A bold, stylish look at the global rise of Korean culture and style
in the words and images of those shaping and living it. K-pop,
K-fashion, K-drama, K-beauty: over the last decade, K-style has
exploded onto the global scene. What is behind this phenomenon?
Where does K-Style go from here? Make, Break, Remix: The Rise of
K-Style makes no attempt to define or categorize, instead
celebrating the eclectic, multi-faceted nature of K-Style and its
home city of Seoul. Through interviews with eighteen tastemakers
who are shaping K-style across creative sectors, from 1Million
Studio's Lia Kim to rock band leader Hwang Soyoon, world famous
tattooist Doy to Asia's leading designer Teo Yang, Fiona Bae tells
untold stories from true insiders, exploring a sense of identity in
their work, how living in Seoul affects them and their creative
output, and the decade of changes that has brought about the
current K-style. Interwoven with these texts, five distinct
photo-essays from celebrated photographer less_TAEKYUN KIM (recent
credits including Vogue Korea, GQ Korea, i-D Korea) capture the
vibrant energy of Seoul's streets and the incredible style of its
youth. Contributors such as BLACKPINK songwriter and A&R Danny
Chung, add their own vital perspectives on the scene, while fashion
journalist Sukwoo Hong sits down with brands to watch for his
K-fashion directory such as PAF(Post Archive Faction). Designed by
Hezin O, with a distinct typography that blends Hangul and Roman
writing systems, this is an inventive, genre-breaking look at
K-style in the words of those shaping it.
