Seungho is a noble right? If so, then here's a question.

Why do he and the other noblemen grow long hair yet always keep them neatly tucked in like that? Why does their culture/tradition dictates/tell them to keep their hair like that?

    Sangtu (상투): This was the ordinary hairstyle for the men of the Joseon Dynasty, especially among the noblemen and the scholars. The hair was pulled into a topknot and a headband, manggeon, was used to hold the hair in place. Manggeon was also used to hold the headgears in place. The topknot was a sign of manhood for the men since they would start to wear their hair into a topknot when they got married, as they used to marry at a young age.

    Yeah I understood it was a cultural stuff. What I meant was why must they tuck it in like that? Like why does their tradition dictates them to do so?
