BTS‘s Jimin has always captured fans’ hearts with his music and style, but recently, it’s his tattoos that are drawing significant attention. Tattoo artist Dong Hwa from Blind Studio took to social media to share a series of shirtless photos of Jimin, showcasing the intricate tattoos that adorn his body, and fans are absolutely thrilled.

The “NEVERMIND” tattoo, prominently inked on his ribs, is perhaps one of Jimin‘s most famous pieces. Originally a temporary design, Jimin later decided to make it a permanent one. This tattoo, along with others, was revealed in the shirtless photos that have now gone viral, highlighting not only the art but also Jimin‘s chiseled physique.

Jimin’s other tattoos

Among the other tattoos he has is the number ’13’ on the inside of his wrist. Fans speculate that it could represent BTS‘s debut date or Jimin‘s birthday. Additionally, he has moons on his back. They were first seen during the promotions for his solo album FACE. In 2022, Jimin revealed that these tattoos were inspired by a piece of fan art by digital illustrator @ArizzoStudios on X (formerly known as Twitter). It was his bandmate Kim Taehyung, aka V, who showed the fan art to him.

Jimin’s other tattoos include the words “Young” and “Forever” near his elbows, echoing the BTS track “Young Forever,” and the word “Youth” inscribed in cursive behind his ear. Jimin also has the number seven tattooed on his finger, which symbolizes the BTS members’ unity. He once said, “Like I told you guys before, I wanted it here so that you’d be able to see it when I hold the mic when I sing, but because my hands are really small, you can’t really see it. you have to use a thinner mic to see it.”

The tattoo artist speaks

Dong Hwa, in sharing these photos, also shared his long-time connection with BTS, expressing his admiration for their passion and hard work. “After much contemplation, I’ve decided to post this. I regard them as cool musicians who have shown passion and perseverance for nearly a decade. I’ve known them since before their debut, and while I’ve worked on various projects with the company and the members, unfortunately, we haven’t been able to meet often due to their busy schedules. There were both big and small concerns I had while working with them, but my support has always been unwavering. Among the many projects I’ve been involved with, I’m sharing the tattoo photos we did with Jimin first. Please view them in a positive light.”

In addition to the tattoo reveal, Jimin has also been stirring excitement with a new dance video on Instagram, sporting impressive blonde hair and hinting at potential new projects. Fans are eager to see what “main dancer Jimin” has in store next. – K-Pop News Writer

ENHYPEN Shares Skincare Favorites From Dr. Jart+

ENHYPEN recently became ambassadors for the renowned Korean brand Dr. Jart+. As the new faces—pun intended—of high-quality skincare, the members understand the importance of making a good first impression. That’s why they try to look their best whether they’re on tour or topping charts worldwide. Effective skincare products help them achieve this.

“I believe it plays a significant role, which is why I prioritize staying well-hydrated and sticking to a thorough cleansing routine,” Jay replies when asked what role such products play in their careers as K-pop idols. “Good skincare and maintaining healthy skin are just as important as achieving a flawless makeup look.”

“I work up quite a sweat during intense performances at our concerts, so I often apply thick makeup to look my best on stage,” Ni-ki explains. “Given this, I pay special attention to my cleansing routine to ensure that my skin is fresh and clean at the end of the day.”

Together with their fellow members Jungwon, Heeseung, Jake, Sunghoon, and Sunoo, both boys will star in the “Supercharged Repair, Cicapair” campaign. The Dr. Jart+ products with ENHYPEN were made available in South Korea this month. They’re set to roll out in the United States and Europe in 2024. Until then, fans can check out the members’ personal picks below.

ENHYPEN uses these products daily

This rich moisturizer helps to soothe and calm sensitive skin, while keeping it hydrated. Reviewers say the medium-weight cream “reduced the appearance of redness overnight,” while helping to calm irritation. As Sunghoon explains, “Due to our job, we wear a lot of makeup and do activities that irritate our skin. After applying the Cicapair cream, I could feel the soothing effects.”

Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment

Dr. Jart+

If you’re prone to redness, whether from inflamed skin or acne, this Dr. Jart+ cream could be your solution. It uses a greenish-beige tint and velvety texture to counteract visible redness and includes mineral SPF. Ni-ki is a fan, saying, “it provides perfect coverage.”

