IVE’s Yujin spoke about her unshakable beliefs. Fashion magazine W KOREA released a digital cover and visuals from a collaboration between Yujin and the luxury brand CHANEL Watch & Fine Jewelry. In the released pictorial, Yujin showed a chic yet natural styling by matching black sleeveless tops with denim pants. She also wore simple outfits such as a black cropped cardigan and a knit dress, captivating viewers with a sharp gaze looking straight into the camera and delicate expressions. In an interview conducted along with the pictorial shoot, Yujin said about the image of herself she wants to remain unchanged even as time passes, “Sometimes, when I look at people, I feel that the excited feeling they have when they are doing what they want to do appears in their eyes and expressions. I think I have that kind of appearance too, so I don’t want to lose it.” When asked what kind of person a wonderful person is, she answered, “I think it is someone who can love others. From such people, kindness and consideration naturally seep out.” IVE, to which Yujin belongs, released their 5th mini album, Looks Can Kill, on the 26th of last month and is energetically carrying out comeback activities.
