. We all know you don’t carry that much meat between your legs. Me thinks you have been hanging around the bros to much in NY and are jealous how small you are in that department. I hope that chick in the last picture farted in his face. He’s all up in that sniffing away.

  16. 16 Raye December 11, 2007 at 3:33 am

    this is a joke. WTF??!

  17. 17 o-cha December 11, 2007 at 3:38 am

    Bwahahahahahahahaha…. are they serious?!!
    Speechless…

  18. 18 leelee December 11, 2007 at 4:11 am

    I agree with Omo, I like his confidence. XD Lord knows I wouldn’t go out in public in half of the stuff he wears, but I’m happy he… doesn’t… care. … ^^;; Good for him.
    But no, omg, no. Not a fan of his style at all. He does amuse me, though, so I can still give him props… but omg JYP why?

  19. 19 hiyonoxd December 11, 2007 at 4:28 am

    i feel so bad for that dancer whose ass he has to always eye every time he does the dance.
    cover his face and its not that bad.

  20. 20 Yuki December 11, 2007 at 4:42 am

    WTF?!
    You might as well call Alien Andre the king of fashion then @___@

  21. 21 for real December 11, 2007 at 5:08 am

    I guess he just stands out from other normally dressed men so he got picked.

    He’s so friggin ugly.

  22. 22 Jane. December 11, 2007 at 5:20 am

    I don’t appreciate him as a singer, but quite a lot more as a producer.

  23. 23 Asia December 11, 2007 at 5:33 am

    Methinks the award standards are vague enough for the judges to get away with giving it to him. It’s not “Best Style” or “Most Class” it’s just Best Dresser.

  24. 24 Annie December 11, 2007 at 5:40 am

    They might as well have given the award to Andre kim! LOL

  25. 25 kprocks89 December 11, 2007 at 5:40 am

    he may be a great producer, but he looks like a bulldog. —;; eww…

  26. 26 Katulong December 11, 2007 at 5:42 am

    OKay, am I the only one freaking out about his bulge int he picture?
    (hmm, must’ve saw a cute boy taking his picture).

  27. 27 xxx December 11, 2007 at 5:44 am

    being able to go along with the trend doesn’t always make you the ‘best dresser’. you must AT LEAST make the clothes you wear fit you well. -_-” though his clothing might look really stylish, only if he wasn’t the one wearing it. XD

  28. 28 BKJSuh December 11, 2007 at 5:53 am

    Well JYP been winning best dresser award for quiet a long time during his younger days.

  29. 29 naj December 11, 2007 at 6:06 am

    hideous. and it’s not helping that
    he still freaks me out. O:

  30. 30 valski December 11, 2007 at 6:20 am

    his music works.
    he kinda looks stuck up in that main pic with his face like that.
    he’s got some major boner status going on though.

  31. 31 cattey December 11, 2007 at 6:42 am

    i just have one question and i’ve been meaning to ask you guys this..i’m just wondering: is JYP gay? i don’t mean to offend anybody. it’s really just out of curiosity..please rep..
    ^__^

  32. 32 Jackie December 11, 2007 at 6:46 am

    I do not find JYP attractive at all. In fact, he must be one of the most hideous Corean men that I have ever seen. This photo makes his face look like a squashed pug’s face. I have also seen him in some of his more scandalous clothing, and he disgusts me! Absolutely NO SEX APPEAL! I think he should just stick to the producing stuff and stay off the stage.

    On the other hand, I do believe he is admirable for having so much self esteem that he’s not afraid to flaunt his (ugly) face like he does.

  33. 33 yetaz December 11, 2007 at 6:47 am

    he does have a creepy disposition. however, when JYP auditioned for Lee Soo Man, LSM said NO but offered to buy JYP’s self-produced song. as well, that annoying song “tell me” has been on the top of the charts for ages. so therefore, he should stay as a songwriter/producer instead of crossing over again as a singer.

  34. 34 Yin December 11, 2007 at 6:52 am

    ahahahaha. JYP! BEST DRESSER! AHAHAHAHAHA *chokes*

  35. 35 nycapple December 11, 2007 at 6:54 am

    what the hell constitutes someone’s fashion sense as “screaming gay”. Unless he’s wearing a cape made out of a gay pride flag? It’s getting old and stupid to try to insult a straight man by calling him gay. Come up with something more creative please.

