POPSEOUL! Halloween Costume Ideas 2008

Jackolantern_200810281

Yes, Halloween is right around the corner. And for all those procrastinators out there who haven’t thought of a Halloween costume yet, we are here to help.

Check out the tasty Halloween costumes that will make you the life of the party.

Aden004-small

Campus couple

Costume requirements: Easy

So you have a bf or gf and don’t know what to wear? Why not wear the same outfit from head to toe like Jo In-sung and Sung Yuri. If someone asks, tell them you are a “couple from Korea”. Simple.

Shinee_20081028

Idol group

Costume requirements: Medium

Have you always wanted to be an idol star with adoring fans who massage your butt? Well it’s not that difficult. All you have to do is to round up everyone you know (girls or boy). If you want to be this year’s hottest acts, SHINee or the Wondergirls, take note of the following costume guidelines:

SHINee
Two things: slim pants and bowl cuts. The pants must be pastel and must be tight enough squish your internal organs together. Also, can’t forget the bowl cut – a sign that you are “hip and happening.” And for the finishing touch, wear crazy fluorescent colored shoes. Oh, and you don’t have to be a guy…girls are ok too.

Wondergirls_costume)081029

Wondergirls
To be the Wondergirls, you must have 4 other friends who look the same (not difficult if you had the same nose job, eye folds, and shaved jaw). Next, dig out all the leopard print from the back of your closet and wear it any which way you want, paired with jewel colored stockings. If you want to stand out, remember to wear a diaper, like Sohee (in chic leopard print, of course!) Also, choose someone you don’t like to wear the uglier version of the outfit (every group has one). Voila, you now have the look from the “So Hot” album. As an added bonus, find a random gorilla to play JYP!

Crownjinyoung_20081028

Ant couple: Suh In-young and Crown J

Costume requirements: Easy

Going trick-or-treating as couple? Then you should try going as ”We Got Married!”’s favorite couple, Seo In-Young and Crown J!

Ladies, cut your hair into a bowlcut (if you have one already- bonus!) and put on the most ridiculously skanky outfit you can find in your closet. After that, all you have to do is hit, embarrass and boss around your boyfriend like you are his mother. Oh and whine in a nasally voice….that’s it!

Guys, dress as “gangsta” as possible by wear a baseball cap, repeatedly yelling out, “L.A.” but somehow mysteriously represent Atlanta, and screaming “A!” with your fingers in an upside-down ‘V’ every time your girlfriend screams at you.

Gwonjiyoung-081029

G-Dragon (Big Bang)

Costume requirements: Easy

To be like Mr. fashonista himself, G-dragon, the possibilities are endless. The easiest costume is just pretend you are a girl (check above). Wear dark eyeliner, get a few tattoos on your skinny forearms, wear t-shirts that say “I love sex” or wear all black with or without a fur cap.

Dbsk-200809-10

Jae-joong (Dong-bang-shin-ki)

Costume requirements: Easy

If you are fortunate enough to have a concave chest, then take advantage of it! It’s super duper easy to be a member of idol group, Dong-bang-shin-ki with 800,000 fans! just open your shirt to expose your belly button, throw on a few thin chains, place one hand in your pant pocket (to look cool) and voila! Get ready for the mobs of girls chasing you down and calling out “oppa!”

  8. 8 Dovey October 30, 2008 at 2:17 pm

    Looks like you guys are making fun of these celebs, more so than saying their attire is something people would want to impersonate. The only one I thought would make my list was the campus couple one though.

  9. 9 superhae October 30, 2008 at 2:20 pm

    wooow~G-dragon’s outfit make’s you go…..”WOOOOW WAAAT?”..

  11. 11 sunny October 30, 2008 at 2:30 pm

    do they have halloween in korea?
    i kno for a fact that if i dressed up as any of these… the only one that’d make a little bit of sense is the campus couple. but then ppl would be all “why are you dressed up as yourself?” no white person would understand the other celeb costumes lol

  12. 12 Rebel Without a Sauce October 30, 2008 at 2:44 pm

    I’ve seen gay halloween costumes before, but your ideas take the cake.

    …did I mention that it’s gay cake? :/

    Us Aussies never heard much about Halloween until several years ago when, as per typical, for reasons unknown to myself, some folk here decided to do a copy cat. Sad to say Aussies always do that. I mean copy cat all the weird things from the US of A. Maybe it was due to all the folks that came to live here from the States? Now we have crazy kids dressed up as bad people sticking super glue in our front door locks, letting down car tyres & even throwing eggs if they dont like the handouts. I thought doing a copy of the US of A’s Valentine’s Day was bad enough…when will we ever learn to do our own thing in Aussie land?

  14. 14 musume October 30, 2008 at 3:36 pm

    I’m dressing up as our fugly SNSD gals. ^^
    Then I’ll have a sign on my back saying ‘kick me, I’m a slut.’ hahahaha~
