• BTS's Jin Dominates Japanese Magazine Covers, Tops Sales Charts, and Proves He's 'Worldwide Handsome'

    BTS member Jin has once again shown his amazing popularity by topping bestseller lists for magazines in Japan!

    Jin appears on the covers of both the standard and special editions of the December issue of Vogue Japan, along with the special edition of GQ Japan.

    This is a historic moment, as it’s the first time any star has graced the covers of both magazines, earning Jin the title of a "beauty god."

    The official X (formerly Twitter) accounts for Vogue Japan and GQ Japan celebrated their collaboration with Jin by showcasing his stunning photos.

    Sabato De Sarno, the creative director of Gucci, where Jin is a global ambassador, shared his admiration for Jin with a red heart emoji and the word "Jin" in response to a video posted by GQ Japan.

    The magazines featuring Jin have been a massive success, ranking first and second in daily sales for books and magazines at Tower Records Japan on November 1.

    Pre-orders for these magazines soared, quickly making them bestsellers on Amazon Japan within just 24 hours after their launch in September.

    They also secured the top three spots on both Yes24 and Aladin Japan rankings, highlighting Jin's global superstar status.

    When pre-orders for the October issue of Vogue Korea, featuring Jin, opened on Gmarket, the bundle instantly hit number one in the books and music category.

    Similarly, the September issue of Harper's Bazaar, also with Jin on the cover, topped bestseller lists at major online bookstores like Aladin and Yes24 right after pre-orders began.

    On Rakuten, a leading e-commerce site in Japan, it quickly ranked number one as well, proving Jin's "Worldwide Handsome" charm with every magazine.

    In July, Jin made headlines when he was named the first global ambassador for the French high jewelry brand Fred.

    Jewelry pieces he wore, including a necklace worth around 134.6 million won and a bracelet priced at 37.5 million won, sold out almost immediately.

    In August, after being appointed as the global ambassador for luxury brand Gucci, items he showcased quickly vanished from shelves in Korea, the U.S., and Japan.

    With his latest role as the global ambassador for Laneige, Jin continues to set records in sales, dominating the beauty sector and proving his incredible popularity and influence worldwide.