  36. 36 Amy December 11, 2007 at 6:59 am

    Actually, I think that the outfit that he’s wearing in the banner picture is pretty fly. I mean, I like it when guys so a little skin…
    Okay, for real, if it was Rain wearing the same outfits, I’m sure that the ladies wouldn’t be complaining. But it’s JYP, so…ummm.

  37. 37 nycapple December 11, 2007 at 7:16 am

    cattey:

    well he’s never come out of the closet and he’s married, not that that proves anything. I guess only jyp can answer that question for you.

  38. 38 Dumpling December 11, 2007 at 7:36 am

    “is JYP gay?”

    Is the grass green?

    He’s one step away from all-out FLAMING gay. He’s completely hideous. Not because he’s gay, I mean. Not all gay men look creepy and disgusting. But this one sure corners the market!

  39. 39 Dumpling December 11, 2007 at 7:37 am

    BTW, I don’t believe he’s married.

  40. 40 leash December 11, 2007 at 7:46 am

    I don’t believe it either Dumpling.

  41. 41 cheryl December 11, 2007 at 7:59 am

    omg he looks like a flamingo in one of poses in the smaller images. haha!

  42. 42 May December 11, 2007 at 8:01 am

    “Is the grass green?”

    no. sometimes they’re brown and yellow.

  43. 43 ash December 11, 2007 at 8:30 am

    If you cover his face, you would think it’s a woman’s body. He must be gay.

  44. 44 Irina December 11, 2007 at 9:21 am

    this is really a joke

  45. 45 angry annie December 11, 2007 at 9:29 am

    Asian version of old Jack Nicholson… his face looks like all squeeze in the middle. I never like him. and don’t hate him too, but just dislike. :X

  46. 46 toocutedoggy December 11, 2007 at 9:32 am

    0.o

  47. 47 cattey December 11, 2007 at 9:48 am

    i just wanted some clarifications..i didn’t state that he was gay..it was a question..so at least i kinda have an idea now..
    and i’m kinda new to Korean celebrities..so, there’s a lot more that i don’t know about most of the members of the Korean show biz community.. :|
    btw, thanks to those who answered the ?.. :)

  48. 48 Shin December 11, 2007 at 9:54 am

    Did JYP Entertainment sponsor this award ceremony? o______O

  49. 49 Dumpling December 11, 2007 at 10:09 am

    Why on earth would he be married?? Gay men don’t like poontang!!

    LOL!

  50. 50 jenn December 11, 2007 at 10:18 am

    he really creeps me out.

  51. 51 Katulong December 11, 2007 at 10:58 am

    Dumpling - He is married. But supposedly, him and his wife are in an open relationship. Probably becauase he doesnt want the media to know he’s gay, so he married, but at the office, he has his bot toys. come now, Rain?

  52. 52 Orchid December 11, 2007 at 11:07 am

    Katulong - what does “open relationship” mean? Goodness, then why did he get married in the first place? Yes, i heard JYP is married too. Are there any pictures of his wife?

  53. 53 Dumpling December 11, 2007 at 11:29 am

    “Probably becauase he doesnt want the media to know he’s gay”

    LOL, he’s not doing a good job of hiding it. I sincerely don’t think ANYONE thinks JYP is straight.

  54. 54 Aya December 11, 2007 at 11:44 am

    No doubt he is gay. I like his vest and shirt. But this is the only time Ive ever remotely liked anything he’s worn. And his boots are revolting.
    In reality, he can’t be gay… because of all the pedophileness that he radiates around young girls… Havent you seen the video footage???
    There was one posted where he dance with some girl, she looked uncomfortable like when someone harrasses you in the green room but you have to dance with them anyways, and every move he makes you feel uncomfortable because he finds it sexual….
    Ive seen this from him..
    So he cant be all out gay.
    Wonder what his ‘wife’ looks like.
    I actually know someone who married a gay guy for tax write offs and cheap education.

  55. 55 calla December 11, 2007 at 12:15 pm

    Married or not, gay or not, he shouldn’t be declared Best Dressed!

    First they voted someone entirely out of whack “Best Plastic” (am I right on this title?), then this one? Is Korea trying to ruin its SO-CALLED reputation of “Purest and Best Looking People in Asia” (whatever this means)???? Horifying sight! It’s like watching Jack Nicholson wearing his scariest face and scaring the hell of his wife on top of the stairs in the movie ‘The Shining’ and saying “Wendy…. Wendy….” Horifying sight, this JYP, and he doesn’t even have to open his mouth.

