K-pop Star Chaeyeon’s Surprising Hair Transplant Revelation on ‘Knowing Bros’
Singer Chaeyeon of IZ*ONE Embarks on a Hair Journey
Chaeyeon’s Unexpected Confession
On the recent episode of JTBC’s popular show ‘Knowing Bros’, former IZ*ONE member and dynamic singer Chaeyeon took the spotlight with a surprising revelation. As guests including summer queens Kim Wan-sun, Narsha, and Moon Chanel livelily graced the show, Chaeyeon unveiled a personal story that left the studio buzzing.
A ‘Waterbomb’ Experience:
Chaeyeon shared memories from her first Waterbomb Festival performance where she faced a stylistic mishap. To fill in sparse areas, Chaeyeon thoroughly applied hair mascara, which unfortunately washed away due to water exposure during the event. “After the wave, my head felt empty,” she humorously recalled, adding that rumors of her hair loss escalated from the incident.
With a determined spirit to continue her Waterbomb appearances, Chaeyeon opted for a hair transplant, adding, “I transplanted 3,571 hair follicles,” which drew astonishment from her fellow guests.
Studio Reactions and Insights:
Narsha exclaimed, “3,000 hairs is a lot,” while co-host Seo Jang-hoon humorously speculated if the transplant was done by noted expert Han Sang-bo, appearing earlier on ‘Knowing Bros’. Chaeyeon amusingly confirmed this, highlighting the interconnectedness of the show’s ‘universe’.
A Broader Discussion on Hair Transplants
Chaeyeon’s transparent discussion brings to light a broader topic often left unmentioned in the entertainment industry—personal grooming and the lengths artists go to maintain their public image.
As the industry continues to evolve, discussions like these encourage openness and transparency, thus softening the stigmas around personal care choices.
