Move over alpaca hairstyle—there's a new trendy look in town that's coming for tween and teen boys. It's the K-Pop Haircut, and not only do I see my teen son's friends rocking it, but I am also noting how it's a throwback to a 90s heartthrob look—and you'll never believe who. The One Topic My Teen Son and I Can Always Talk About Without Fighting Now then. The K-pop haircut is built around a center part, with hair on either side brushed down in a simple and effortless-looking cool-guy esthetic. Of course, there's primping it the mirror and products that achieve that look, according to stylists. (I predict that, next to cologne, guys are going to be shopping hair styling products galore.) Unlike previous more permed or poofy styles, the K-pop haircut is sleeker and longer in front, while still short or tapered in the back. You can see the look on emerging artists such as Taemin of boy band SHINee and mega stars like Jin of the band BTS. ABC Photo Archives/Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty Images; The Good Brigade/Getty But back to that '90s heartthrob I identified. Todays youth influencer and vlogger Sebasian Moy rocks the look with pieces of his long center-parted bangs hanging in his face, heartthrob style; millennials will remember the same haircut on their '90s teen crush, the character Jordan Catalano from My So-Called Life. (This was the TV show that introduced Claire Danes and future Academy Award-winner Jared Leto to viewing audiences.) Here's how to get the look. After having a haircut parted down the middle, short in the back and sides, use a bit of product. Stylist Jason Schneidman of California Born salon in Venice, California says the look is as much California surfer as it is K-pop star. He swipes a little bit of Days of Dirt styling gel through the hair to get a textured look. 'The hair is not sticky or stiff, and the product adds moisture to the hair and allows hair to fall with perfect separation,' he says. 'Hair often looks fluffy flat and dry after shampooing, but this adds the perfect lived in look, like you've been surfing all day." K-pop star, '90s TV actor or surfer dude, I'm co-signing this style for young guys. A fresh take on the classic long-bangs style, I think it's flattering. Of course, as a mom, I'm always going to worry about too much hair hanging on the face and causing breakouts—but I'm letting that anxiety take a back seat to aesthetics for now. 50 Gifts for Teen Boys, According to Actual Teenagers and Their Parents

TXT , labelmates of BTS, have recently made their much-awaited comeback on May 2 with the new song 'Love Language'; however, things haven't been entirely smooth. Netizens have pointed out similarities between TXT's song and Taemin 's 'Guilty', sparking major debate online. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Fans point out certain similarities between 'Love Language' and 'Guilty' Fans took to online social media platforms and fan forums to share their concerns. Many observed that there were a lot of similarities allegedly between TXT's new song's concept photographs and their choreography and SHINee Taemin 's song 'Guilty'. What only became fuel to the fire was that a past comment from TXT's agency regarding Taemin resurfaced online and caused even more backlash among the community. The specific part of the choreography that prompted fans to start this debate is the move of lifting their shirts and exposing their abs. While the move may not seem something new, its' similarity to Taemin's 'Guilty', which also contains a similar move, prompted fans to discuss the issue. The concept photos for both were also quite similar, according to fans. The agency's comment According to Pinkvilla, a comment made by TXT's agency also sparked outrage online and was called to be 'derogatory' towards the singer. The comment made by the company described Taemin as shota-like, i.e., someone who uses their charm and personality to attract young boys. The comment resurfaced after Taemin's fans wanted to mock the company for using the idol whom they made fun of as 'inspiration'. While the group has had a successful comeback so far, with the song becoming more and more popular after its release, speculations like this keep on arising. While the debate was going on, MOAs (TXT's fans) stood by the K-Pop boy group and defended them by sharing that it is a common move and cannot be plagiarised.
