Jungho, the powerhouse vocalist of K-pop group Ateez, made his Paris Fashion Week debut front row at Ami this menswear season. The singer attended the show dressed in a button-up shirt with sleeves rolled up, white T-shirt and pants, and slouchy bag — and like many attendees, accessorized with a handheld fan in the front row amid the city’s heatwave. After the show, he celebrated with dinner at Le Lobby at The Peninsula Paris and took in the Eiffel Tower in an all-denim Ami look.
Jungho wasn’t the only Ateez member in town for fashion week: group mates Mingi attended a party for Christian Louboutin’s new collection, and Seonghwa walked the runway for Songzio.
A couple days after their collective fashion week appearances, Ateez released their latest comeback mini album, “Golden Hour: Part.5,” along with the music video for title track “Bad,” starring actress Chase Infiniti. This past weekend, Ateez headed to London as the headliner for the BST Hyde Park festival on Sunday. They’ll return to Seoul for a three-day concert in mid-July, followed by performances in Japan in early August.
