Hwang Jung Eum Debuts Unique Hair Transformation
Hallyu star Hwang Jung Eum is finally back in the game as she makes her first ever drama in three years with "The Escape of the Seven."
While she's known for her romantic comedy dramas, the actress spices up prime time as she chooses to appear in the survival series.
A week before its release, Hwang Jung Eum stirs the Internet with her fresh new look in her latest Instagram update where she sports the polarizing "microbangs" trend.
Microbangs, also known as baby bangs, are a huge trend among millennials and Gen Zs. They are categorized with super short bangs that are only an inch below the forehead.
Many stars like Lee Sung Kyung, Kim Tae Ri and Nana have also rocked the hairdo. However, Hwang Jung Eum isn't new to crazy hairstyles herself.
To recall, the actress donned an "ahjumma hair" or short permed locks in "Full House 2" in 2012. In her hit drama "She Was Pretty," Hwang Jung Eum had a frizzy bob.
Netizens complimented the actress despite learning that they were only clip on bangs. Because the fringe made her look younger, the fans still flooded the photo with love.
