5 K-drama hairstyles of actor Lee Min Ho Fans can never forget

1. Boy over Flower

What a shock it was when this hot, young actor appeared on screen with his “conch” hairstyle for the 2008 drama “Boys Over Flower.”It was a hairstyle in which many people couldn’t decide if they should head to the nearest beach or grab a flat iron.

So iconic. Who can forget this wonderful Lee Min Ho hairstyle? While maybe not the most flattering look, it certainly made the right impression! This role catapulted Lee Min Ho to stardom and captured the hearts of viewers around the world!

2. City Hunter

In “City Hunter” (2011), Lee Min Ho grew out his hair a bit longer, opting for a sleek, easy look that is a personal favorite because I want to run my fingers through that hair. While I am sure it took about one hour to get his hair that perfect every morning, the hairstyle is intended to look like his character Lee Yoon Sung spends more time kidnapping corrupt politicians  than waxing his hair strand by strand.

This hair absolutely suits our man! It really frames his face well and helps to create a very flattering persona. We bet that the fans ‘d love to see Lee Min Ho try a similar look again in a future project.

3. Personal Taste

For 2010′s “Personal Taste,” Lee Min Ho opted for a more trendy cut that suited his architect character. The hairstyle looked like it required more care and time in the morning, following the stereotype of a metrosexual male look. The assumption would be that it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to say such a well-tailored man can be mistaken for being gay as Lee Min Ho’s character is in the drama.

After City Hunter, this is one of the fans all-time favorite drama hairstyles on Lee Min Ho. The hairstyle change really suited his shift to a more mature character. He also looked fantastic, but that shouldn’t surprise you at all!

4. Faith

Faith is Lee Min Ho’s only historical drama, and it showcases a much different hairstyle from any of his other projects. We can speak of two different distinct hairstyles for Lee Min Ho’s 2012 drama “Faith” – his “wild” mane and his “loyal” mane. In the first part of the fusion sageuk drama, Lee Min Ho’s warrior character Choi Young has spent the last seven years trying to sleep as much as possible to pass the days of his meaningless life.

Betrayed by the king he and his friends gave their lives to protect, Choi Young’s heart was anywhere else besides the palace he was living in. It was chained to his country out of duty, but it constantly struggled to break free. During that part of the drama, his hair reflected what was within, wild and frustrated.

5. The Heirs

In his latest drama “The Heirs,” Lee Min Ho plays a chaebol high school student. To play this young character, Lee Min Ho cut his hair short – the shortest we’ve see him so far – giving him a more playful look.

He plays it pretty safe with a well groomed haircut, which is a good fit for his character’s upper class persona. The hair makes the character – Lee Min Ho has certainly utilized his stylists well to transform into one character from another.
