Group IVE's Jang Wonyoung graced the cover of Harper's Bazaar's 29th anniversary issue.
The fashion magazine Harper's Bazaar revealed the cover for the August issue featuring Jang Wonyoung and the Italian luxury fashion brand Miu Miu on the 10th and 11th.
Jang Wonyoung has been active as an ambassador for Miu Miu since 2021. Furthermore, at the age of 18, she adorned the cover of Harper's Bazaar, becoming the youngest cover model in the magazine's history.
In the covers released over two days, Jang Wonyoung perfectly embodied Miu Miu's 2025 F/W collection looks, showcasing her 'human Miu Miu' features. From the lovely girl concept to the main concept of this photo shoot, 'Ice Princess,' her visuals naturally captured attention, invoking a desire to collect.
In an interview after the shoot, Jang Wonyoung discussed her philosophy regarding 'Lucky Biki' and 'Wonyoung’s way of thinking,' which have led to major trends across all generations.
Jang Wonyoung noted, "What I feel is that effort always comes back like a boomerang in some form. If the results haven’t followed, it simply means the time isn’t right yet," adding, "In those times, it's better to think, 'My efforts are surely sprouting somewhere right now,' rather than becoming discouraged," showcasing her characteristic bright and positive energy.
She also mentioned the title track 'ATTITUDE' from IVE's mini-album 'IVE EMPATHY.' Jang Wonyoung selected the line, 'Even if I bump into things here and there, luck is always on my side,' as her unwavering 'favorite lyric,' stating, "My English name 'Biki' since childhood was derived from the nickname of the goddess of victory, Victoria. My mom always named me to win, and it's amazing how that has led to 'Lucky Biki.'"
Additionally, she shared, "Like the lyrics, what I used to say since kindergarten was, 'The goddess of fortune is on my side.' I believe words have power. So even if I bump into things here and there, luck will ultimately be on my side," showcasing her charm as a 'positive icon.'
Jang Wonyoung's cover and more photo shoots can be found in the August issue of Harper's Bazaar, while the fashion film can be checked on the official website and social media.
Meanwhile, IVE, which includes Jang Wonyoung, has been invited to perform solo for about 55 minutes at 'Lollapalooza Berlin' at the Olympiastadion & Olympiapark Berlin on the 12th (local time), marking the first time a K-pop girl group has been invited.
