Min-gyu, a member of the group Seventeen, once again proved his presence as a global fashion icon. According to Pledis Entertainment, a label under HYBE Music Group, Min-gyu recently graced the cover of the January issues of Esquire Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Thailand. In this photo shoot, Min-gyu perfectly showcased the 2026 summer men's collection of a luxury brand, solidifying his status as the brand's ambassador.

Min-gyu revealed his fashionable charm through various outfits, ranging from a special look with a vest and neckband to shirts in romantic colors. Without any special props, he exuded charisma with his free poses and gaze, demonstrating his mastery as a "photo shoot artisan."

In the interview conducted alongside the photo shoot, Min-gyu's unique passion and energy were evident. He spoke about the experience of filming "Tiny Desk" at the NPR headquarters in the United States last November with his members, marking the first time a K-pop group performed there. Min-gyu said, "At first, I was not used to a performance relying only on voice and band sound, but after doing it, it was very fun. I also realized there are many areas where I need to work harder."

Min-gyu expressed his determination, saying, "Someday, I want people to immediately recognize, 'This is Min-gyu's voice,'" raising anticipation for the live party with S.Coups and Min-gyu, which will take place in five cities domestically and internationally. The tour will start from the 23rd to the 25th at Inspire Arena in Incheon, followed by Busan, Aichi, Chiba, and Kaohsiung.

The Incheon concert sold out on the day FC membership pre-sale opened, demonstrating their strong ticket power. Seventeen, which Min-gyu belongs to, recently concluded the "SEVENTEEN WORLD TOUR [NEW_] IN JAPAN" with approximately 420,000 spectators across Japan's four major domes. After a brief break, they will continue their Asia tour in February and March at large stadiums in Hong Kong, Singapore, Bangkok, and Bulacan.

Through this photo shoot and interview, Min-gyu is simultaneously strengthening his capabilities in both fashion and music, continuing various activities to communicate with fans. His position as a fashion icon is expected to expand further. Seventeen is enhancing its influence in the global market through Min-gyu's activities.