My favorite product has to be the Dermask that I started using during childhood. I liked that it gave me the impression it’s good for my skin and I think my skin is in great condition today because I’ve been loyal to Dr.Jart+ products since I was young.”

The members of ENHYPEN hope their picks will resonate with fans globally. “It is such an honor to work with a brand that deals with high-quality skincare products,” Heeseung shares. “I hope our fans around can be more familiar with Dr. Jart+.” – K-Pop News Writer

SM Entertainment Warns Fans of Clothing Brand That Uses NCT Dream for Events Without Their Consent

SM Entertainment has alerted fans regarding a clothing brand’s unauthorized use of NCT DREAM for their upcoming events. 

On Monday, October 30, SM Entertainment released a statement to detail what prompted their agency to terminate their partnership with TEDDY ISLAND, a clothing brand that NCT DREAM previously modeled for. 

According to the label, the brand hadn’t met its financial obligations related to the modeling fees accrued during the past year despite the agency’s repeated payment requests. As a means to protect their artists’ rights, the company ultimately decided to end the partnership.

But what raised even more concern for the agency was TEDDY ISLAND’s continued unauthorized use of NCT DREAM in their advertising activities. 

Despite using the NCT DREAM’s portraits without proper compensation, SM Entertainment revealed that the brand took things a step further by unilaterally announcing a fan sign event in May 2023 without prior consultation with  their agency. 

NCT DREAM as TEDDY ISLAND ambassadors

In their statement, SM Entertainment shared that their advertising model contract with TEDDY ISLAND began in 2022. It was also then when NCT DREAM filmed advertising content for the brand. However, the brand didn’t fulfill their financial obligations for the group. 

https://twitter.com/teddyisland_twt/status/1626144360562675717

In response, the label said that they requested the clothing brand to immediately cease using their artists’ images. In June 2023, SM Entertainment shared that they officially notified TEDDY ISLAND of the termination of the advertising model contract. 

Regardless, the brand, according to SM Entertainment, continued to utilize NCT DREAM’s images without permission and remitted only a portion of the model appearance fees after the contract was terminated. Furthermore, TEDDY ISLAND allegedly attempted to shift the blame onto SM Entertainment, claiming that the entertainment company had breached the contract.

https://twitter.com/teddyisland_twt/status/1613098441437229056

Moreover, the situation escalated when TEDDY ISLAND announced a pre-order event featuring photo cards and merchandise bearing the NCT DREAM’s names and images without any prior discussion with SM Entertainment. Which prompted the agency to make a counter statement on October 18, 2023, to prevent any further harm to their artists and fans.

Additionally, the agency noted that they exerted efforts to resolve the matter amicably. As such they shared that they even presented multiple proposals to TEDDY ISLAND so that the canceled fan sign event can resume. However, the agency said that the brand continued to make unreasonable demands and shifted the responsibility for the dispute onto the label. 

With this, SM Entertainment decided that no further negotiations will be feasible. In turn, they strongly advised fans to exercise caution in terms of supporting this clothing brand.

ENHYPEN Talks Fashion with Women’s Wear Daily

The ENHYPEN members—Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo, and Ni-ki—are on a roll. Not only did they become the fastest K-pop boy group to cross the 1 billion streams mark, but they were also named brand ambassadors for Prada earlier this year.

During a recent trip to Los Angeles, they sat down with Women’s Wear Daily to talk about their fashion journey. When asked about their experience at Milan Fashion Week, Jay said, “It was our second Prada show, but the first women’s show we’ve been to. We were curious about it and after the show, too, there were a lot of things to experience, like exhibitions.” Sunghoon added, “We were able to have some free time while we were there, so we got to enjoy ourselves. And at the show, we saw many actors and fellow artists, so it was really fun.”

At fashion events, the ENHYPEN members find a unique blend of fan interactions and style inspo. Jake reminisced about their European visits, saying, “We’ve now been to two in Europe, and we don’t normally have much opportunity to see our fans in Europe. Being able to see them after so long is really memorable. They welcomed us so warmly in Milan.” For his part, Heeseung loved the immersive experience of attending fashion shows in person. “I think the best thing is just the fact that we get to attend these fashion shows. It’s so different when you’re there in person compared to just watching a video. You can really feel what the designer is trying to convey,” he said.

