Is it just me.. or do you guys also notice that a lot of the guys in Kdramas love to wear pink ?

I noticed it too, but I don't mind. I think guys in pink are hot ^_^V

You're right. It seems to be a trend in K-dramas since last year. I'd hate it if my boyfriend or guy friends wear pink, but the men in K-dramas are so hot anything is forgivable.

Korean actors whom I think look good in pink are: Hyun Bin (he wore a lot of pink clothes in MNKSS), Bi, Kim Sung Soo, Jung Kyung Ho, Jo In Sung, Kim Rae Won, Song Seung Hun. I don't even like JIS & KSS, but I'm being objective here.

They really do look good in pink.

I don't mind either :p
if they look good in it.. why not ?

Here's a couple pic that I could find quickly..

but now I'm watching My Name in Kim Sam Soon, and both the leading men ( Hyun Bin and Daniel Henney's characters ) love pink too ! :p

Pink has been pretty popular in Japan and Korea for awhile now. Last time I was in Tokyo a few months ago, everyone was wearing pink. It's just starting to hit the states. I'm not a pink type of guy, but hey, if you can pull it off, go for it.

Yea i wear pink when i go out especially parties you get noticed more, who cares if it's pink for me it's in fashion and i look good in it. More girls approach you and usually there converstation starters is "It takes a real man to wear pink" (as long as your not wearing a pink singlet or tank top your safe from being gay hahahaha)

Yea well pink suits some while doesn't suit others but i'm a polo person and got 2 shirts and nothin wrong with em

But now fad dying and since spring is coming soon looks like i'm gonna be shirtless or singlet only hahahah too hot to be wearing polo shirts u'll feel sticky

A friend tells me Pink is definitely "IN" in Korea. ;)

I don't like bright colours myself.. strong colours yes, bright. noooo i.e aquamarine or lime (cough full house) ;)

it takes a real man to wear pink..........(*_*)

Yeah, its true, lots of pink on guys in kdramas. It makes me think of the movie "My Sassy girl" when she yelled at the guy on the train for daring to come out in a pink shirt.

But as others mentioned, the guys in the shirts are hot, so its completely forgiveable!

Brightest I have is red

i guess its a wave that going all over the world...guys in pink isnt cool.... i mean sure if u wanna wear pink go ahead...i think that letting guys wear pink is kinda like a gate way drug...soon they will want to wear panties and dresses...

i wear pink... ok what i just said was a bunch of nonsense..

have you heard the brand 'pink'?
it's the british shirtmaker for the squires...
okay they don't solely sell pink colours but some variety of the 'pinks'
are seen in their collections
wear pink guys...!

BI LOOKS SO KUTE IN PINK!!!!

pink looks pretty hot on guys, its v-neck shirts i cant stand.

haha..yup yup!! so hot..especially when they show their chest!! NICE!!

Kim Jong Kuk

I don't think i'd ever be caught in a v-neck long sleeve shirt though my 3 shirts are like the guys pictured ^_^ But only wear too parites mainly coz i got too many shirts as it is already so if u wanna stand out in a party wear it

makes u stand out from everyone just wearing industrie or diesel polo shirts at least from my experience but i don't think it would look good on bigger people i'm just pretty lean and toned due to sports but i think i'd crack up if i saw a really fat man wearing pink

yea i noticed it. like HyunBin is My Lovely Samsoon. I think its starnge.. i dont like pink. But ehh. It looks good on him.

yup..i don't like pink either..but pink does look good on guys!!! (with big muscles..that is)

hey like the famous playboy owner hugh heffner once said " it takes a real man to wear pink" hahaha...... but hey some guys who can pull off pink look so good....

litoxpat wrote: hahaha...... but hey some guys who can pull off pink look so good....

yup...like bi!!! so kute!!

coachrapture wrote: It's just starting to hit the states.

so true!! It's almost everywhere now.. even one of my guy friends bought pink swimming shorts. I swear guys are starting to get more metrosexual every day.

whatever, it's only a fad.. right?

probably the first pink wearing guy has to be vegeta in DBZ, now that was one funny episode

Yeah, I never like guys with pink shirt or tshirt. But yeah, K-actors are some exception ahaha. I like Park Shin Yang w/ his pink shirt in LIP

Bi maniacs spreading like bushfire ;)

Didn't Kanye West & Cam'ron, rock the pink last year and it showed up in the hip-hop/R&B world for a while. It's not that new, just the average joe's kind of slow catching on.

