    The global K-pop group ILLIT (YoonA, Minju, Moka, Wonhee, Iroha) is stealing hearts with their unpredictable and endless charm. On October 22, Vogue Korea dropped the digital cover and photos for its November issue, featuring the girls of ILLIT.

    The photoshoot, taken in Paris during Fashion Week, captures ILLIT’s transformation into ‘mischievous princesses’ with stunning backdrops. Some of the photos show the members striking bold poses with fierce gazes, while others highlight their free-spirited and elegant side, set against a vintage background.

    The unit shots, where the group was split into two teams, left a strong impression as well. YoonA, Minju, and Iroha gave off a dreamy yet chic vibe, while Moka and Wonhee showed off their cute and lovely chemistry.

    In addition to the photoshoot, ILLIT teamed up with Vogue Korea and Apple Music for a special project.

The playlist also features the photos from their Vogue shoot as the cover image.

    Meanwhile, ILLIT made their highly anticipated comeback on October 21 with their second mini-album, I’LL LIKE YOU. The music video for their title track Cherish (My Love) hit over 10 million views in just 16 hours, breaking their previous record.

    The album sold around 300,000 copies on the first day and all the tracks landed on Melon’s ‘Hot 100,’ showing ILLIT’s growing power in both album sales and streaming charts.

  • Fans can't stop swooning over BTS's V showing off cherry blossoms and his toned muscles just 40 days before discharge

    BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

    On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

    Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

    He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

    To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

    It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

    In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

    But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

    This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

    Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

    As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

    He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
