2. Stray Kids' Hyunjin

This Stray Kids member is revered in the K-pop world for his long locks. While he debuted with a black mullet in 2018, it was in his comeback Go that he sent fans into a frenzy with his long silver hair.

The K-pop idol has experimented with colours like bubblegum pink, bright red, and classic-blonde as well. Fans had become so used to the idol's signature look that they were left shocked when he chopped off his hair in 2022.

Hyunjin then comforted fans in a livestream and stated that his hair grows back fast, making it easy for him to get his look back anytime he wants.

3. TXT's Beomgyu

Beomgyu's long black hair became the talk of the town when he first appeared with it in the LOVESONG era. Given that the song had rock elements in it, the long hair paired perfectly with his rock-star look.

The TXT member appeared with the same look in the Japanese music video for Magic, but looked even edgier in the music video for LO$ER=LOVER when he added some grey streaks to the black.

The iconic hair led to his shaggy-haired style, popularly called the 'wolf-cut', becoming a trend all over social media.

Having sported a short black bob cut, alongside a few instances of dyed hair, BTS' Jungkook went all out in 2021 with a blonde haired look at the Golden Disk Awards.

His Butter era saw the K-pop idol in a long purple haired look. From there, he went on to experiment with a bright blue shade on his long wavy tresses.

He then changed to his famous 'Mint choco' mullet, which was followed by a silver toned look.

His most iconic look was the long black hairstyle he pulled off with ease in BTS' winter package of 2021 that broke the internet and still has fans gushing over it.

As if that wasn't iconic enough, the male idol returned with an even more striking look in his music video Advice where he served some serious looks in a long hair-do with bright blue dip-dyed ends, paired with a cropped jacket over a cropped T-shirt and joggers.