Young Dude to be hip in Boston... Paper Denim & Cloth
Listen up, guys: It's September, the city has a fresh infusion of girls, and with P. Diddy rocking the white suits, Usher in pastels and Kanye West looking pretty in pink, the style bar has been raised.

Well korean people wear brighter colors...the clothes I see them wear in dramas (and at the seoul airport) remind me of the colors at Gap. Bright colors. A lot of the men like to wear white sweatpants I noticed.

This is unrelated but I was scanning around at the seoul airport

and I noticed a lot of korean men like to walk with one hand in their pant pocket. I have a thing about noticing how people walk. another example, people from the country side in China "wobble" a bit when they walk. I can't explain it. I could probably think of soo many walking styles. Weird. Do you guys notice that people from diff. places walk differently?

Pink shirt can be nice on a guy too, but if he has several pnk shrits in his wardrobe, he might have homosexual tendencies.

lots of korean guys have fair skin, btw, so pink looks good on them, and other bright colors...lime green, sky blue....it's just a diff. culture so it's natural that wordrobe colors are diff. We think of pink as girly (come on, doesn't pink remind anyone of barbie), but in Korea pink may not represent the same thing. Just like red means fortune in China while it means the Devil in america

Yes I've noticed Song Seung Hun in a couple of pink shades in Summer Scent!!! Also Bi in Full House. Some actors can actually pull it off...others....might need a new stylist!!!!

Hyun Bin in My Lovely Sam-soon

- i got this from some thread... i forget which one though... i'll credit as soon as i come across it again...

pink is lovely..i wish guys where them more often

guys in pink are HOTT!! esp. if they're already hot. haha...^_^

pink's the new black...............

or it was. i hear purple's the new pink this year. but i still haven't seen much guys in purple.........unless I read wrong and purple's the next pink next year?

my good mate donny trump wears a pink tie.

Wow!!! Korean guys looks hot in pink.

Wow, then most of the Korean guys I know must ALL have homosexual tendencies. *rolls eyes*

There are lots of Korean guys who I know who wear pink. There's nothing really 'homosexual' about it. ~___~

I think it looks ho. I like it when a guy wears pink. ^_^ Course, most guys don't except for my Korean friends ....

Quoting for the above picture.

I'm a guy, and I admit, that picture is hot.

In the 80's, I noticed some American guys wore pink tops and they weren't considered girly.

koreans have their own styles. americans and europeans have their own too. no need to criticize ? hehe but korean guys do look hot in pink. their skin colors are a little different from other actors from different countries so i say wear what makes you look HOT.

kimmie_ai_ni4 wrote:it takes a real man to wear pink..........(*_*)

i agree!! But he needs to be in good shape as well to pull off pink

Men wearing the color pink is not a problem for me. Just as long as they can rock that color nicely, then it really doesn't matter much. If they're not up for the challenge to wear a bright color such as pink, then they should not. Hyun Bin and Bi both look hot in pink, so they are totally an exception. ;D

Sorry, but korean guys looks hot in pink. There should be no argument about it. ^_^ The pictures are Proof!

i love the bright colors on asian men, pink included, but i like them best if their hair isn't dyed, but black, it just makes that color pop so much better in contrast.

and i don't think it's girly, even if the guy has feminine features to go with it, for me it seems to state quite the opposite, sort of like a hot chick in a man's suit, no way she'd come off as butch.

