There are many people, regardless of age or gender, who are worried about thinning hair.
Hair loss is a disease caused not only by genetic factors but also by various problems that modern people suffer such as stress, irregular lifestyle and lack of nutrition.
Recently, male celebrities in their 40s and 50s as well as male celebrities in their 20s and 30s have expressed their concerns about hair loss through broadcasts, drawing keen attention from fans.
We introduce male celebrities who are deeply concerned about hair loss but maintain abundant hair through extraordinary management.
1. Block B Zico
Block B Zico shared his concerns about partial hair loss. In 2019, Zico appeared as a guest on MBC FM4U’s “Kim Shin-young’s Noon Song of Hope”. He revealed that he had partial hair loss due to stress while preparing for the release of the album “THINKING Part.1”.
Zico said, “The whole process of thinking about new songs, making them, taking album jacket photos and checking reviews is stressful. I got a hair loss shot and even received treatment.”
2. Winner Song Mino
Winner Song Mino is also suffering from hair loss. In 2018, Song Mino appeared on MBC’s “Radio Star” and expressed his concerns about hair loss, “During the filming of ‘New Journey to the West’, my hair got ripped off too much while playing games. Originally I’m thin-haired, but it still bothers me because I’m an idol.”
He calmly analyzed the cause of his hair loss, “I like hip-hop and I wear a hat every day, so it seems like I have no hair. My father lost some hair in the middle. I think there’s a genetic influence as well.” Song Mino is said to have received a “hair loss prevention helmet” as a gift from his father. However, Song Mino made everyone burst into laughter as he confessed, “I was so ashamed at such a young age.”
3. MBLAQ Mir

When appearing on MBN’s “Falling for Korea – Transnational Couples” in 2021, Super Junior Kim Hee-chul announced the fact of his hair loss.
