3rd Gen Idol “Irritates” Fans Over His Facial Hair

While there is an expected image for idols to have, one source of continued pushback involves body hair.  Specifically, male idols are expected to remain clean-shaven and have been criticized for not doing so.

NCT Fans Come To Mark’s Defense Over Discussion About His Facial Hair

Recently, however, a male idol has left fans feeling some amusing frustration over his facial hair.

As many known, GOT7‘s Jackson Wang has been active as a solo artist, and recently wrapped up one leg of his Magic Man 2 world tour.

The idol has been resting since, and recently shared that he was letting his facial hair grow out for a while.

Naturally, fans were very interested in seeing what the idol looked like with longer facial hair, but as usual with Jackson, he enjoyed playing games. In particular, the idol ignored the massive demands, instead questioning if fans were really interested.

So Jackson deleted his post saying there’s wasn’t enough demand for the beard. He must have saw how annoyed we were 😅
