Kang Daniel Magazine Issue Dominates Photo Music Korea Sales

Photo Music Korea (PMK) recently launched a new series that introduces K-pop artists every month. The series kicked off with a special Kang Daniel edition for its July 2023 issue. The magazine cover and inside pages feature unreleased photos of the soloist from a photoshoot he did in Las Vegas for his recent album REALIEZ.

PMK’s Kang Daniel edition quickly became a hit among fans. Pre-orders for the magazine opened on July 12, and it soared to No. 1 on several sales charts, including Aladdin Daily Best, Kyobo Daily Best Sellers, and Yes24 Daily Best. In response to the overwhelming demand, PMK’s editor-in-chief, Kim Young Ik, expressed gratitude to Kang Daniel’s fans by expanding the singer’s spread to 50 pages, longer than originally planned.

The issue features an interview with Kang Daniel by Billboard pop columnist Jeff Benjamin. It also has spreads with other K-pop artists, including BB Girls, MIRAE, NINE.i, Play J, and TEEN TOP. With this issue, Photo Music Korea has initiated a monthly feature called “Jeff’s Corner,” which will introduce K-pop artists to readers.

In other news, Kang Daniel recently concluded promotions for REALIEZ and wrapped up his FIRST PARADE world tour with an encore concert. He was booked for the SUMMER SONIC 2023 festival in Japan and will serve as the MC on Mnet’s Street Woman Fighter 2.

The success of Kang Daniel‘s special edition of PMK is proof of his popularity and the dedication of his fans. It also sets a high bar for future editions of the magazine, which will continue to spotlight K-pop artists every month.
