Jang Geun-seok, the outdoor háikər

girlfriday: Oh, Jang Geun-seok. Sigh.
javabeans: Wait, first, can we talk about this weird-ass campaign? It’s for a clothing brand called… wait for it… Codes Combine Háikər. As in, one who hikes. I mean, haikes.
girlfriday: As in, writes haikus?
javabeans: Yes. While glaring like Rocky.
girlfriday: Don’t you mean Million Dollar Baby?
javabeans: Apparently the two concepts for the photo are “outdoor haiker” and “barren haiker.”
girlfriday: As in, can’t have children? While hiking? That’s horrible.
javabeans: Which is ironic since Kim Ok-bin(‘s elbow) looks strangely pregnant in that last photo.
girlfriday: I like how his eyeshadow matches his gypsy do-rag.
javabeans: Maybe it’s camouflage for his outdoor barren hiking.
girlfriday: To trick the birds and whatnot?
javabeans: Yeah, maybe peacocks.
girlfriday: It’s fitting for Jang Geun-seok, since male peacocks are the pretty ones.
javabeans: And they STRUT!
girlfriday: Um…is he wearing patterned tights?
javabeans: Why are you surprised by this? He still has his Mary hair. Clearly he’s still reveling in his feminine glory.
girlfriday: He IS strangely attached to that hairdo. Thank god he’s pretty enough to pull it off.
javabeans: Oh, Jang Geun-seok. Sigh.

He does have a great voice.
I wasn't meaning pretty as a questioning of his hotness or anything, just that every time I look at him, I'm amazed by it. They really could do anything with him and he'd make it look good.
He's so distractingly attractive. Although, I feel like I may be bordering on too old to think so. Thank goodness for the Stella-got-her-groove-back trend in k-dramas these days.

I agree, it looks good on him. Hell, burlap would look good on him, and as for the You're My Pet plans, he's supposed to have long curly hair for the character. I personally think his long soft waves look a million times sexier than MatsuJun's awful perm did in the JDrama.

In case you have forgotten the awfulness of said perm, here's a picture that really captures the awkwardness:
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Eg60mN2dzPM/TSnwCFSCFfI/AAAAAAAAAZs/N_R2T6HCkfM/s1600/27921052_kimi_wa_petto_8.jpg
The funny thing about this perm, is that it somehow looks way better in the promo shots than in the actual drama. As though they somehow shot the whole thing and then hired new hair and makeup people for the ad campaign.

0

@ Jane - I still cringing at MatsuJun's hair. Great...now I'm thinking about his Hana Yori Dango hair, too.

I like his "Mary" hair, more like I'm jealous of it. I hope the stylists for You're my Pet don't do anything crazy with his hair.

It's true. He's a perfect example of androgyny: looks that are waaaaaaaay purrrtier than girls' but with a man voice so deep that makes some men twice his age sound like pubescent boys.

I actually had to stare at the last photo for a full second, unable to tell whether it was the girl with him, or if it was JGS and just taken at a strange angle.

It's kinda like that old parlour trick: viewed one way, it's a young woman, viewed another way, it's an old lady. Except in this case, it's: viewed one way, it's a really pretty girl, viewed the other way, it's still a really pretty girl, except it's not.

Woot! Don't forget the glorious era of 80's Hair Bands. Androgeny rocks. Bishies are awesome sauce! Long legs, long hair, check and check! I'm good. The character that Sukkie portrayed in "Mary" actually has hair more along the lines of Sebastian Bach and looks more like a girl than his love interest in ways. I wonder if people would be able to take it if he went with that. I sighed too when I saw this. Sighed with loooove! While I'm glad to get news about Sukkie it really pains me to see so many rag on such a beautiful and talented actor.

JGS's hair initially was for his Kimi wa Petto project, still at halt, and swept his Mary Me Mary project there after. So, I'm sure he needs to keep this style until he finishes the project at halt.

JGS does look more like a peacock in color. Look, he's about to show us his spirit fingers. Oh wait, I think I need my pair of 3D glasses on 'cos his middle finger looks fatter than his other fingers for some reason. Bahahahah! Uh oh, someone has a lot of spirit stored in a finger. [Taking off my 3D glasses now.]

I don't mean to be discourteous, but a "male peacock" is redundant, because there is no such thing as a female peacock. A peacock ( cock... ) is a male peafowl, and a peahen is a female peafowl. Honestly, please don't hate me, I am not a native English speaker, so whenever, I make a mistake in my grammar, spelling, etc. I always appreciate it whenever someone corrects me. PEACE.

I showed this article to my husband, thinking that we could finally bond over my Korean obsession. (My husband is an outdoorsy, bug-obsessed manly man.) He said that while he did not recommend the eyeshadow as he thinks it would probably get someone mauled by a bear (he is convinced that a bear won't attack a person until they are at their most embarrassing moment, i.e., in an outhouse constipated, not bein' able to pull up your pants, havin' sex with someone else's wife) the tights actually have a practical application if they are made out of a polymer to increase drying time should a person get wet while hiking. He said that he was looking into getting himself a pair, which prompted me to ask if he was sure he didn't want me to buy him some eyeshadow... he asked if I really just wanted him to die so I could go marry T.O.P in real life instead of just claiming it all the time.
