Gone is his usual poodle haircut…

Kim Soo Hyun’s latest Prada ad has become a hot topic online, and it’s easy to see why. The video shows the fan-favorite actor rocking a sleek, mature vibe that’s a bit different from what we’re used to seeing from him. Fortunately, fans seem to be loving the fresh look!
In the campaign, Kim Soo Hyun gives off major grown-up and sophisticated energy. It’s actually pretty in line with something he mentioned in an Esquire interview not too long ago — the actor said he’s thinking about taking on more mature roles in the future.
While we haven’t seen it happen in a K-Drama or movie yet, this Prada collab definitely hints at what’s to come.
The ad has been blowing up online. A post about it on a popular forum racked up over 23,000 views in just a few hours, and the posts on Prada’s and Kim Soo Hyun’s social media accounts are already nearing half a million likes. Safe to say, people are loving it.
However, not everyone is 100% on board with the styling. While most fans are all about the new look, a few have some thoughts about his hairstyle, saying it could’ve been a little neater. In the hundreds of comments under the viral TheQoo post, some netizens had a bit of criticism to share.
- “Whatever he does, it suits him so well. That’s his biggest strength.”
- “Oh, this feels different, but it suits him nicely!”
- “That hairstyle looks great on him too. Seriously cool.”
- “He pulls off that style really well. Impressive!”
- “The hairstyle is a bit disappointing… The sideburns could have been cleaned up better, and the back of the hair looks like it wasn’t handled properly… sigh.”
