Presenting pH-1, the latest guest on Vogue Hong Kong’s “My Fab 5” series! Known for his exceptional musical talents, he has built a legion of fans worldwide and in Korea’s hip-hop scene, becoming one of the most sought-after artists of his generation. PH-1 shares his five must-have summer essentials and what a “Different Summer” means to him.

Tudor Black Bay 58

This is the wristwatch I got most recently – a Tudor Brand Black Bay 58. Although I have around nine to ten wristwatches in my collection, this is my first Diver watch. Initially, I was thinking about getting this or a Rolex Submariner, but since I already have a Rolex, I got the Tudor and I love it. John Mayer is a huge Watch nerd, so watching his interviews and videos about his watch collection got me inspired to start my own little humble collection.

Louis Vuitton Imagination Fragrance

This Cologne is by Louis Vuitton, called Imagination. I wear this about every day, and nine times out of ten I’m asked what cologne I’m wearing. I almost didn’t want to bring it because I didn’t want to share my secret fragrance, but here you go! I usually go for something that is not too masculine, such as woody scents, but I also don’t really like floral, pretty aromas, so Imagination is right in between – it’s quite a sophisticated fragrance.

Fujifilm X100V

This is my digital camera, the Fujifilm X100V. I bring this camera whenever I travel outside of Korea, so that I can capture the city, people, food, and everything that I do. I’ve been posting a lot of the photos I took during my world tour on my Instagram. On the camera, there’s a filter installed called Eterna Cinema which makes all the photos you take look like a scene from a movie. 

Somewhere I have never been is Italy, and I know that it’s beautiful during this time of the year. Please book me a show in Italy so I can go (laughs) – so I have a reason to go.

Mopez Bikes

This is the key to my electric bike. I couldn’t bring the bike with me (laughs) as it’s too big and heavy. Usually, I’ll ride to places that are nearby – destinations that are too close that it would be inconvenient to use a car. During the summer, I like to ride along the Han River – it’s beautiful. Whenever I have something on my mind, maybe too stressed out, I just listen to music and ride. The keychain I use is from HUMAN MADE, which I like because it’s cute, and I like cute things!

Oakley Eye Jacket Redux

My go-to shades are the Eye Jacket Redux by Oakley. I don’t know if these will suit everyone, but I think they look good on me (laughs). These are very light and casual. They’re quite cool and fit my style, especially with my beanie and other hats that I like to wear.  Whenever I ride my electric bike, I wear these glasses.
