San has given K-pop fans another reason to keep scrolling through their social media feeds.
The ATEEZ member was among the guests at Vogue World in Milan, where he turned up in a Dolce & Gabbana three-piece suit. And while the outfit was rooted in classic menswear, a few details kept it from looking too predictable. The singer wore a pinstriped blazer with padded shoulders, notched lapels and patch pockets. The sleeves were cut neatly at the wrists, with just a bit of his white shirt showing through. He wore the jacket over a matching waistcoat, which had a V-neck and button fastening. The fitted cut kept the three-piece suit looking sharp without making it feel too stiff. A crisp white shirt and brown silk tie completed the top half of the outfit. Then came the trousers, which had a flared fit rather than the usual straight or slim cut. That small change gave the suit a slightly more relaxed feel. But the detail that really leaned into the old-school vibe was the pocket watch. San wore one on a silver chain, letting it hang from the waistcoat. He kept everything else fairly simple. Black leather shoes, swept-back hair and a clean-shaven face finished the look.
San, born on July 10, 1999, is one of ATEEZ’s lead vocalists and main performers. ATEEZ debuted in October 2018 and has since built a large fan base around the world.
“Choi San Supremacy, everyone,” another fan declared. Once photos and videos from the Milan event started appearing online, fans were quick to react. And, as expected, San’s appearance didn’t go unnoticed. “What an aura. He owned that venue,” one Instagram user wrote. Someone else had a much shorter reaction: “Italy sure suits him well. He is part of the eight-member group alongside Hongjoong, Seonghwa, Yunho, Yeosang, Mingi, Wooyoung and Jongho. San is from Namhae-gun in South Gyeongsang Province, South Korea, and has also served as a promotional ambassador for the county. And this isn’t the first time he’s had the internet talking. His performance in ATEEZ’s BAD recently became a talking point among fans, particularly that chest-thump followed by his very deliberate stare into the camera. Naturally, people went back to watch the moment again and again. This time, San didn’t need a stage or a performance to grab attention. A pinstriped suit, a pocket watch and a Milan appearance did the job just fine. You use AI every day. Now get your AI Quotient. Take the AIQ test Get the latest Lifestyle News and more.
