btw korean media recently highlighted jongin as an example of an idol who completed his military service with dedication, mentioning that he received a 5-day special leave (an award given to exemplary public service workers) and cited the heartfelt comments shared by his former coworkers under his salon drip video, who described him as kind, sincere, dependable, and someone who always treated everyone with warmth and respect toward both staff and elderly visitors. they even shared how many netizens praised his humility and said these stories reflect how diligently he carried out his service. so here i am crying because i'm reminded i've never seen a better man omg
[MEDIA] 260626 Magazine B
KAI was interviewed for Magazine B's Lacoste edition while in attendance at the FW26 show:
STYLE
"I'm wearing a trench coat made from a waterproof fabric. The light color brightens up even a cloudy day, and it works well with the washed-out match concept of this runway show. In everyday life, I often find myself reaching for Lacoste outerwear. The fit and silhouette fall so neatly that I often wear it when flying, too. If I were to give a styling tip, I'd recommend mixing in light accents rather than trying too hard. Adding a casual street element with a cap or pair of trousers can create a natural balance with that clean Lacoste outerwear look. Lacoste pieces already have a classic and polished feel on their own, so I think they look best when styled in a way that highlights the silhouette. I usually aim for something that feels comfortable but still looks put together, and that's what I like most about Lacoste."
MEMORY
"I've been familiar with Lacoste polo shirts since I was young. I've also been wearing classic basics like polo shirts and denim shirts for a long time. The cute crocodile logo always stood out to me. I had always thought of it as a comfortable and familiar brand because it felt like it was always around. But over time, I came to appreciate how important that simplicity is, and how difficult it is to pull off. I also find it appealing that it still feels just as relevant to wear now."
LACOSTE
"Maybe because sport is so deeply embedded in its DNA, Lacoste shows feel unusually relaxed yet infused with energy, and my body automatically responds to that. I was able to experience everythingโthe structure of the show, the staging, even the musicโwith all my senses, and it made the brand's storytelling feel especially clear. Working with the brand as an ambassador has only strengthened my admiration, as I've come to see its history and its spirit of challenge more closely. I find it especially impressive that the brand continues to build on its heritage while embracing new ideas, and that it connects sport and fashion so naturally. I want to help expose more people to that appeal."
