Jeonghan Looks Rank: part 5
What it says on the tin.
I'll be going through all of Jeonghan's most iconic looks and decide which ones are the best and which ones could've used some, uh...tinkering.
I'll be dividing the looks into the following categories:
๐ S TIER, iconic, no notes, impacted my life.
โค๏ธ A TIER, gorgeous and amazing to look at.
๐งก B TIER, pretty and above average.
๐ C TIER, did its job adequately.
๐ D TIER, was hit and miss.
๐ F TIER, was not my fave at all.
Each tier's looks will be presented in chronological order.
With that all being said, let's dive into...
โค๏ธ A TIER
1. 17 Project Jeonghan
Right before debut, Seventeen still had a "dark concept". Therefore, the only major difference between this Jeonghan and Adore U Jeonghan is that his hair was an inch shorter and they made him wear eyeliner.
Jeonghan is notorious for hating eye makeup, so it's interesting to see him with the eyeliner since it didn't really happen again after this.
Also, bad boy 19 year-old Jeonghan...awww... he's a sweetie pie. I bet all the girls had a crush on him.
2. Adore U Jeonghan
They may not have let him sing, but they certainly had him front and center mugging all over the place. For good reason, too! Jeonghan was used as the main stan bait, catching the public's attention with his dramatic features and luscious locks.
They had him wear his hair up in a ponytail pretty often since it got in his face during performances, but there's a few performances where he's got it down and it's flowing everywhere.
Beauty of life. The androgynous look actually wasn't too popular back then, with the exceptions of Ren and Taemin, so you can say he was a trendsetter. Paved the way for Hyunjin and Wonbin's brands!
3. Mansae Jeonghan (bleach blond)
The part of the boys be photoshoot where's he's got the enfant terrible shirt is probably one of the best Jeonghans we ever got. If this Jeonghan was restricted to that look alone, it'd be S tier.
Just look at the material! Unfortunately, they also fucked him up a little in a different part of the photoshoot lol.
I am once again asking you to stop bleaching Jeonghan's eyebrows etc. He also had it in a long ponytail sometimes, which was nice.
4. Harley Quinn Jeonghan
I'm actually not as big a fan of this look as most jjfs, but he was certainly beautiful. For once, the contacts they gave him weren't the stuff of nightmares! I guess I just wish they added more volume to his hair? Anyways, this is A tier because of all the yaoi that ensued.
Like jesus christ, keep it in your pants. We also got the iconic "Chan, don't look!" followed by his snarky "I already know everything anyways!"
5. Happy Ending Jeonghan
The song was shit. The jeonghan, however, was incredible. They had him all dolled up for the Japanese jjfs that had recently developed a cult around him.
Promotions for this single sorta overlap with the 2019 silver Jeonghan, so this is sort of a subcategory of that. They always had him in some flowy blouse dramatically falling to his knees and shit lol.
6. An Ode Jeonghan (blonde)
This was where the whole "angel" thing got taken to the next level. You couldn't breathe without seeing just the GLOWINGLY WHITEST fansite pics ever lol. But seriously, this Jeonghan was gorgeous.
They bleached him a few times, so you got various shades of blonde ranging from platinum to white.
The famous HIT photoshoot was also delish. Jjfs still talk about it to this very day... Idk he was peaking a bit! When jjfs call him a natural blond, this is the Jeonghan they're talking about.
Obligatory Jeongmarblestatue mention.
7. Left & Right Jeonghan
His masc era. Just to prove that he could pull it off, Jeonghan started hitting the gym and getting in touch with his inner dudebro. Although the muscles have long since disappeared, he's been markedly more dudebro in personality ever since.
Like it may not look like much, but for JEONGHAN these are crazy gains. The whole henggarae era he was full of smug fuckboi energy. He knew he looked good and the confidence was kinda hot.
Just... He is my boyfriend I fear. Like, I FEAR.
8. Ready to Love Jeonghan (wavy)
They kept me away from her and I hate them for it...like if you have THIS good of a Jeonghan, why's he barely in the music video!? You cretins.
Thankfully, it's not the only place he appears. There were photoshoots and performances where he's got this look, too.
If I'm being real though, I liked this hair a bit better when they styled it straight! More about that in S tier.
9. Attacca Jeonghan (casual)
Jeonghan actually cut his hair off before the era started, but we got one of the best photoshoots of all time. Jeonghan buttoning up his shirt like whoa...sensual! Also, I got to see his bellybutton, which probably should've bumped this up to S tier.
10. ADLV Jeonghan
Jeonghan got hired as a model for some fashion brand. They dressed him up like a skater boy, gave him a messy mop of hair, and had him manspread all over the place. I am profoundly easy to please.
The picture below is the reason I even bother with men.
And that concludes Tier A! See you soon for Tier S!
