JULY 11: Fit For Any Role: Park Seo Jun
Park Seo Jun has indeed proven himself to be fit for any role, especially with K-Drama hits such as What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim and Itaewon Class, to classics such as She Was Pretty and Fight for My Way.
TopTen (Upper Ground B, Gateway Mall 2)
It’s just fitting to attend the fan meeting of your favorite Korean actors decked in clothes from TopTen, a fashion brand from South Korea. Look simple, yet stylish in pieces from TopTen; don’t forget to complete the look with hints of red so you can match with Mr. Seo Jun himself!
Mango (Upper Ground Floor, Gateway Mall 1)
For a more classy, elevated casual outfit, Mango is a good fit—especially for those Titas of Manila (or aspiring Titas of Manila, that is) who love K-Dramas! With Mango’s selection of blouses and dresses, you’ll surely look ready to meet Vice-chairman Lee Youngjoon.
JULY 26: Welcome to Hyeri’s Studio
Singer-actress Lee Hyeri is holding her first-ever fan meeting in the Philippines this July 26!
Whether you know her from her roles in Reply 1988, My Roommate Is a Gumiho, and most recently, the Friendly Rivalry, or from her fun and charming personality as a cast member across different Korean variety shows—Filipino fans are undoubtedly excited to meet her!
Think classy, girly, and cutesy! Get inspired by Hyeri’s fan meeting poster and dress yourself in frills and pastels. Stores like Plains & Prints and Bayo are great for this kind of fashion!
