This is a very different style from what you would normally see in Korean streets. Not a lot of people where outfits like this and I'm glad that you captured it.
You see a lot of people in Korean movies that dress like this but I think it's the Japanese influence.
From all the times I've been in Korea, I think I've never seen anyone dress like this or have I ever imagined.
thank you for the capture!

Overall, I love his color matching with tone variation of NAVY. His coat, jacket and pants looks so neatly and consistently arraged, but he also keeps uniqueness by details like the patterned scarf, the hat with wide visor and fur on the coat. What I admire most in his look is his pants wich has belt loops like a normal slacks but is banded like a training. It is interesting… I think I would buy a pants like that if I can find!

I am Korean and have been looking forward to your photos from Seoul. I am loving your first photo up.
Be sure to check out Leeum Art Museum and Seoul N Tower if you have free time. It's a nice escape and you can see the Seoul skyline from above.
And in Apkujeong, Cafe Papergarden has a nice ambience. Garosoogil has plenty of cafes (and beautiful people) as well.
Good day!

I remember living in South Korea as a child (military parents) back in 92. The Korean girls walked around with the smallest backpacks that could have been the size of purses. We thought it was hilarious, but 3 years later, back in the states, those little backpack purses became all the rage. This photo is amazing because it brings back those memories. His style is nothing new to him, but it brings a sense of freshness to all of us. Thanks for this!!!

It's interesting how he's partly wearing women's items and yet it's still a very masculine look.
And the fur collar looks great – not many men seem to go for fur, but I think it looks really classy.

Also he keeps his personal uniqueness by a hat with wide visor, fur on the coat and patterned scarf. However what I admire most is his pants, which has belt loops like a normal slacks but also banded openings like a training pants. I think I would try that kind of pants if I can find one!

I love this… Ok, for his own sake, I wish he weren't smoking. But it channels Wilde, he's elegant, he's his own man. I worked in Seoul covering the Olympics in 1988– it was not, then, a place where people seemed encouraged to express their individuality. The hat, the scarf, the French boatman's t-shirt — the shoes!!! — what a beautiful moment. Thanks as always for capturing it.

Interesting subject to say the least. Good nutrition has given him larger frame than most Koreans. Note the hand larger than the pant pocket. The pant legs tucked away at socks…clever.

1. Abgujung(chungdam-dong); in seoul
nice area, fancy-ish, good cafes and restaurants, many fashion-related people hang out there.
Cafes, etc that I recommend: Paper Garden, Zen, Mui-Mui, Queen
You can just walk around the area and find many nice things- best time would be a weekend afternoon/ nighttime.
2. Hongdae(Hongik university); in seoul
- that area is kinda symbol of young people's fashion and clubs.
so many youngs(20`s) are spending their night time in that area and your friend could find out unique fashioned people easily.
-recommended time?kk: friday night… you know… clubs..
3. insadong; in seoul
- as you know Insadong is very traditional area. Not as much fashion, but a great place to visit. Beautiful tea shops and places for rice-cakes and tea, old traditional buildings, traditional restaurants where you sit on hardwood floors and eat great food.
GREAT tea/rice-cake house:
4. Jungjadong; in Bundang
- JungJadong is usually called "imitation of abgujung cafe road). cuz it is built by urban planing few years ago but so famous in korea now.

Hm, such an intriguing composition. Part of a gondolier (the Tshirt), part gangster (moustache and hat), part Eastern aristocrate (fur collar). I wonder what did he mean by the bouffant leg and Norwegian socks. Yet, a little too feminine the scarf. Anyway, more than catchy his look…

You can reach there by subway line number 2. That station name is "Hong Dae Ip Gu". If you have time to visit another cities, I would like to say that you'd better visit Busan and Daegu.

Oh, for me, this is much like from a Wong Kar Wai film!
The fur and the (somewhat funny!) socks make the look.
Still most of all I am intrigued by the person. What gentle but firm features!
A very film-like image for someone from Europe.
I am so much looking forward to more images. Thanks a lot

I think they might be more impressed with a friend, or colleague, or other unknown. Aren't there any not-in-the-biz fashionistas in Korea?
My first impression (mind you, I've never seen the guy before, nor would I care that he is a "famous Korean model") was simply PIMP.

Regardless of how stunning the look is, I can't help but to mention that the whole shot looks a bit fakish. Maybe it's the combination of how famous the model is in Korea and how irrelavent the look is to actual Korean look. And trust me, that scarf just can't keep you warm enough to stay outside in this season of Korea.

I'm so excited you're blogging from Seoul! Thank you! I lived there for a couple years and adored the Queen's Palace–absolutely beautiful–and go for a hike in the park behind Yonsei University. I don't remember the name, but stunning views of the city on a clear day. All of this is in Gangbuk (North of the River) where the "old" city of Seoul resided. You're going to have a blast photographing the modern fashion sensibilities of Koreans in a historic setting.

Love everything except the trousers and shoes. The top is really cool, with the scarf and the hat, the coat, all awesome. But somehow to me, i don't exactly know how to put it, the pants and shoes make him look thin and uncomfortable. Too smooth or something , i don't know, it just doesn't work for me.

Dear Sartorialist,
You have impacted my days in a big way and – I'm quite sure – the days of many others. Please be aware of your power. This is a perfect example of what happens when photographers simply "react". The continuous artistic portrayal of fashionable smokers in your photos has the ability to make a profoundly negative impact. No need to be a martyr for the cause, just less pics with cigs :)
Also, thanks for promoting socks and shoes ;)

To everyone saying this man–or any man these days–looks like a pimp: you are wrong!
Most real pimps haven't worn wide-brim hats, long coats, or extravagant flourishes like Hermes scarves since the late 1970s. The ones you see doing it in the media and at events like Players' Balls are mostly doing it for show. Kind of like drag balls. Even Snoop Dog will say he's dressing up as Superfly.
Real pimps wear track suits, jeans and sneakers, maybe even a designer suit here and there. Basically, they look like regular guys wearing regular clothes.
Pimping is illegal, and the best way to do that crime is to be as inconspicuous as possible.
