Recently, it was announced that BTS’s Jungkook will be featured on the cover of the 2023 Autumn issue of Dazed UK magazine. Dazed is a British lifestyle magazine that comes out every two months, and it covers a range of things like music, fashion, movies, art, and books. Jungkook is making history as the first K-pop artist to grace the cover of the original Dazed magazine.
In the preview of Jungkook’s magazine cover, he’s seen sitting in a car, holding the steering wheel, and wearing an open jacket with nothing underneath. He’s got a lip piercing and a laid-back expression, giving off a “bad boy” vibe that internet users really liked. Unlike other photoshoots that often edit celebrities’ faces and pictures, Jungkook’s photo shows the real texture of his skin, even revealing a scar from his youth, which many people found endearing.
Korean internet users loved this photo concept and thought it suited Jungkook perfectly. They felt he looked like a Hollywood actor and especially appreciated his natural appearance. Non-Korean internet users shared the same sentiment, considering it one of the best concepts they’ve seen Jungkook take on. The magazine is supposed to come out in October, but it appears to be already sold out.
