In South Korea, fans celebrate end of military service for K-pop's BTS
Every hour, this ritual set the pace for the BTS Festa 2025, a marketing event at Kintex, South Korea's largest exhibition center, in Goyang, northwest of Seoul, on June 13 and 14. The event also marked the group's 12 th anniversary and followed the successive discharges of four members on June 10 and 11, while the last member was released on June 21. Two others had already completed their service in 2024.
To mark their return, a multitude of interactive booths featuring the boy band awaited fans: augmented reality photo ops, pre-recorded voice messages from the members, spaces dedicated to each idol's personal items and even a wall mural to color. In the evening, the luckiest were able to attend a concert by J-Hope, the group's iconic dancer, marking the end of his first world solo tour.

Jisoo's back again for latest Self-Portrait campaign
Self-Portrait loves its K-pop connections and theLondon fashion house is back with a campaign starring South Korean superstar actress and singer Jisoo for autumn/winter 2025. It marks the fourth season she's fronted the brand's global imagery and this time Jisoo is reimagined as 'an icon of the swinging sixties', first for the pre-fall campaign and then for autumn/winter 2025. Shot once again by Drew Vickers, 'she moves through imagined cityscapes brought to life through [Vickers'] signature use of generative image-making, unfolding across luminous, neon-lit metropolises', we're told. And there's nothing but praise for the campaign's star from Self-Portrait founder and creative director Han Chong: 'There's something so effortless about working with Jisoo because she doesn't need to perform or overthink anything, she has a presence that draws people in. 'Each season we've created a world around her and this campaign continues the story, taking it into a new dimension. Her community have been so engaged with everything we've done together, and I hope they'll be excited by how the story has evolved across the two seasons.' Throughout the campaign, she wears a curated selection of looks from the AW25 collection including a black 3D crepe flower mini dress, a white lace signature mini, a grey wool knit playsuit, and a black floral lace midi skirt. Other standout pieces include a black bouclé jacket with fur cuffs, belted knit leggings, a black metallic pussy-bow blouse, and blue barrel-leg jeans. Accessories include black croc-effect micro and mini bags.
