For a while, DAY6‘s Sungjin and BTS‘s Jungkook have been well known as K-Pop lookalikes. It’s just that, over the past few years, Sungjin has worn his hair long, so the resemblance was less noticeable.

- “Are we sure he’s not some distant relative of Jungkook? They really do look alike.”
- “This is so much better!”
- “Well done, seriously.”
- “Oh look, the sexy poodle went to the groomers.”
- “His features really pop now.”
- “Wow, seriously a hundred times better. He could pass as Jungkook’s older brother.”
- “Finally!”
- “Finally!!!”
- “Even the whole ‘growing out his hair, cutting it, and the fans celebrating’ is just like Jungkook, LOL.”
- “So handsome, I’m so happy he cut his hair.”
- “Wow, hairstyles really do make a big difference.”
As for why Sungjin decided to part with his iconic look, he shared with his fans in a live broadcast that he actually had been wanting to cut his hair short for a while.
사실 머리는 원래 자르고 싶었는데
헤어팀이 해보고 싶은 머리가 있대서
해보라고 좀 버텨줬던 거라고…

Why did I cut my hair so short all of a sudden? I’ve been meaning to get it cut for a while, actually. But the styling team told me that there were some looks they wanted to experiment with, so I’ve been holding out for them. Once they were done, chop! I went to get it cut.
