Long hair on K-Pop idols can be a polarising style choice. Some fans seem to love it, while for some others, it's simply not their taste. However, notwithstanding reactions to it, male idols almost always look like princes that have jumped straight out of a manga when they sport long hair. Some have even been reported to say that they do not want to cut it short once again. Of course, for fans who love the long hair, that would be a dream come true. Here's a list of male K-Pop idols that have unbelievably pulled off the long hair look!
