Korean man in a suit, with long hair in a pony tail.
I think this is really silly. For Gods sake!!!! Make up your mind!!!! either take the conservative buisness look, or the hippy look. You can't have both. |

Well, if it's a shiny suit, then it makes complete sense all of the sudden. |

Any Korean man in a pony tail is cool looking.
The op of this thread is Korean and espousing his cultural values, okay, but for many of us waygooks, seeing a Korean man resist social pressure and dare to be different is a refreshing surprise.

yeah, Korean men and shiny suits!!! lol
How about the arrogant spitting men in shiny suits while squatting and smoking a cigarette? They look up at the passing waygook with condescension and scorn and bravado unaware of how silly they look. A half dozen times I've come across that very situation and I kick myself for not taking a picture. |

I think the pony tail look works for some men.  |

In order to really assess the silliness factor..... I need to know: does he have a big bald spot to go with the pony tail? Extra silliness points for this if he does.... |

Your not your job. Just because you have to wear a suit, it doesn't mean that it defines who you are. A suit is a uniform that many jobs demand.
To some its just hair. Not everyone thinks of it as a definition of who they are.
I shave my head in summer because it feels less hot. I don't think of myself as conservative or a nazi.
I let my hair grow out in winter and I don't think of myself as wanting to be a hippy because its growing. |

It could be worse; it could be a mullet. |

Any Korean, man or woman, showing style that goes against the grain is very sexy to me. And I like the ponytail on a man (of course, no mullet!) I guess I would say my favorite look for men is "scruffy-chic"....of course, naturally sexy people don't have to try very hard. Luck of the draw, cruelly. You can't learn it. |

Why don't you make a list of all the posters you think are Korean for us? I bet it's pretty long. |

what if he was a korean yakuza or something? i'd say that'd make him pretty cool. but as a person who hails from a big city, i've seen american businessmen commit similarly bad fashion crimes. also from a statistical standpoint, your survey is constructed in a way that skews data in favor of him being silly  |
