Kim Jong-un Haircuts Required for Men in North Korea

If you are a man in North Korea, we sincerely hope you have a round face. It's the shape that will work with your new haircut. That new haircut is reportedly called the "Dear Leader Kim Jong Un," modeled after--you guessed it--North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's impenetrable block of black hair atop his chubby cheeks.
