G-Dragon topped the list and was especially noted for being a trendsetter, popularizing items such as skinny jeans and high-top shoes. Stylist Jung Bo Yoon said, “Even fashion school students get inspired by him. Luxury overseas brands fight over who gets to sponsor him.”
Designer Jang Kwang Ho added, “He is a national treasure when it comes to fashion sense. I really want to know where he learned how to dress.”
Ryu Seung Bum
Second on the list was actor Ryu Seung Bum, who was noted for being ahead of the curve when it comes to fashion. Although he has been selected on “Worst Dressed” lists in the past, he has also received a lot of attention as a fashionista who keeps on top of new trends.
