Jeonghan Looks Rank: part 6
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...
๐ S TIER
The Day Jeonghan First Peaked
I don't know the exact date this show was filmed, it's vocu doing some interview and performing 20. This is the day Jeonghan hit his first peak. Just completely irresistible beauty.
I remember they had to show their talents and Jeonghan's talent was just making different faces for the camera lol. Also, he was manspreading backstage and that was the exact second he first peaked.
2. Jeonghan's 20th Birthday
Jeonghan's first birthday as an idol! I dunno WHAT was in the air that day, but such gorgeousness is rarely seen in the wild like this. It's a day that lives on in my memory...
Like holy shit, he somehow leveled up right before my very eyes. Charisma +50 immediately.
Those eyes...I hope the fangirls who were there that day all survived, because I would've keeled over and died. This day was also the true birth of Jeongcheol, because Scoups was under SOME sort of spell lol. If this was just fanservice, he should go into acting.
3. Pretty U Jeonghan
Jeonghan cut his long hair for the first time and transformed into the neighbor boy of dreams.
It's probably the best bob in kpop if we're being real. Having his hair shorter really brought out his boyish side. If I lived in the same suburbs as him, it'd be OVER.
Seems like he was more carefree after cutting the hair off, too. I guess initially he was supposed to keep up a "pretty and sweet" persona to match his looks, and with the short hair there was more freedom in that regard? I'm not sure. It's also worth mentioning that while the long blond hair enchanted scoups, josh was the one enamored with the new boyish Jeonghan lol.
4. Boom Boom Jeonghan (non-aerodynamic)
When they didn't make his hair extremely wind-resistant, this was a fantastic Jeonghan. He's getting a bit more handsome, rather than just pretty.
It also seems like he's in his "being famous is so fun!" era lol. Every pic from this era he's cheesing like crazy and clearly enjoying life. It's charming.
Also, he had legs! What a shocker! I almost never get to see the Jeonglegshape anymore, but it was plentiful in early 2017! The OFD Japan Jeonghan was also remarkably cute.
5. 25th Dream Concert Jeonghan
Spring 2019 was good to Jeonghan. He was sort of...radiating...vibes...if you know what I mean. Real ones know what I mean. Anyways, this concert had a particularly good Jeonghan.
Like yup that's a good Jeonghan alright. Kinda delicious if I'm being real. Dare I say Jeonghan sexy? No ... I don't dare.
Just generally a good Jeonghan, the best silver Jeonghan for SHORE. Everything was on point and he was like. Well. Glowing. With sexy.
6. Flute Jeonghan
Known as such for his T-shirt with the word FLUTE written on it, this was just a particularly good day for Jeonghan. Watch the fancams from this day if you wanna know what I mean, he was full of vitality for some reason...like, it was giving GLOWING!
I've also never seen him dance so confidently lol. I don't think gifs really do it justice. He was feeling himself.
Also, there was a fansign on the same day either before or after this, which is where the infamous Jeonghan "begging for a crumb of pussy" clip comes from. I guess it was spring fever lol.
7. Don't Lie I Jeonghan
Jeonghan's cartoonish villain arc really took off with Gose. During this episode we really got to see him get all smug and scheming, turns out that's one of his best looks!
Like THIS is sexy Jeonghan to me. I think because he looks like he's gonna mansplain manipulate malewife at me. The smirking was excessive and I don't know why he had to have his shirt unbuttoned like that.
Also, we got to see the Jeongcollarbone! Another new body part unlocked, jjfs rejoiced.
8. Home Run Jeonghan
It turns out that Jeonghan really suits old man styling lol. With his swoopy oikawa hair and dashing good looks, he was able to make some of the most "uncle goes gambling" outfits look good.
Like wow, kind of a babe. Yeah let's go to the casino I'm sure you'll win if you keep trying. You always win right after a losing streak, come on! Also, his face was FACEING in the mv.
9. Ready to Love Jeonghan (rockstar style)
You're actually SHITTING me that they only styled him like this once. Omg. Talk about a waste. Like look at the material omg... that's a rockstar right there. I'll forever be mad that they released a great song with great choreo and a great Jeonghan only to barely utilize him or style him properly.
I do want to give a shout out to when they would tie his hair back into that little ponytail though, at least I got something.
10. Attacca Mermaid Jeonghan
Like... you're JOKING.
When I first saw these I was like, moved. I still think about them all the time.
Jeonghan mermaid save me...save me Jeonghan mermaid...take me with you Jeonghan mermaid...
11. Caratland 2023 Jeonghan
Jeonghan proving that men in their late 20s can still be cutie patooties and make me need to eat them. I truly hope he does this well into his 30s.
The long hair was in preparation for Super, but it hadn't reached its full length and was sort of a bob that they would put into this half-ponytail.
It suited him stupidly well and I'm not sure how he manages to stay so cute. It's giving mascot.
12. Super Jeonghan
Say what you will about Super, but it definitely got people's attention, not least because it contained within its depths a most gorgeous Jeonghan. He's wearing traditional korean clothes (don't ask me from what time period these are supposed to be from or if they're even historically accurate, I don't know any more than you do.)
It's also the first time in a while that Jeonghan really allowed them to put makeup on him, which is always fun to see! His hair is tied up with a binyeo, which is a hairpin traditionally meant for women, a nod to the old carat days of yore. Apparently binyeos used to be unisex but then were made to be exclusively for women, so maybe this is breaking gender boundaries or making some statement? Lmfao I'm assuming it's just because it looks pretty but the carat discussion was pretty funny that day. It's also an angel wing pin, which is cute! Definitely my favorite "modern" Jeonghan look.
And that's all for the ranking! If there's a look I missed and you want to know my opinion, hit me up @sarafsoda!