The ENHYPEN members’ styles

For ENHYPEN, fashion is a form of expression. Each member has a distinct style that sets them apart. While Sunoo prefers to keep it simple, Sunghoon leans towards a more embellished look with plenty of accessories. Ni-ki‘s style is hip with a touch of vintage, and Jungwon is known for his love of oversized clothing. Jay, on the other hand, shared, “There are a lot of things I like, but recently I’ve been into retro and newtro… Like ’70s and ’80s styles. Rockstuds, things like that.”

They know that fashion and K-pop are inextricably linked. Jake said, “Being on stage and showing yourself is a major element of K-pop, so we put a lot of thought into fashion and what we wear. And I think the public also keeps a close eye on the fashion and visual aspects.” Heeseung added, “That and it’s also a big part of how we portray ourselves. A certain outfit can make you look a certain way, according to the style. Because we’re able to change that based on how we want to be perceived, I think it’s a really important part of being an idol.”

A lot of effort goes into curating looks that align with the theme of their music. Sunoo said, “For DARK BLOOD, we had outfits that are similar to what vampires wear, like suits. In the music video, we had pearl vests, and we tried a lot of new things. Things that had a vampire vibe to it.” Jungwon elaborated, “We had an artisan create the clothes custom for us. I think the fans may have been intrigued by the outfits at first, but we were so proud of them. It was heavy but we loved it.”

Stylish and talented

Their ongoing U.S. tour is another testament to their global appeal. The tour began in Los Angeles, where they mesmerized fans with their performances. Sunghoon expressed his excitement, saying, “Doing a show in a stadium in L.A., it felt really different. I think the ENGENEs really enjoyed themselves too, so we were also extra excited. It gave us strength. It was so fun on stage.” The members also shared their favorite songs from the setlist, with Sunoo choosing “Karma” and Jay picking “Blockbuster.”

When WWD asked about their favorite tour outfits, Ni-ki shared, “The encore outfits. I think compared to the other outfits—the other outfits were created by our label to match the songs, but for the encore, I requested the style that I wanted, baggy jeans and a shirt. I was glad I was able to wear that. It was my favorite.” Sunghoon, sounding a bit surprised, responded, “I think only Ni-ki requested. I didn’t know we could do that.” He also mentioned that they updated the encore outfits for the U.S. tour. Jungwon added that they change those outfits for each tour leg. Ni-ki then pointed out that similar changes are made to the merchandise as well.

The WWD interview proved that the ENHYPEN members aren’t just talented, they’re stylish too. – K-Pop News Writer

K-pop girl group LE SSERAFIM is about to make waves in the fashion industry as luxury house Louis Vuitton tapped them as their newest brand ambassador. 

On Friday, October 13, the brand unveiled a new campaign featuring all five LE SSERAFIM members: Kim Chaewon, Hong Eunchae, Sakura, Kazuha, and Huh Yunjin. 

In the debut campaign video, the quintet are seen flaunting the brand’s latest capsule collection while walking across the iconic bridge of the Hangang River. 

Aside from the short fashion film, Louis Vuitton also released individual and group photos of the group. 

According to L’Officiel, the capsule collection that the LE SSERAFIM members are modeling features exclusive redesigns of iconic Louis Vuitton pieces. 

Additionally, the collection will reportedly have a total of 16 bags that are exclusive to South Korea. Meanwhile, another eight designs will be rolled out worldwide to a later date. 

Prior to being named brand ambassador, LE SSERAFIM previously performed at Louis Vuitton’s Pre-Fall 2023 after-party show in April. 

In a press release, Nicolas Ghesquière, artistic director of women’s collection at Louis Vuitton, expressed his excitement in having the group onboard. 

“We met for the first time at my pre-fall show in Seoul and I really loved the energy they brought to the after party with their performance. They each have such a unique style that together feels very cool and authentic,” he said, 

Fans’ happiness for LE SSERAFIM 

Following the news, FEARNOTs couldn’t help but congratulate “Anti-Fragile” singers for the achievement. 

Since all of LE SSERAFIM were tapped as ambassadors, they became the first K-pop girl group to be tapped by Louis Vuitton. And the second overall, as they will be following in the footsteps of their HYBE Labels seniors BTS. To recall, all members of BTS served as Louis Vuitton ambassadors from 2021 to 2022. 

