Felix Struts His Stuff on the Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2024 Runway

Felix

When Stray Kids’ Felix participated in Louis Vuitton’s Paris Fashion Week show, he marked his official debut in the high fashion world. The event showcased the luxury brand’s ready-to-wear fall 2024 line and saw Felix don a distinctive ensemble. The K-pop idol wore furry white gloves, sleek white and silver pants, and a textured white turtleneck. He carried a gray handbag in one hand as he strutted down the runway. His blonde hair was a frosty shade of platinum, which matched the icy vibe of his outfit.

The show celebrated Nicolas Ghesquière’s tenth anniversary as the artistic director of women’s collections at Louis Vuitton. According to WWD, the “collection, while not exactly a greatest hits compilation, could be read as a distillation of his work at the house. There were futuristic takes on sportswear, like a graphic two-tone windbreaker with a curved zipper, or a silver flight suit with scarification marks.”

Meanwhile, Nicole Phelps of Vogue wrote, “The jackets heavily embroidered with metallic threads and embellished with cabochon stones recalled the frock coats of the Louis XVI collection for spring 2018 he presented in the medieval part of the Louvre. Sparkling skirts that bubbled below the knees seemed to be a callback to spring 2021, a pandemic-time show he staged without an audience. And the swirling asymmetric hems of the spectacular fringy evening numbers evoked the deconstructed scuba-suit dresses from his resort 2017 show in Rio.”

There were plenty of K-pop stars in the audience, including BLACKPINK’s Lisa, NewJeans’ Hyein, and TWICE’s Nayeon. Hollywood celebrities Ana de Armas, Chloë Grace Moretz, and Sophie Turner were also seen checking out the brand’s offerings.

Fashionable Felix

During a recent live broadcast on Instagram, Felix shared some behind-the-scenes tidbits from the show. “Nicholas prepared two large bouquets of flowers, and they were white. He prepared them for me before the show. He sent them to my waiting room, so I took a photo of them. It was sweet of him to send flowers, because in a sense it showed that he cared. He really wanted to cheer me on before the show.”

Felix also gave a shout-out to Squid Game star Jung Hoyeon, who opened the show and joined him onstage for the finale. “On the runway, Hoyeon–nim took really good care of me and taught me quite a lot. I’m thankful to Hoyeon–nim for teaching me how to walk on the runway. I received feedback and tips on how to do it, which was quite helpful.”

Felix’s relationship with Louis Vuitton began in August 2023 when he was announced as a house ambassador. Ghesquière praised Felix for his “unique personality” and “audacious sense of style.” Prior to his Paris Fashion Week appearance, he attended Ghesquière’s 2024 cruise show for Vuitton. Ghesquière also styled Felix for the Lollapalooza music festival in Paris.

Fashionable Felix wasn’t the only member of Stray Kids who participated in fashion-related events last month. I.N. went to the Alexander McQueen show while Seungmin attended a Loewe event. Finally, Hyunjin was seen at the Versace show in Milan, where he posed for photos with actress Anne Hathaway. – K-Pop News Writer

BTS’s Jungkook Named Billboard’s Best K-Pop Artist

Billboard has officially declared BTS’s Jungkook as the best K-pop artist of 2024 in its inaugural ranking of the top 100 K-pop stars. The media outler made the announcement to mark the upcoming launch of Billboard Korea in May.

The 2024 Billboard K-Pop Artist 100 marks the first time the US magazine has ranked K-pop artists. The rankings were assembled by the chart teams at Billboard and its Seoul branch, Billboard Korea, which is set to publish its first issue in June. These rankings drew from artists’ activities across the Billboard 200 albums chart, Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, and Billboard Boxscore. The Boxscore tracks tour attendance and revenue, covering the period from January 7, 2023, to December 30, 2023.

Group members were generally listed together unless notable solo activities warranted individual recognition. That’s what happened with Jungkook. This year’s rankings included members from 16 groups: (G)I-DLE, aespa, ATEEZ, BLACKPINK, BTS, ENHYPEN, FIFTY FIFTY, ITZY, LE SSERAFIM, NCT 127, NCT Dream, NewJeans, SEVENTEEN, Stray Kids, TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT), and TWICE.

How did Jungkook take the top spot?

Jungkook’s rise to the top of Billboard’s ranking followed the success of his first solo single “Seven (feat. Latto)” and the album GOLDEN, both released in 2023. “Seven (feat. Latto)” debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It remained at the top of the Billboard Global 200 for seven weeks, was hailed as the No. 1 Global Song of the Summer, and snagged the Top Global K-Pop Song at the Billboard Music Awards. Furthermore, Jungkook’s musical prowess was evident in his hit Hot 100 collaborations. These included the top-five hit “3D (feat. Jack Harlow),” which received a remix from Justin Timberlake, and “Too Much” with The Kid LAROI and Central Cee.

GOLDEN further cemented his status by debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. It set a record for the largest sales week ever for a K-pop solo act with 210,200 equivalent-unit albums for the chart week dated November 18, 2023. His track “Standing Next to You” is on track to become his longest-running Hot 100 hit, having spent 16 consecutive weeks on the tally thus far. These accomplishments put Jungkook at the top of a list that evaluates activity on the Billboard 200, Hot 100, and Billboard Boxscore touring data over the past year.