  56. 56 kawaiimegami December 11, 2007 at 12:54 pm

    HoLy cow!! O.o

  57. 57 cattey December 11, 2007 at 1:00 pm

    calla–LOL!!!
    at first, i tried to picture the scene and then i just saw JYP and in the same outfit as in this article..and i just bursted out laughing..
    Katulong–isn’t the whole point of getting married to become exclusive for each other? why the heck would they have an “open relationship”?? i think it’s just for show and a cover up for, you know, stuff..hmmm

  58. 58 anecia December 11, 2007 at 1:33 pm

    If you put a paper bag over his head,change his tight pants to something else…WALA!!You get 2007 Korea’s Best Dresser

  59. 59 junsufan December 11, 2007 at 1:45 pm

    what the..how can he be Korea’s Best Dresser??!!

  60. 60 whatever~ December 11, 2007 at 2:19 pm

    ok, i pretty much agree that he is not Korea’s best dresser, but there’s way too much hate in hereXD lol actually i underestimated JYP, thought he shouldn’t come out as a singer again and stick to what he does best, now i’m not so sure tho, I couldn’t get his song “Kiss” out of my head after I saw him in Yoon Do Hyun’s Loveletter and the dance is pure awesomeness, I believe it was in his performance in a korean movies award thing that i finally got why Rain and Wonder Girls are what they are (popularity wise) the guy is a true entertainer, I don’t remember when i have enjoyed so much a performance as that one.

  61. 61 taebin December 11, 2007 at 2:51 pm

    Dumpling , “I don’t believe he’s married”
    Elton John was also married with a woman .

    “Best Dresser” - If you like plasticfantastic and old,ridiculous looking men the award is ok!!

  62. 62 uhuh December 11, 2007 at 3:57 pm

    gosh u scared a hell out of me by saying that lol

  63. 63 blinkable December 11, 2007 at 4:30 pm

  64. 64 kitty December 11, 2007 at 5:55 pm

    HIM..best dresser
    this IS a joke

  65. 65 ym December 11, 2007 at 9:14 pm

    EEEEEEEEEWWWWW
    he’s so disgusting!
    the judges are so blind!

  66. 66 Aya December 11, 2007 at 10:15 pm

    Every time I scroll down and read this I laugh.
    Its too laughable. Cant take it seriously.

  67. 67 ~HSG~ December 11, 2007 at 11:29 pm

    lol Well at least he wore one of his better looking outfits there.

  68. 68 May December 12, 2007 at 5:18 am

    “he kinda looks stuck up in that main pic with his face like that.”

    true but he got all rights to be bragging. Go do your research. and no, it ain’t just Rain & Wonder Girls.

  69. 69 KanginsFutureGF December 12, 2007 at 9:56 am

    my math teacher knows JYP personally. long time ago when JYP did a demo tape of one of his famous songs, JYP gave my teacher the demo tape.

  70. 70 Creamcreamstar December 12, 2007 at 10:44 am

    um…maybe he’s fashionable or whatever, but you gotta admit JYP is butt ugly. just saying D:
    (though not half as creepy as andre kim)

  71. 71 peepoo December 12, 2007 at 1:34 pm

    “JYP is a great dresser. always wearing the next fashion trends.”

    i didn’t know mc hammer pants were in again.

  72. 72 confused December 12, 2007 at 1:46 pm

    he looks like a giant rooster

  73. 73 Raihana December 12, 2007 at 2:25 pm

    what a pathetic looking dude…JYP a best-dressed man?..what a sick joke!

  74. 74 Ann*e December 12, 2007 at 4:17 pm

    puahahahahahaha!
    this has got to be a joke.
    -________-

  75. 75 jicks December 12, 2007 at 4:34 pm

    Dumpling’s on the ball in the first post. Though fashion sense does vary tremendously across the world. I often see/read/hear what various Asian countries deem as fashionable & just shudder in disbelief.

    I must say though I’m not advocating he is gay. He could be, could be not; but I do agree he does have this discomfortingly creepy vibe about him.

    Sometimes I actually fear for Bi lol

  76. 76 Saebin December 12, 2007 at 9:57 pm

    ….riggggged….
    rigged!….. o_o

    @jicks: “Sometimes I actually fear for Bi lol”

    lol!!!

  77. 77 Geli December 15, 2007 at 8:15 pm

    ya, that’s right… L0ok at his dress n0t his face… maybe if rain d0es wear that dress it will be g0od looking…
