Not being a native English speaker I was wondering about that many times myself. Judging from the captions on photographs I saw, "bobbed" is anything between the ear-length and shoulder length. And according to the dictionary bob means hair the same length around your head. But I see that this term is actually used more loosely than that.

 

I have a theory about that. This style is actually the easiest to maintain for straight, thick and "stiff" hair - when individual hairs are not flexible, but quite rigid. If you cut such hair with a fringe and shorter sides, this hairstyle is what you get after just washing and towel-drying. Anything else requires a lot of product and hair gel. Not many people would want to bother with that every day.

 

That is why I still think JH maintained his long hair for so long after TMWYS and only cut it for the Hometown Flex - strainght hair is actually easier to maintain if it is longer (may be a different story with a frizzy or curly hair). But for a straight hair -  you just wash it, comb it, dry it and put in a pony tail. Does not get into your eyes while exercising or working and still looks presentable.

But it was not a good idea for a show where you visit your hometown, because for men it has this slightly bohemian, hippy image.

I think you might be right. In the few pics we saw of him in the gym or in that youtube show with his friend, his hair was completely straight, so I think you are right that he kept it cause it's easier to maintain. And I also agree about him cutting it before the show- I can't imagine the amount of teasing he would have gotten if he still had the longer hair, not to mention the reaction from the busan people around him. He already got quite a bit of attention, but with the longer hair I think it would have tripled.

OMG, I am missing this look sooooo much

Edit: @Biology Lesson, let's hope that after the positive reaction of HT he will get a good offer soon...

Much as I am bafled by the popularity of this show, I am happy JH gets positive review and steals the show even when not saying much. :wub:

I actually like the second episode much better, JH was more talkative, and, to you, I would recommend watching the bit they spent in the cinema. In that bit JH shared a lot about his professional influences, the movies that shaped him. And you can see how passionate he is about acting and cinema... This is where we got a little glimpse of intense and talkative JH. But I also loved the last part, though I think they could have done without pranking Si Eon. He was really hurt that no one, and especially JH, was willing to join him... But it was interesting to see JH's influence on yet another Korean actor and see just how much he admires and even idolizes JH. I was fascinated to see how open he was about his admiration to JH, and how uncomfortable JH was with it :). Love the last part when JH surprised him and joined him, almost making Si Eon cry... 

JH came across fantastic from this show- the contrast between his shy, laid back  and quirky personality, and the admiration he got, I think made the viewer that doesn't know JH that much intrigued about him, and this is what we want to see, more young people exposed to his talent.

 

Oh, and another thing I noticed- when they spoke about watching movies in Busan, they spoke about simultaneous showings, I think. And Si Eon said that usually the second movie was more... of the adult kind, and they started talking about it, laughing. The thing is that, yet again, JH said nothing about that. This is something I noticed- JH almost never speaks about anything sexual, never makes a sexual joke. I noticed that also in the Wassup man youtube episode. The only time I saw him talk about anything like that what when he spoke about seeing a porn movie by mistake in the Guru show:), but that show is not translated...

Hmmm... from what we saw in the show, I got the impression that no one reacted to their presence. So there were screaming girls around them while they were filming, and the production simply made sure to edit them out?! Look at CTH smiling in reaction while JH ignoring... Also, it seems like JH still behaved like he had his long hair, so no need to protect his neck! :)

Hi Everyone! Did you all get "locked out" also these past few days? Unable to come in, it said Community Not Found...!

Yep. I think all Soompi's forums were down... Got me worried a bit, but now we're back! :issohappy:

So, how has things been going? The only new thing I saw was JH's new picture, that he posted on his IG. I thought he looks incredible in it, very intense. The stark contrast between that picture and how he came across in Hometown flex is amazing. I think this side of him, that I'm sure exists, JH will never show in a Variety show... Made me think about how he said that sometimes he does get so angry on set that he wants to explode, but he never does. That shows what incredible self control he has... I actually wouldn't mind seeing him angry... :)

@dramafan33 When I came in to check earlier on, our earlier posts became unreadable...I was so shocked! Was afraid what you told me about us losing all the stuff might come through..haha! Thank goodness!!

 

So happy to see everyone back here! 

Was dying to read what you all think about his latest IG post.

 

 

I flipped his pic laterally using his mole as a reference..Lol.

 

Some fans were worried about him looking so thin and tired.

 

On the same day, a Naver article mentioned about his post:

"Actor Jang Hyuk showed off a masculine visual.

Jang Hyuk posted a photo on his Instagram on July 25.

In the photo, Jang Hyuk looks out of the window in the car. Jang Hyuk's eerie nose and quiet eyes make his eyes catch. Even Jang Hyuk's masculine aura attracts attention.

Fans who saw the photo responded with "I want to see it in their work", "Good-looking", and "It's cool".

Jang Hyuk appeared in the OCN drama'Speak as You See', which ended in March. (Photo = Jang Hyuk Instagram)"

All I want to know is why he posted it; does it have a significance- as it wasn't just a random picture of him smiling into the camera while giving his trade mark three fingered V... Maybe he decided to counter the image that came out from Hometown Flex? Or maybe this is his look for a new role (oh, please let this option be right!)...  I just want to know... :criesariver:

Completely agree, I think he looks super masculine! Also, I don't remember another character with this look...

I was wondering why too..then I remembered someone mentioned he can be pretty random. Now I just need him to post again or to hear news of his new project!

 

I agree that this look is masculine, totally different from his Hometown flex cute and boyish look. Some fans even started speculating his involvement in Voice 4 which is starting its filming or have started. But highly unlikely..

So this pic might mean nothing at all? Rats!<_<

 

You guys said that most actors don't work as much as JH usually does... I wonder how they handle that, cause I just can't take it this small hiatus!

Oh, no! NOT Voice! I'd rather he not do any show for one more month, than waste his time doing voice...

That was probably me? :D  (In any case I agree with that person). I really don’t think this has any significance. He opened that IG account on a whim, in the same fashion he was just probably bored and decided to post a selfie on a whim. It’s not the first time he posts a serious selfie (in fact, his selfies are mostly serious) Also not the first time he looks skinny or gaunt, as people say. But anyway, I am happy he posted something new. I, like everyone else, am really desperate for him to announce a new project. I now truly miss him.

Hello everyone! Missed you guys! 
 

agree, no Voice. I think I’d rather another 6 months of no drama than to watch him do Voice. Are they so desperate to extend the franchise? I think 3 is enough, no? 

Infact when I couldn't get in the thread past days, I tried sending message to @azureblue7@Biology Lessonjust to make sure I wasn't the only one but no, the messages couldn't go through too.

 

Agree with you @The Reel Lifeno VOICE. But it seemed the covic is coming back - hope no 2nd wave. Not sure if there's any new drama/movie.

 

Btw, that pic of him looked so thin. Was it recent?

 

Just what I've been up to, watching Turkish drama. How desperate can one be now with JH drama famine? Hahaha! 

 

Oh...this Fan Level thingy...what is that? Lol...
