Pop or flop: Jang Geun Suk’s radioactive coat

Jang-geun-seok_20080337_popseoul

My poor eyes. Jang Geun Suk could not have worn a brighter coat to the premier of his new movie Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do.

Pop or Flop: Jang Geun Suk’s radioactive coat

1) Pop - He’s fashion forward. Men should wear more color
2) Flop - I’ve suffered acute corneal damage from this
3) Can’t decide
4) Don’t care

Filmed 3 years ago, the musically titled movie centers around a love triangle between Jang Geun Suk, Jung Wee Chul, and Cha Ye Ryeon. Jang Geun Suk plays the lead singer of a band, and Jung Wee Chul plays the band’s bassist. Expect for a lot of sappy drama paired with a killer music soundtrack starting on April 3rd.

    um, wow. bright.

    I’m at a loss for words.

  2. 2 leah March 29, 2008 at 3:32 am

    Whoa, that’s so bright! It’s a nice color but…yeah…not for him, though. Perhaps a darker color would’ve been more suitable.

  3. 3 johnnydorama March 29, 2008 at 3:35 am

    He looks kind of like a younger Jo In Sung there…

  4. 4 winky March 29, 2008 at 3:36 am

    the color’s cute but doesn’t suit him.

  5. 5 Jane. March 29, 2008 at 3:36 am

    uhhh. def. flop. that movie looks pretty good though. i wanna see it.

  6. 6 inquinn March 29, 2008 at 3:40 am

    gosh, what a bad outfit can do to you. jang geun seuk is leaving me with horror thoughts these days, first with him in a drag costume in an award show end of last year and now, this.

    am glad the movie was filmed when he was still cute. trailer looks good, can’t wait!

  7. 7 marmar March 29, 2008 at 3:42 am

    DAT’s A BIG FLOP!!
    Dayum that’s just too bright & makes him girly..
    That’s a fashion no no..

  8. 8 Leigh March 29, 2008 at 3:44 am

    Too much make-up as well.

  9. 9 me March 29, 2008 at 3:49 am

    you know as much as im obsessed with jang geun suk.. and watches everything with him in it.. but i think this pic is scary.. the make-up and outfit goshh..
    it isnt girly but oo much make up made him look like a clown..

  10. 10 dodo March 29, 2008 at 3:52 am

    This man is doing this great coat an injustice! Such a coat is meant for WOMEN to wear only! not men! and yeah. the dude needs to cut back on the makeup.

  11. 11 ^_~V March 29, 2008 at 4:00 am

    dang the trailer looks good..cant wait to see it…^^
    the color is nice…
    but it makes him look pale…

  12. 12 Christine March 29, 2008 at 4:20 am

    i don’t think he’s attractive at all. head is too small and way too effeminate for my taste. -_-

  13. 13 for real March 29, 2008 at 4:27 am

    well it’s better than a big head right? haha

    He’s adorable. I liked him with HaJiWon in hwangjini drama.
    well I can’t wait to see this new movie.

  14. 14 dandelionss March 29, 2008 at 4:30 am

    horrible coat but omg cannot wait for the movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. 15 y March 29, 2008 at 4:31 am

    Maybe the color could be a bit more bearable if it was broken up in segments instead of being one big block of blue. Or if the cut of the jacket wasn’t so girly. yeesh

  16. 16 soohyun3194 March 29, 2008 at 4:44 am

    omg the drama looks sooo good!!
    i want to see it!!
    POPSEOUL!! PLEASE KEEP US POSTED ON THE DRAMA!!

  18. 18 wowza. March 29, 2008 at 4:45 am

    daaaaaaaaaaaaamn.

  19. 19 nerdyazn07 March 29, 2008 at 4:47 am

    wat the hell is up with that effin’ coat….OMG….i have no idea why a guy would wear such a weird jacket or “rain coat”…..LMFAO >_<

  20. 20 £ğöçεή†яỉǺ≈ ŁąñЕTAEJUS March 29, 2008 at 4:54 am

    It certainly is bright, but tsk, tsk.. what.a.FLOP!!!

    Now this is the worst fashion crime EVER!!

    Needs to be reported. Pronto.

  21. 21 soju March 29, 2008 at 5:05 am

    strange fashion statement here. definitely a flop!

  22. 22 nx512 March 29, 2008 at 5:32 am

    ah def not digging the coat but sooooo looking forward to the movie! loved the book so hope the movie does it justice

  23. 23 yeli March 29, 2008 at 5:45 am

    My eyes! ><
    and he totally looks like a young Jo In Sung when he smiles like that..

    anyways, i guess he chose to wear that so that he could stand out…someone seems s bit hungry for attention lol…or at least that is the ONLY reasonable explanation i could think of for why he would choose to wear such a hideous thing ..

