Stray Kids' Hyunjin revealed the reason he grew his long hair. On the 21st, Stray Kids appeared as guests on the JTBC variety show 'Knowing Bros' in Korea. On this day, Hyunjin talked about his long hair, saying, 'The first reason I grew it out was that I wanted to be unique and thought, 'Let's try long hair.' At that time, there weren't many people with long hair. I thought I would try it, and I've kept it for about 3 to 4 years since then.' Hyunjin, who was the only one with long hair in Stray Kids at first, was asked how he felt when Felix suddenly grew his hair out, to which he replied, 'He and I have different vibes,' eliciting laughter. Felix shared that having long hair has 'many downsides,' saying it takes over 7 minutes to dry and extends meal times.
