Mr. Worldwide Handsome is back like he’s never left. BTS’ oldest member Jin was discharged from his mandatory 18-month military stint in June. In the two months that followed, he was named global ambassador of both Maison FRED and Gucci. In between, he represented South Korea as a torchbearer for the Olympics Games in Paris where he carried the flame past the Louvre Museum…No big deal.
Both a member of BTS and a successful solo artist, Jin has released chart-topping singles including “The Astronaut” accompanied by a music video reflective of the star’s style preferences: cosy comfort and sleek suiting.
Comfort comes in the form of relaxed cardigans, ranging from the Maison Mihara Yasuhiro yellow brushed knit cardigan spotted in the MV to the black Prada number for the “BE (Deluxe Edition)” press conference in 2020. Meanwhile, oversized t-shirts are a staple for airports and rehearsals, often paired with baggy bottoms and slides. As for suits, Jin isn’t afraid to be experimental with pattern or fit, donning a tartan Vivienne Westwood set in the MV and an array of slim fits and boxy cuts for events. Ahead, discover some of the singer’s best looks, from the latest Gucci ensembles to Thom Browne suits.
