BTS’s Jungkook is once again drawing global attention after being named among the 50 most stylish male musicians by a major US magazine.
According to Esquire, Jungkook ranked No. 11 on its list of “The most stylish men in music.” The ranking highlights artists who stand out not only for music, but also for strong fashion influence and personal style.
Esquire pointed to Jungkook’s successful solo debut album “GOLDEN” in 2023, saying it helped him clearly stand apart from his peers.
The magazine also noted that his presence in the K pop scene goes beyond music, highlighting his bold and confident image that breaks away from typical idol stereotypes.
The outlet described Jungkook’s style as a striking mix of Western high fashion and Asian street fashion, praising his free spirited attitude and clear personal taste.
His influence has continued to grow since becoming a Calvin Klein ambassador in 2023, with Esquire noting that his fashion choices often lead to sold out items and strong global reactions. Because of this, he has earned the nickname “Sold Out King.”
Esquire summed up its praise by calling Jungkook “a truly golden presence.”
Jungkook’s fashion impact was also seen last year when he attended New York Fashion Week for the 2026 Spring Summer season.
With just one social media post, he generated an estimated 825,000 dollars in media exposure, and data showed he was the most mentioned person among attending celebrities, recording a 55.09 percent mention rate, more than double that of second place.
On the day of his appearance alone, more than 1.3 million posts related to Jungkook were shared on social media platform X, making him the most mentioned musician of the event.
From magazine rankings to real time social media impact, Jungkook continues to prove his strong influence in both music and fashion, further confirming his status as a global artist with unmatched presence.