For their fans, the milestone is even more commendable as the group achieved it within a year and a half since their debut. Initially a six-member group, LE SSERAFIM made their debut under Source Music in May 2022. In July 2022, Kim Garam left the group. 

Given this recent development, LE SSERAFIM is joining the likes of other K-pop idols who are also under Louis Vuitton. Among in the list are Stray Kids’ Felix, BTS’ j-hope, Jackson Wang, and NewJeans’ Hyein. 

As for other K-pop idols serving as ambassadors for fashion brands, the list includes BTS’ V for Cartier, TWICE’s Dahyun for Michael Kors, TWICE’s Sana for Prada, SEVENTEEN’s DK for Bally.

Dior Men Names BTS’ Jimin the Face of Its Spring 2024 Campaign

BTS member and Dior global ambassador Jimin is set to dazzle as the face of Dior Men’s Spring 2024 campaign. This is a significant milestone for the South Korean superstar, as it’s his first campaign since he became the global ambassador for the French luxury brand last January. Soon after the big reveal, Jimin graced the cover of L’Officiel Hommes Malaysia, where the interviewer likened his ambassadorship to an invite to the White House. 

Jimin responded by thanking the brand for the opportunity. “I feel very grateful and blessed to have become an ambassador for a prestigious global brand. I hope I can take this opportunity to learn more about fashion and contribute something to Dior,” he said at the time.

Last September, Jimin appeared at the Lady Dior Celebration Exhibition in Seoul. He turned heads in a beige, knee-length trench coat, a crisp white full-sleeve shirt, and grey trousers. Finally, a cool silver statement necklace added a sparkly touch to his ensemble. His regal bearing prompted the fans to call him a Disney prince. 

Dior Men’s Spring 2024 campaign

Alasdair McLellan photographed the Spring 2024 campaign. Some of the photos are striking black-and-white shots in which Jimin wears preppy sweaters, streamlined suits, and zippered shirts. Other images, in color, capture him posing in a lush forest. In those photos, he donned one of two fits: a light blue twisted turtleneck sweater paired with a backpack in the house’s iconic motif, or a navy suit adorned with brooches evoking ceremonial insignia with Dior emblems.

Dior Men’s artistic director, Kim Jones, recalled his early interactions with the BTS member. “I’ve seen the rise and rise of [Jimin]. He has an amazing style and character; that’s why I wanted to have him for the campaign.” Jones’ admiration for Jimin and his style isn’t isolated. BTS‘ working relationship with Dior goes back to 2019 when Jones designed stage outfits for their Love Yourself: Speak Yourself world tour.

The much-anticipated Dior Men ad campaign featuring Jimin will debut in print this Tuesday. Ronnie Cooke Newhouse art-directed the campaign, Ellie Grace Cumming styled it, Dior’s creative and image director Peter Philips handled the makeup, and Benjamin Muller did the hair. – K-Pop News Writer

“In front of all these people, my dream has come true. I want to become a good artist. So, I can have a good influence on people,” he continued. 

Following the announcement of his participation in Paris Fashion Week, fans quickly reposted the old video and shared their happiness for The8. 

Even the K-pop idol himself couldn’t help but share his excitement for it. “I’m finally going to see the Paris Fashion Show tomorrow. I’ll see and share lots of pretty things,” he told fans. 

After attending the events of both brands, The8 also held a Weverse live to talk with his fans about the experience. Since seeing a fashion show in Paris has been one of his longtime dreams, the artist said that it’s an “honor” to finally make it happen. Additionally, he said that the fans who personally showed support for him in the shows made it more fun and memorable.

LE SSERAFIM Leader Kim Chaewon Shares Beauty Secrets

Kim Chaewon, the leader of LE SSERAFIM, is renowned for her versatility. Not only can she sing anything with her golden set of pipes, but her beauty is as versatile as her vocals. She can switch between bold, blushy styles and delicate, fairy-like aesthetics at a moment’s notice. One of her standout looks was the one she sported for her “ANTIFRAGILE” fancam, characterized by sparkling eyes, faded lips, and a radiant blush.

