SEVENTEEN member DK opened up about his personal growth and the mindset he is carrying into the next stage of his career.
On August 21, Pledis Entertainment revealed that DK was selected as a cover star for the September issue of fashion and culture magazine Dazed.
The pictorial was created in collaboration with Cartier as part of a project highlighting artists and their visions for the future.
Along with the photoshoot, DK took part in an interview where he spoke about the steady effort he has made to improve himself over the years.
DK shared, “I always keep the mindset that I should continue working hard with consistency. I have kept improving myself without changing and continued making an effort to show CARAT a good side of me.”
He then described his current period as an important time of preparation.
DK said, “Right now, I am preparing for the DK who will return stronger and with more depth.”
His comments reflected a calm and thoughtful approach toward his future, with the singer emphasizing growth rather than rushing toward his next step.
DK has continued to expand his activities beyond SEVENTEEN’s group promotions. He has also showcased his vocals through the unit BSS with Seungkwan and Hoshi, as well as his DK X Seungkwan music activities.
Outside of music, DK is currently appearing as an MC on SBS variety show My Remaining Love, where he has been showing his warm and approachable personality.
With DK describing this period as a time to become “stronger and deeper,” fans are now looking forward to seeing how that personal growth will shape his future music and activities.