Yaaaa....I totally agree with you.
You know "Super Rookie" drama series?
A lot of guys wear pink neckties!

wait till u watch AJA GUM SOON, the new MBC drama.. gosh, every guy in there wears pink.. repeatedly!!!

i tot Bi in FULL HOUSE had a real bad stylist.. his clothes in der wer just way way too.. hm, how should i put this.. too over the top, to say it mildly..

Wore pink before because an ex-girlfriend made me...never wore it afterward because a gay guy hit me up!

well guys in pink are hot. so why not?

pink was a trend last year and last summer
lots of guys were wearing pink here in Quebec,Canada

i wear pink because of kdrama..
i have a lot of pink shirts now lol

They look HOT in pink... Ohh AIGOoo.... anyways i cant stand Bi in full house wearing the V-neck green sweater.. that looked soo gayy and also he crossed his leg when he sat down on the couch... and yes he was still wearing that green sweater...

THAT COMBINATION is TOTAL GAY no matter how hot Bi is... >< nO NO NO NOOO!!!!!!

The most colorful guy I've seen in kdrama is Sam Shik! Pink, purple, green! Haha, but the thing is, he looks HOT in in them all!

raspb3rry wrote:The most colorful guy I've seen in kdrama is Sam Shik! Pink, purple, green! Haha, but the thing is, he looks HOT in in them all!

Agree with you on that all the way

I just do not like guys wearing pink at all.

ahh I totally agree, pink does look hot on korean guys. ^_^ Especially Bi! Omg, he looks so hot in pink! And he looks good in v-necks! I usually don't think v-necks on guys are all that appealing but he makes them look good! I.E. in Full House he wears lots of v-necks. Can we say hot? Muwahhaha.

OMG
Bi looks so hott in pink.
A lot of Korean guys look hott in pink. ^_____^

what did they left for girls? it's not girls color anymore!

So true, well Bi's not gay. But my cousin thought so. Really whoever organized Bi's wardrobe in Full House must really have wanted Bi to open up too much (like bare his chest). I also couldn't stand him wearing too much V-neck. Everytime Bi appears with V-neck, my cousin would cringe and laugh and saying that's so gay. I have to keep explaining to her than in Asian countries, that was the fashion and they made him dress that way. Not to say that she didn't

Full House because it's become one of her favorites. After finishing Full House, she grew fond of Bi's style.

like they said it takes a real man to wear pink ^_*

well, In USA when someone guy wears pink, people look at him like is Gay...but now things are changing, i have seen many people wear pink T-shirts. It is becoming part of fashion for USA...

hey, i thought i was the only one noticing korean actors wearing alot of pink and all i have to say damn do they LOOK HOT IN THEM. It must be a trend, i have always thought korean, well asian guys mostly can pull pink of very very well and look good and hot in it without looking gay. I am not being races or anything,

but i think white guys don't really look that great with pink, some do, but mostly they look more gay when they wear pink!

I especially think, junki looks super cute and hot in pink!

Pink looks good on a good man.
I just rewatched Lovely Samsoon for the 4th time yesterday and I still love Hyun Bin and Daniel Henny in Pink.

I think that Lee Min Ki could pull off pink very well , even Kim Myung Min ( in a photoshoot I saw ) looked great in pink. =o

Light pink is okay but bright red pink is really gay. Men don't look good in pink period!
The fashion in Korean dramas for women is weird...seem like the girls wear clothe that look like layers and layer overlapping each other. I don't like these kind of fashion. Maybe they are consider "designer" but to me they look cheap. Other than that Korean traditional clothing are beautiful and colorful, that's why I feel in love with Korean historical/period dramas.

Anyone who says pink is for gay guys is just ignorant! I think Pink looks great on guys and I wish more guys would were pink. Pink is a nice color and when a guy wears it just shows he comfortable with his sexuality and he does not care what other people think! I love that and I think it really attractive!

yes its so cute!