Who else is on the list?

Second on the list is Stray Kids’ leader, Bang Chan, followed by Lee Know in third place. The rest of Stray Kids’ members—Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin, and I.N—also made the top 10, in that order. This indicates a strong showing by the group in Billboard’s rankings. Girl group FIFTY FIFTY, which only has one remaining original member, Keena, secured the No. 10 spot.

In anticipation of its May launch, Billboard Korea plans to host a kick-off event in Seoul. This event will celebrate the K-pop artists featured on the 2024 list as guests of honor. It’ll further highlight the global influence of K-pop and its artists. – K-Pop News Writer

Stray Kids’ Hyunjin Is Milan Fashion Week’s Top Influencer

On February 29, 2024, Stray Kids’ Hyunjin made headlines by securing the top spot on the Most Visible Influencers by Estimated Media Value (EMV) list during Milan Fashion Week. Remarkably, he achieved this significant digital milestone with just one Instagram post. 

This feat was highlighted by Lefty, an influencer marketing platform known for optimizing strategy and automating workflows. STAYs were thrilled, because the other celebrities on the list engaged with their brands through multiple posts, ranging from two to 25 times.

As a global brand ambassador for Versace, Hyunjin’s presence brought significant attention to the luxury brand. According to Lefty, the week ended with a total EMV of 149 million USD. Versace’s global brand ambassador emerged as the event’s most influential figure, with that one post from Hyunjin generating an astounding 4.02 million USD in EMV and an impressive 37.4% engagement rate. These numbers underscore the K-pop idol’s unparalleled influence and proves that Versace did the right thing by partnering with him.

Hyunjin is making waves in fashion

Versace itself reaped substantial benefits from this partnership, becoming the top brand of Milan Fashion Week with an EMV of 19.9 million USD. This success was largely due to its association with Hyunjin. His role as Versace’s global brand ambassador, starting on July 20, 2023, was historic. He became the first K-pop industry icon to represent the Italian luxury brand in such a capacity.

Meanwhile, as Hyunjin makes waves in fashion, his group, Stray Kids, continues to do so in music. They laid out all their plans for the year, including their fourth fan meeting, through their STEP OUT 2024 video. They’re also set to perform at Italy’s I-Days Milano music festival on July 12, 2024. They will perform in front of 80,000 spectators, becoming the first fourth-generation male K-pop act to headline this big event. – K-Pop News Writer

Stray Kids to Open Pop-Up Store in Seoul

Stray Kids is set to launch an enchanting pop-up store and cafe in Seoul featuring their SKZOO characters. According to JYP Entertainment, the Stray Kids x SKZOO Pop-up & Cafe and SKZOO’s Magic School will open their doors from March 14 to March 31. This event will be hosted at two locations: AP Again in Seongdong District and Soundwave in Mapo District. Fans and the general public can check both out to immerse themselves in the magical world of SKZOO.

This event will complement the band’s magician-themed fan meeting. SKZ’s Magic School is scheduled from March 29 to 31 at the KSPO Dome. Tickets for this special gathering are available via Yes24. Pre-sales start on March 4 at 8:00 PM for STAY fan club members, and general admission opens on March 6 at 8:00 PM. Fans are encouraged to keep an eye on Stray Kids’ official SNS accounts for more details.

All about SKZOO

In 2020, Stray Kids created animal characters representing each member of the group. These characters have appeared on official merchandise and in animated YouTube videos. (Check out the ones where they dance to Stray Kids hits like “God’s Menu” and “S-Class.”) Each SKZOO character has a lot in common with its human counterpart.

Wolf Chan, for example, shares leader Bang Chan’s leadership qualities and his affinity for the wolf emoji. Lee Know’s character, a rabbit named Leebit, draws inspiration from his bunny-like front teeth and playful nature. Dwaekki, a pig-rabbit hybrid, is a nod to an infamous sculpture Changbin once made. Hyunjin got a ferret as his SKZOO character because he’s tall and long like a ferret. His character’s name, Jiniret, is a combination of his nickname “Jinnie” and the word “ferret.”

Stray Kids “특(S-Class) (SKZOO ver.)” M/V

Han got the character Han Quokka due to his resemblance to a quokka. A quokka is a small marsupial native to southwestern Australia. Quokkas are known for their distinctive round face and perpetual smile, which has earned them the title of the “world’s happiest animal.”

Felix’s character, BbokAri, shares his sunny personality. BbokAri’s name is a combination of Felix’s Korean name, Yongbok, and “병아리” (byeongari), the Korean word for “chick.” Seungmin got PuppyM because he acts like a puppy sometimes, and I.N. got FoxI.NY because he has foxy eyes—or so fans say.

Stray Kids recently won big

In other news, Stray Kids recently won big at the Hanteo Music Awards and the People’s Choice Awards. The latter named them Group of the Year, while the former awarded them Best Performance. Talk about big wins! They’re also set to make history as the first K-pop boy group to headline the BST Hyde Park music festival in London on July 14.

The upcoming SKZOO pop-up store and cafe not only celebrates Stray Kids’ creativity but also offers fans a unique way to connect with the group and their beloved SKZOO characters. – K-Pop News Writer