A significant aspect of this look is the emphasis on her “aegyo-sal”—the puffy under-eye area that adds a youthful charm. To achieve this, Chaewon starts by applying blush to that area as well as her cheeks. According to her, it’s important to pick the right blush that will accent the area and add to your look. Personally, she favors peach or pink.

She then highlights the most prominent part of her aegyo-sal using a shimmering eyeshadow stick, though a regular shimmering eyeshadow with a small brush works just as well. Setting it with a sparkling loose eyeshadow powder completes the look.

In a video interview posted to W Korea’s YouTube channel, Chaewon shared her secret to flawless makeup and skin. “Hello, W subscribers! I’m Kim Chaewon. How to achieve my signature aegyo-sal? Well, my aegyo-sal makeup emphasizes the under-eye area with a sparkling touch. By using Make Up For Ever Aqua Resist Smoky Shadow #10 and finishing with Star Lit Diamond Powder #111, you can complete my signature look,” she began.

LESSERAFIM Chaewon’s Charm-Filled Self-Makeup Sweet Tips

What Chaewon does to stay beautiful

When asked about her off-day makeup routine, she mentioned preferring a natural look with a hint of color, given the elaborate stage makeup she often wears. She also emphasized the importance of developing a skincare routine.

“Like everyone else, I take cleansing very seriously. I’m quite obsessed with hydration. I moisturize day and night, so my focus is on moisturizing. Also, no matter where I go, I always carry two items with me. First, my go-to item is the HD SKIN Cushion. It adheres naturally and offers good coverage. Voilà! I even applied it now. The second item is the Make Up For Ever UHD Pressed Powder. I always finish with this powder. After using it, you can see that the skin texture looks very clean and refined. It enhances the appearance of my skin. I’m currently using this powder as well.”

Chaewon also touched upon her workout routine. “I often engage in bodyweight exercises. Lately, I’ve been focusing more on bodyweight exercises than on lifting weights or using equipment to prevent injuries. But did you know? Bodyweight exercises are genuinely challenging. I’m diligently practicing them,” she shared. “I have a workout routine, but if I were to detail everything, it might take all night. The exercises I do most frequently and enjoy the most are planks and side planks. I also incorporate burpees. When I feel I’ve overindulged on a particular day, I tend to do a lot of burpees.” 

All of that helps this talented idol stay beautiful. For more from Chaewon and the record-breaking girl group she leads, keep an eye on W Korea’s social media. – K-Pop News Writer

BLACKPINK Jennie Attends Balenciaga Afterparty in Paris

BLACKPINK’s Jennie recently found herself at the center of intrigue when fans spotted her at a designer brand event in Paris, a brand she isn’t officially affiliated with. Known for her status as an ambassador for prestigious brands like Calvin Klein and Chanel, it was a surprising sight for netizens to see Jennie allegedly attending a Balenciaga afterparty in the City of Lights.

BLACKPINK’s Jennie Makes an Appearance At Balenciaga Afterparty

Jennie’s presence in Paris was associated with Fashion Week, where she appeared to be thoroughly enjoying her time. She even attended fellow BLACKPINK member Lisa’s electrifying Crazy Horse performance. On October 2, photos surfaced, leaving BLINKs buzzing with speculation. Though the snapshots were not crystal clear, many keen-eyed fans identified Jennie by her distinctive hairstyle and outfit.

Further confirmation seemed to emerge when BLINKs traced the original source of the photos, which indicated that indeed Jennie had graced the Balenciaga afterparty following the brand’s October 1 show.

The surprise of Jennie’s attendance at the event prompted widespread curiosity, especially given her existing affiliations with various designer labels. However, astute observers began to connect the dots. Notably, Jennie’s circle of friends, including Haze, Fai Khadra (who had a noteworthy model debut), and Rachel Senott, were also present. This led fans to deduce that Jennie was there, not as a brand ambassador, but as a loyal friend and supporter.

While the idea of Jennie collaborating with Balenciaga would undoubtedly excite many, it appears that her motive was simply to stand by her friends. It’s a testament to Jennie’s genuine and steadfast character, where she consistently finds ways to lend her support to those close to her. BLINKs, the dedicated fans of BLACKPINK, continue to admire Jennie not only for her fashion-forward style but also for her unwavering loyalty to her friends in the fashion world.