  24. 24 김태신KoreanTommy March 29, 2008 at 5:50 am

    waaaay to bright

  25. 25 ha March 29, 2008 at 6:07 am

    i like bright colors so i’m biased. the design is another story. with the belt fastened, it looks like those space-age suits for comic superheros — or ambiguously gay cartoon character.

  26. 26 Lulia March 29, 2008 at 6:15 am

    TOTAL FLOP BUT HES STILL HOT!

    I WANNA SEE THE MOVIE IT LOOKS AWESOME !D

  27. 27 Sarah March 29, 2008 at 6:26 am

    Who the is Jung Wee Chul? Get it right, POPSEOUL!. His name is Jung EUI Chul.

    위철=/= 의철.

  28. 28 keke March 29, 2008 at 6:29 am

    ah who cares
    I’ve been waiting for this movie for soooooooo

  29. 29 the one. March 29, 2008 at 6:39 am

    the movie looks really good.!!
    i like him when he was younger.. and…less…of a smoker?.
    haha..
    um.. i kinda like it.. i mean.. he looks hot.

  30. 30 thecoolest March 29, 2008 at 6:41 am

    He should just dress like Prince Chang Hui.

  31. 31 ♡-♡ I WANNA F.U.C.K. H.I.M March 29, 2008 at 6:42 am

  35. 35 BKJSuh March 29, 2008 at 7:02 am

    Poor guy, I bet that they forced to wear that lab coat.

  36. 36 maltesers March 29, 2008 at 7:29 am

  40. 40 smile March 29, 2008 at 8:21 am

  43. 43 Taejus March 29, 2008 at 8:48 am

    Movie seems rly interesting, suddenly, I want to watch!

    :)

  44. 44 Louise March 29, 2008 at 8:52 am

    I can’t wait for the movie! To bad I always fall for the “other guy”, I should have learned by now that the girl always pick the lead actor…

    (I hate the coat on him, it looks horrible.)

  45. 45 exu March 29, 2008 at 9:11 am

    what else would one expect out of a guy who wears eyeliner anyway … seriously tacky & freaky~

  46. 46 Sarah March 29, 2008 at 9:21 am

    he looks like he’s wearing makeup… like lip gloss and foundation

  47. 47 noax3 March 29, 2008 at 9:24 am

    This color is not his color

  48. 48 fi0naLee March 29, 2008 at 9:34 am

    for a moment there, i thought he was jo in sung. oh well, i’m more interested in the movie. weeeeeeeeeeee! this is guiyeoni’s Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do! i love that fic! =D

  49. 49 bewise March 29, 2008 at 10:01 am

    how old is this guy? is he still in high school?

  50. 50 thecoolest March 29, 2008 at 10:26 am

    he’s 21/22 born in 1987

  51. 51 steviewonder06 March 29, 2008 at 10:29 am

    aigoooo~
    my eyes…-____-

  52. 52 Kristen March 29, 2008 at 10:31 am

    I’m more frightened by that giant bit of forehead. Ouch. Bangs exist for a reason, boy.

  53. 53 saewon March 29, 2008 at 10:52 am

    the color is good, but that coat would look better on a woman. no offense to him though.

  54. 54 ArcticShatter March 29, 2008 at 11:08 am

    Aww…He’s such a cutie. I really like that jacket, haha. It contrasts with his dark hair.
    I love the trailer, I wanna see that movie now :D

  55. 55 vk March 29, 2008 at 11:45 am

    i want to watch this!!! another movie made from guiyeoni’s novel!!! >____< loved the novel too <3

    and yes.. a flop D:

  56. 56 Lily March 29, 2008 at 11:48 am

    he’s way too pale…he can definitely use a tan. he looks like a young Andre Kim….

  57. 57 jajaja March 29, 2008 at 11:53 am

    i love him in Hong Gil Dong but the coat is too bright and girlish

  58. 58 fly me to the moon March 29, 2008 at 12:19 pm

    haha his forehead is huge, and he’s not cute in that photo
    hes cuter in the trailer..
    and is it just me or do the two guys look the same.

    movie looks good though, i wanna watch it

  59. 59 JungEun March 29, 2008 at 12:19 pm

    He um…looks like a girl from neck down

  60. 60 p March 29, 2008 at 12:24 pm

    i love him but this is seriously a fashion suicide. dont know what his stylist was thinking.

  61. 61 han March 29, 2008 at 12:28 pm

    my eyesssssssss

  62. 62 ehoh March 29, 2008 at 12:42 pm

    he’s saluting in a bright turquoise coat…

    okaaayyy…is a part of a rainbow colored army or something? and i really would like to know who the hell is he saluting in that flower gettup?

    and what’s with the cow-lick hair? makes his forehead bigger than it already is.

    so NOT HOT! do-re-him-a-new-stylist!

  63. 63 Cassidy March 29, 2008 at 1:23 pm

    Why not?

    If Ahn So-Hee can be a yellow canary at her premier, I don’t see what’s wrong with his coat!

