One of the most classic and stylish images for any male idols -be it in Hollywood or in K-Pop- is nonetheless a case of the classic suit and tie.

Suit up! The smart-looking suit ensemble proves its reign as a popular choice for many idols groups. It is often worn in the classic black-and-white monochrome palette, but colored suits have also expanded greatly into mainstream music industries to add that extra color and punch in the “suit and tie” trend.

However, this article explores the undisputed charm of the monochrome ensemble, which is especially befitting of the slender male figures in K-Pop.

Just last month, Super Junior M (the Chinese sub-group of Super Junior) came back with highly anticipated title track “Swing”. The style concept for their comeback followed the evergreen trend of the classic black-and-white suit and tie ensemble. All members looked sleek and chic with the well-tailored blazers, exuding with manliness yet tinged with a kind of boyish charm.

Also, who could ever forget SJ in their crowning glory back in the days with “Sorry, Sorry” being pioneers of the suit fashion, practically setting the trend in motion. Most definitely, having 13 members certainly emphasized on the beauty of handsome men in handsome suits.

It is hard to find any K-Idol who has not, in fact donned the classic suit before in their career. The K-pop industry, not unlike others, continue to dress their idols in the dapper monochrome ensemble, making sure to portray that gentlemanly image which almost certainly can make any fan weak at their knees.

As much as the monochrome suit is well celebrated in style and fashion, we also cannot forget the colorful ones riding on the K-Fashion wave. Colors signify many different things – fun, youth and energy just being a few of them.

As such, the colored suits may be even more apt in summing up the power of K-Pop for quite some time now – Energetic, fresh and most definitely bursting with potential.
