Over the past couple of days, the Internet has been telling us (believe it or not?) that male university students in North Korea are now required to get the same haircut as their leader Kim Jong-un.
This isn’t the first news slipping out about the DPRK issuing guidelines about how to coif your ‘do: Last year it was reported that there were 28 approved hairstyles in the country — 14 each for men and women.
But making all young North Koreans go for that singular side-shaved, slicked-back Macklemore look would be yet another sign of the Supreme Leader’s totalitarian instincts. Or a hidden sense of humor?
Anyway, our preliminary research has found that, yes, the Jong-un look can be a fashion disaster for many … but not all. How does it look to you?
