In the entertainment industry, where visual presentation often determines the public’s first impression, makeup artists and hairstylists play an exceptionally important role. They not only “polish” an idol’s appearance to make them look confident and captivating, but also help convey the right style, personality, and concept.
The sкιℓℓed hands of these behind-the-scenes professionals account for nearly half of an artist’s success whenever they step into the public eye. Naturally, no idol wants their appearance to become the subject of negative discussion among fans. This is why most companies and artists place great importance on finding experienced, compatible stylists they can work with for many years.
Within the K-Pop industry, several hairstylists and makeup artists have established strong reputations and long-standing partnerships with top idols—such as Park Nae Joo of Bit & Boot, hairstylist Choi Mujin of Faire by Mujin, legendary makeup artist Jung Saem Mool, and OUI Beauty makeup artist Lee Mijin, among others.
Among them, Choi Mujin has been a top favorite hairstylist of V and several BTS members since 2019. On one occasion, Mujin even shared on his Instagram Story that V had gifted him a signed postcard with the message: “To Mujin hyung, … Please always leave an empty slot in your schedule for me … so I’m able to contact you / keep in touch.” In response, Mujin replied humorously: “Yes Sir, Captain THV.”

With years of experience styling “the Most Handsome Man in the World,” Choi naturally sparked curiosity about how he creates V’s signature looks. Fortunately, in a special interview with Elevate Seoul on November 13, fans were finally able to hear him share his insights on working with the top K-Pop superstar.
When asked whether he had any specific tips or techniques for styling V, Director Choi offered a small but striking revelation—he straightforwardly praised V’s visuals, admitting that the idol looks incredibly good even without doing much at all.
He said: "To be honest, he's so handsome that he doesn't even need styling! I try to make his natural charm stand out as much as possible, just styling to match the mood of the day!”
After the interview clip was posted on the Instagram account of L’Oréal Pro Master Artist, it quickly went viral across social media platforms. Fans wholeheartedly agreed with the hairstylist’s αѕѕessment of Taehyung’s natural visuals, noting that his comment perfectly captured the truth: V’s appearance suits virtually any style he chooses.
Some of the most notable reactions from fans and netizens included:
