Over the weekend, BTS's Jungkook shocked us [1] by debuting a brand-new hair color [2] right before the K-pop group's "Permission to Dance" concert on Oct. 24, and the BTS Army can hardly stand it. The singer, who previously had black hair, can be seen with a platinum blond hair color [3] in a photo obtained by fans, but the light hue didn't last long before Jungkook switched it up yet again. During soundcheck for the concert, he clearly added a green-blue tint to it [4], trying the blue mist hair-color trend [5] on for size.
Fans were quick to point out this isn't the first time Jungkook opted for a lighter hair color. We last saw him blond in January of 2021, but this minty blond hue is a big departure from that. Still, Jungkook is no stranger to striking hair transformations. The singer has tried a variety of unconventional hair colors over the years, from bright blue to smoky gray.
It's unclear whether this minty blond hair color shade is a permanent switch for the result of a temporary tint, but judging by the BTS Army reactions on Twitter, people are liking it. "How is Jungkook even real???" read one user's tweet [6] after the concert, while another said [7], "blonde jungkook is ethereal."