  64. 64 Moi March 29, 2008 at 1:31 pm

    freaking F-L-O-P!

  65. 65 Ang March 29, 2008 at 1:38 pm

    Maybe he want MORE ATTEEEEENTIONNNN god!!

  66. 66 bb March 29, 2008 at 1:43 pm

    oh. my. god.

  67. 67 Jill March 29, 2008 at 2:13 pm

    Weird fashion statement indeed..Fire his stylist!.

  68. 68 o.O March 29, 2008 at 4:17 pm

    He’s so cute. Love his acting :-D

  69. 69 eduardo emmanuel March 29, 2008 at 6:24 pm

    macam lawa je.

    orang filipino lagi lawa.

    bodoh korea.

  70. 70 lazybum March 29, 2008 at 9:30 pm

    i was not actually aware that clothing came in that colour… you learn something new everyday. =)

  71. 71 @eduardo emmanuel March 30, 2008 at 12:14 am

    learn some English, pal.

  72. 72 secretivesoul March 30, 2008 at 1:24 am

    It looks very nice from the belt part of the coat up…I think the shape of the coat + the color sort of destroy the entire image. Until I saw the bottom, I was like “Oooh, pretty.”

    If there were more of the white undershirt visible, it might be passable.

  73. 73 DotDotDot March 30, 2008 at 2:59 am

    I don’t even think that color looks all that great on women either…heheh. It’s meant for a little girl. The coat is great, just the color makes it look cheap or dated. If it were a different tone..perhaps, but this color is crud.

  74. 74 Lorielle March 30, 2008 at 3:48 am

    er, definitely a flop. also–and i’m sorry to say this–but what’s with his gay pose? seriously.

  75. 75 Gaby March 30, 2008 at 5:09 am

    The color kills it. Still love him though.

  76. 76 T_T March 30, 2008 at 7:28 am

    helmet head.

  77. 77 asianromance March 30, 2008 at 10:32 am

    unless someone hands him a specific outfit (like an outfit he’s wearing in a drama), my impression of JGS’s fashion style has always been leaning towards “looks like he pulled something together in the middle of a blackout” so i’m not surprised by the bright blue coat. Though his fashion sense is off, I still love the guy and i look forward to the new movie. abt time it came out! doremifasolatido is one of my fave guiyeoni stories and the heroine of it is so kick-ass!

  78. 78 panshel March 30, 2008 at 10:47 am

    I cannot wait to watch the movie. It is going to be *so* good.

  79. 79 look at them forehead!!!!!! March 30, 2008 at 11:28 am

    his forehead is more … whoaa…
    then comes his bright a$$ coat.

  80. 80 rockmyboat. March 30, 2008 at 11:38 am

    ahahah thats a terrible outfit

  81. 81 Yin March 30, 2008 at 12:18 pm

    my EEYYYYYES, MY EYESS.

  82. 82 eduardo emmanuel March 30, 2008 at 12:50 pm

    to @eduardo emmanuel (the one who posted a reply to me)

    well, even if i don’t post in english, it doesn’t mean that i can’t speak english, right?

    for your information, i’m half american/ half asian (filipino and malay) and that makes me more than qualified to speak good english.

    i didn’t know that a compliment in another language could spark up some insensitive comments.

    peace.

  83. 83 Dovey March 30, 2008 at 3:32 pm

    I think the color looks nice, though a bit too bright.

  84. 84 romele March 30, 2008 at 7:11 pm

    i dont hate the clothes but look at his foundation, too much

  85. 85 mi*in March 30, 2008 at 9:16 pm

    my ‘Kim Eun-Ho’…. a futuristic one!! >>_<<

  86. 86 Chihiro March 31, 2008 at 12:54 pm

    yuck! looks wayyy to feminine

  87. 87 romar March 31, 2008 at 4:04 pm

    aaaahhhhhhhh! my poor eyes! such bright color. well maybe his showing his happiness by choosing this bright coat… at least its not orange… luv the guy but i hate the coat.

  88. 88 R. Kelly March 31, 2008 at 6:14 pm

    He looks like some gay Inspector Gadget.

  89. 89 Riley April 14, 2008 at 3:16 am

    I give him props for at least having some fashion balls.

    Wow.

    That’s a bright coat, even for a perky woman.

  90. 90 mandy June 13, 2008 at 11:21 am

    all i know is that he is FREAkING HOT in that movie.

    ^.^

    i love him.

  91. 91 sassychicks July 27, 2008 at 12:39 pm

    although I like him in Hong Gil Dong…
    In this movie..he’s a big No No….

  92. 92 Chinita_23 October 11, 2008 at 3:12 am

    at the first time i saw this guy he really look the same as jo in sung but of course the acting is different… I really like his character in Beethoven Virus… Even his younger to me by 2 years I learn to like him hehehe… Aja Geun Suk Fighting! hehehe
