Kang To's Magnificent Hair Poll
Jun. 29th, 2012 09:12 pmIt's 109 degrees here (that's 43 degrees Celsius, for those who don't use Farenheit), I think I have heat exhaustion so I have no energy for anything, drama-watching or posting included and ep 10 of Bridal Mask, as well as my ginormous post on this week's eps will have to wait until tomorrow. Apologies.
Still, no weather is too hot to discuss Kang To's magnificent hairstyles, which really should be given separate billing.
So, as to refresh:
Emo Fringe - Kang To has this hairdo when he's the angsty, angry servant to the Japanese. The hair reflects his intensity and conflict and also his solace in a great haircut.

Flashback Hair - The simple short haircut is great for simple but not-so-short Kang To before he got tangled with the Japanese.

Slicked-back hair - drama characters tend to mark monumental events by hair changes, and our Kang To is no different. After losing his family and deciding to become Bridal Mask, he commemorates the event by this snazzy hairdo. Plus, the purists can now relax about his hair and complain about his tight pants. Hmmm, let me contemplate those pants very very closely...

Put some wave in it - at this stage of the story, Kang To's feelings and roles are incredibly complex and so is this hairdo. The hairdresser must have spent quite a time on it, just to provide sexy sexy symbolism to the audience.

Gaksital hair - the hero of the people is too busy to use gel! Down with hair products, invention of the devil!

Date: 2012-06-30 02:34 am (UTC)I love:
Emo Fringe- makes angry and angsty Kang To so so hot. Who cares if it's asymmetrical, Kang To is not what you call 'balanced' , is he?
Flashback Hair - I wasn't paying much attention to this one. It didn't strike me when I was watching this scene but somehow in this photo, Kang To looks photoshopped. As if someone pasted his head on that massive upper body frame. But I know it is not which leads to my giddy pondering of how awesome Joowon's body will be if he just works out a little.
Slicked-back Hair - Kudos to Joowon for carrying this hairdo so fine. And who complained about the pants? Didn't they punish us enough that the Gaksital outfit is a loose bag? WIth ribbon that is too tightly knotted and flap that never flies open no matter how much or how high Gaksital leaps? The question shouldn't be WHEN do men wear tight pants, it should be WHO should wear tight pants?
Put some wave in it - Rarely, can a man look pretty and manly. Sorry LMH, Joowon wins "Best Perm" after this one.
Gaksital Hair- Did KS leave something behind for his little brother? This thing should have been buried six...no...ten feet underground, never to see the light of day ever again.

I normally hate perms but it looks awesome on him.
The gaksital wig (in contrast to his hair when he's brooding in gaksital lair) must be burned!

Date: 2012-06-30 04:04 am (UTC)I think the tight pants Kang To has to wear back is also a problem. But then, if Clark Kent can squeeze into his tights, never mind that there wasn't any more space for his underpants, I think it's not so impossible, huh? that's why we love reel life.

Date: 2012-07-04 03:00 am (UTC)Had a very tough day here on the coast of So. Calif., it is all of 76 degrees F. Yes, it's tough, but I will persevere. Reading your blog helps pass the time while dealing with the our summer 'swelter' so thank you.
