This report is a response to the previous uproar that was created following Song Ji Hyo’s haircut reveal. Throughout her career, the actress has always sported a long and simple hairstyle, which became her trademark look. This may have added onto the overall shock, but whatever the reason may be, her fans did not react positively to her change.
