ILLIT Minju Achieves Visual Upgrade After Changing THIS

ILLIT member Minju changed one thing about her, and it’s earning love from Korean netizens.

On June 29, 2024, a post titled “ILLIT’s Minju changed her hair” was posted to Instiz, a popular online community forum from South Korea.

In the post, the original author shared several photos of Minju from June 28. Previously, the girl group was seen at Gimpo Airport to attend their schedules in Japan.

To people’s surprise, Minju made one big change: she dyed her hair blonde! Previously, as a contestant on “R U NEXT?” and with her debut with ILLIT, Minju has maintained long, black hair. This change is being warmly received by Korean netizens.

Many are saying that she suits blonde well, noting that the color is not easy to pull off, and yet she does so easily. People gushed over how pretty the idol looked, praising her for her upgraded visuals.

Others theorized that she bleached her hair to dye it another color. They wondered if she was going for a bright color, noting tones like pink would likely suit her flower girl visuals.

Of course, some claimed they preferred her with black hair. However, the resounding majority stated that they love this new look on Minju!

Minju is not the only ILLIT member to have dyed her hair. Iroha also went blonde, and Yunah’s hair is brown at the moment.

Some comments read,
