EXO's D.O. gets spotted in blonde hair while dining with Kim Woo Bin in Japan, fans call him 'Greek god'
EXO's D.O. sported a blonde hair look for the first time since his debut in the entertainment industry. Fans went into a frenzy as the pictures and videos from his latest sighting got viral on May 28. He was seen enjoying his free time having a nice meal in Japan with acquaintances, including Kim Woo Bin. His new look drew a lot of attention and his hanging out with the actor sparked curiosity as to whether some joint project was on the horizon.
Doh Kyung Soo aka D.O. caught fans off guard with a surprise appearance in Japan sporting a fresh new look. While hair color changes are a common trend among K-pop idols, it was particularly surprising in D.O.'s case due to his signature understated style. Throughout his career with EXO and in various acting projects, D.O. has been known for embracing a more natural aesthetic. He never got tattoos or piercings and rarely dyed his hair, let alone experimenting with bold colours.
Fans were quick to shower their idol with praise for his new blonde look, speculating about the inspiration behind the transformation. With his upcoming drama The Manipulated set to premiere in the second half of 2025, some fans are wondering if this new image is a deliberate choice to promote the project. Regardless of the reason, D.O.'s fans are clearly loving the change and eagerly anticipating what's to come. They praised his visuals, with one calling him a "Greek god".
D.O. is also gearing up for a solo musical comeback, with fans expecting the release around July. It's possible that his new blonde look is connected to a music video shoot for this project. Another possible reason for the artist's bleached hair and his dinner date with Kim Woo Bin might be their upcoming project together– tvN's reality TV series Green Bean, Red Bean. The production team has indeed started filming for a new season, adding fuel to the rumour.
No matter what the reason for his sudden change in appearance might be, we are loving a blonde Doh Kyung Soo, aren't we?

Who is BTS' Suga? Inside the K-pop star's $40M rise as he returns from military service today
BTS star Suga is officially done with his military service. After his return, attention is turning not only to his comeback to the global stage but also to the impressive fortune he has built during his career. With an estimated net worth of $30 to $40 million, Suga—real name Min Yoon-gi—has quietly become one of the most financially successful K-pop artists of his generation. Born in Daegu, South Korea, in 1993, Suga began writing music at the age of 13 and joined Big Hit Entertainment in 2010. He debuted with BTS in 2013 and soon emerged as a leading creative force in the group. Known for his introspective lyrics and emotional storytelling, Suga has written and produced over 160 songs, including many under his solo alias Agust D. Music remains the cornerstone. As part of BTS and through his solo albums 'Agust D', 'D-2', and 'D-Day', as well as a successful world tour, Suga has generated substantial revenue from album sales, streaming, and concerts. He also earns copyright royalties through his membership with the Korea Music Copyright Association, further securing his long-term financial position. Brand deals have become a significant contributor. Suga has been appointed a global ambassador for Valentino, leading its Maison Valentino Essentials campaign. He also partnered with the NBA as a global ambassador, tapping into his long-time passion for basketball. Suga's collaborations with artists such as PSY, IU, and Halsey have broadened his international appeal and brought in additional revenue. His taste for luxury is evident. He owns a Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy SUV, and his Seoul apartment in UN Village, one of the city's most exclusive neighbourhoods, is valued at approximately $3 million. The gated community is often dubbed 'Seoul's Beverly Hills' and houses several Korean celebrities. Suga is also known for his luxury watch collection, which includes a Rolex Datejust 36 worth $10,000 and an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding priced around $17,750. His sneaker collection, featuring limited edition Air Jordans and collaborations with Travis Scott, adds flair to his public image, especially during NBA appearances. Though his journey has not been without controversy—most notably a drink-driving incident in 2024 and a previous issue over music sampling—Suga's public apologies and continued fan support have sustained his standing. With his military service nearing completion, all eyes are on what the multitalented artist will do next. He recently took a break from his social service and attended his fellow band-member J-Hope's 'Hope on the Stage' concert. Whether returning with BTS or exploring further solo ventures, Suga's wealth, work ethic, and cultural influence put him firmly in the league of global music elites.

BTS set for full-group comeback in March 2026: Report
BTS is expected to make a full-group comeback in March 2026, according to an exclusive report by The Korea Herald. Multiple industry insiders confirmed that all seven members of the global K-pop sensation are preparing to reunite after completing their mandatory 18-month military service. Suga, the final member currently enlisted, has been discharged today, June 21(Saturday). His return has marked the completion of service for the entire group, fuelling anticipation about their next steps. 'BTS' comeback date is set for March next year,' a Hybe official confirmed through The Korea Herald's source. Two additional overseas sources echoed the statement, confirming that the group is working toward resuming group activities early next year. Another source revealed that BTS is expected to return in mid-March, possibly around the same time as their labelmates Tomorrow X Together (TXT). 'While the exact date is unknown, I think it will be mid-March. I heard BTS is returning in the same month as their brother group Tomorrow X Together,' the source said. 'It could be BTS first, then TXT — or the other way around.' Meanwhile, Enhypen, another Hybe-affiliated group under Belift Lab, had reportedly planned their comeback for March but moved it to January to avoid overlapping with BTS. At a shareholder meeting earlier this year, Hybe CEO Lee Jae-sang stated, 'We're preparing alongside top-tier producers, but the artists also need time to reflect and prepare.' This suggests that while planning is in motion, the group's return will not be rushed. Jin is set to begin his solo fan concert tour 'Runseokjin_EP.Tour' from June 28 in Goyang, with 18 shows scheduled across Asia, the US, and Europe until August 10 . Given these commitments, a group comeback in 2025 appears unlikely. Despite mounting excitement, Big Hit Music has stated that BTS' comeback schedule has 'yet to be finalised.' However, industry watchers suggest the possibility of a pre-release single or project ahead of the full comeback.
