Vogue Korea July 2022 : G-Dragon by Heejune Kim

The first cover looks like alt version of British Bazaar and it's the only one that works for me. It looks like reimagined Blumarine ads by Tim Walker from late 90s too, so I can somewhat appreciate that aspect but I'm generally not invested in the cover subject so I'm not very intrigued to see more.

at this point I'm bored.

I'm not repulsed to the idea of having recurring cover stars, but AT LEAST add some creativity to it. This is just giving me... Instagram/Album Teaser vibes.

W Korea is far more creative than Vogue Korea. I mean, Vogue Korea doesn't stand out to a point where having a W/Elle/Bazaar Korea cover is equally as important/big deal as having a Vogue Korea cover.

Been reading the magazine, and my observation is that its detached from what's happening around the country. Maybe there's an audience for it.

These covers are so bad, I literally had a hard time choosing the version to buy earlier today.

The pink one looks tacky because of the rose on his mouth; the green one looks decent at first, but I don't like the idea of choosing a cover where strangers are included on the shot (and not in an artistic manner); the blue one looks like an outtake; and the yellow one, though better than the rest, looks like someone's IG photo around 2017.

I expected to see a punk-themed shoot based on the leaked photos last week, but the outcome turned out to be like a saturated version of Tyler Mitchell's editorial.

If you're doing 'crappy', what's the necessity for doing it four times over?
None of this is cover material. They could have zoomed close on the yellow cover to find something, otherwise, start over.

I find these safe. The clothes looks good. For sure there's four for people that want to purchase the entire set, no matter if one is worse or better than the other. Fans always forgive terrible covers and sadly (for Vogue) they buy this magazine just once. Fashion magazines don't appeal to regular readers anymore, only to the fanbase of these cover stars.

Im a sucker for VK, so this time im gonna be silent lol

I didn't notice he's wearing a women's collection (I know, VK wrote Chanel, the letters are huge). Chanel looks well on young guys.

Thanks, Erik. How many pages does this issue have?

It is total 279 pages.

I just received my copy of this issue earlier today. It comes with a mini-poster; a larger version of the exact cover that I bought. Though all of their covers this month are underwhelming online, the one with yellow masthead actually pretty on print.

Their July issue has 280 pages in total - their thinnest issue this year so far, but some editorials inside are gorgeous.

[VogueGirl8910]

The first photo of the main story it's much better for been the cover than the other. That Eden's editorial is amazing, looks like a tribute of Veruschka & Rubartelli's work.
