In his recent airport photos, James is wearing his hair down—shorter in length and softer in vibes than before.

• “I usually prefer the slicked back look, but in this case, I like his hair down.”
• “Wooow.”
• “Whoa, I love this! He looks so good with his hair down.”
• “Good.”
• “He’s so good-looking that it doesn’t matter whether he wears his hair up or down.”
• “I’m Team Slickback too, but he looks better with his hair down. I would’ve assumed him to be buff, but he’s so slim. Probably because that’s what’s expected of K-Pop idols…”
• “He’s so good at dancing.”
• “So handsome!”
• “Wow, the new hairstyle is insane. Such a pretty boy now.”
• “It’s giving web novel cover illustration. LOL.”
• “I like both.”
• “He looks good in both styles. I think, with a different way of styling, his longer, slicked-back look could have been better, too. He’s just gorgeous in general.”
• “He reminds me of Twilight‘s Edward.”

James isn’t the only CORTIS member to charm the internet as of late.
