Media outlet CNN Style recently mentioned Kim Seokjin (Jin) as an icon of the wolf cut hairstyle.
"Popular across genders, the wolf cut is thought tohave originated in the salons of South Korea, taking its name from the wild, untamed look the heavy layers create, resembling the fur of its namesake. To take things further, the style is often set in place on loosely permed hair, to ensure an expertly tousled look."
This photo looks like a scene from a K-drama:
These days such hairstyle is trendy among Gen Z. Jin used to have this hairstyle a year ago, being ahead of the global fashion.
Jin is known to be a member that tends to impulsively experiment with his hair. For example, he once bleached his hair 2 hours before the concert.
Talking about the roots of a wolf cut hairstyle, the article states:
"It comes as no suprise that a look rooted in androgyny and gender non-conformism has reappeared today on the heads of a generation -- boys, girls and non-binary people -- that is increasingly comfortable with the idea of gender fluidity."
Bonus: Jin used to wear a headband while dancing and took funny photos playing with his hair while having a wolf cut.
I'm here to remind you seokjin's hair looked like this only a few months ago
I have beef with anyone who doesn't support the WolfJin agenda, yes I'm talking about you cough cough* Hamjinnies! And don't ever come for Seokjin's Wolf cut/Mullet because it's the king of mullets! This a bold cut and not everyone can carry it the way Seokjin has! It gives him an edgy look but still makes him look well put together! Seokjin with long hair is something to beware of! Seokjin is Iconic, even his hair is setting trends!
