TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s HUENINGKAI on Defining the Next Generation of K-Pop
Tumblr media
HUENINGKAI of TOMORROW X TOGETHER graces the cover of an exclusive edition of the Men’s Folio December/January 2023 issue.
“I’m very flexible. I’m willing to try new things and challenge myself,“ HUENINGKAI says with an expressive gesture, “I believe that I can truly learn to grow as a person once I accept the changes instead of running away.”
He is the youngest member of BIGHIT MUSIC’s fourth-generation boy group entry TOMORROW X TOGETHER, which makes music that sits comfortably between the fluorescent idealisation of teenage melodrama and the anthemic bliss of pop songs — a distinctive blend for which their debut single “Crown”, serves as its anthem. In 2019, their debut mini-album, The Dream Chapter: STAR entered the Billboard 200 chart at No. 140, making it the highest charting debut album by any male K-pop group in history and cementing the group as one to watch. Straying from the conventional, the five-member starlets are known for their distinct individualism, where their unique point of view and adolescent experiences formulate songs of effortful chemistry geared towards a sense of honesty and relatability for audiences.
HUENINGKAI is wearing the Tissot PRX Automatic Chronograph in stainless steel with matching integrated bracelet; Bottega Veneta Wool-blend jacket, wool-blend pants on the cover.
Speaking with HUENINGKAI, it becomes clear that being an artist is much more than just a presentation of perfection. The shapeshifting singer/songwriter, rapper and dancer is best known for being expressive — in “Lonely Boy” and “Good Boy Gone Bad,” his voice raptures with heartbreak and angst, gripping at every inch with anger and regret that mirrors storm clouds ebbing to the sun. It becomes a recurring feature in TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s songs and its vulnerability is indeed a rare trait amongst new groups emerging into the scene.
“Like how earlier generations of K-pop artists have shaped the industry today, I believe that the challenges the current generation of artists — including TOMORROW X TOGETHER — are tackling now could enrich the future K-pop industry,” says the young artist who is making aware of how the group and him have been finding their own conviction and ultimately, their own voice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hello HUENINGKAI! We are delighted to have you as our January 2023 cover star. The release of TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s next comeback — The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION — has been highly anticipated, could you tease what fans can expect from it? We always like to keep our new releases as a surprise to our fans. But one thing I can share at the moment is that it will be epic! The songs and the choreography greatly represent TOMORROW X TOGETHER as the artists we strive to be. I’m so excited to try out a brand new chapter with our fans, MOA.
What was the preparation for The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION like? It was a mixture of nervousness and excitement. Preparing for a new album always give me butterflies, especially because we don’t know how it will turn out until we take the stage. But I was extremely thrilled to try out the new style of music that manifests the message we want to deliver to the audience.
How does the concept of the new mini album differ from previous releases? This album’s concept focuses on how the guys from our last album — minisode 2: Thursday’s Child — transformed and embraced a new phase of their youth. Check out how “Good Boy Gone Bad” will explore the new stage of life in our new album! The sound and choreography — they are very trendy and stylish — but they still mirror who we are as artists.
It’s been almost half a year since we had new music from TOMORROW X TOGETHER, are you excited about this new chapter? Definitely! All of the members have waited to come back with a new album and meet our fans on stage. We put in a lot of efforts to create satisfying music. I can’t wait to see our fans’ reactions.
It has been four years since your debut — do you still remember the day you first performed live? What was that experience like? I remember it felt surreal. We were a new group just starting but our audiences cheered so loudly and passionately for us. We were so thrilled. It’s an experience none of us can forget.
Tumblr media
Speaking of performances, what is one dream venue you would like TOMORROW X TOGETHER to perform at one day? It’s really hard to pick one because every stage, wherever it takes place, means so much to me. I would love to perform wherever our fans, MOA are there. I can’t wait to be back on stage with our fifth EP!
Do you have a pre-performance routine or ritual before going on stage? I always remind myself and the team of putting out the best we can for our fans. I like to motivate myself to become a better performer every time.
The fans in South East Asia are wondering if the rest of TOMORROW X TOGETHER and you will ever perform here, is that something we can expect someday? Nothing is set in stone, but we are all thrilled to visit our fans in cities where we’ve never been. I just want to thank all our fans around the world for all their wholehearted support and love. Hopefully, one day, we will get to meet you there!
That brings us to the next question: is there anyone in the music industry who inspires you to grow into the artist that you are? TOMORROW X TOGETHER, of course! We try our best to tell “our” story through our songs and performances. There are so many talented artists in the music industry, but I feel like our group shines most when we sing about our own experiences and the meanings of growing up in today’s world. We want people to hear our music and relate to them. It’s what we stand for.
You were very young when you first wanted to do something with music, what charmed you about music back then? I was first attracted to singing and dancing because music is so boundless. It’s so dynamic and challenging, and I feel like it helps me grow and learn so much as an individual as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
How are you keeping up with what inspires you these days? I have so many interests. I listen to music like everyone else, and watch a lot of TV shows! Aside from all the aspects of my lifestyle, our fans MOA really inspire and motivate me. I love interacting with them not only on stage but also on a more personal level like Weverse live.
How about inspirations in terms of fashion? Has anyone been a style inspiration or muse to you? Everyone is so fashionable nowadays. You would walk down the street and be amazed by how stylish people are. But, not to pick favourites, our member YEONJUN is such a nice dresser — his outfits are always on point.
Speaking of fashion muses, the rest of TOMORROW X TOGETHER and you are put together stylishly all the time. How does it feel knowing others might regard you as their fashion muse? I would be flattered if anyone thinks of me as their fashion muse. I do have a few favourites though, like hoodies! All our fans know I own a lot of them. So, if anyone is interested in how I try to be fashionable, my words of advice would be to find what’s most interesting to you, because everyone is unique and beautiful in their own way!
How did you develop your sense of style into what it is today? I’m very focused on what I like. If I like something, I adore it. I guess you could say it speaks about me. I generally prefer comfortable clothes, and comfy attire is what I’m usually found in. It might not be fancy, but I still think it expresses who I am.
Tumblr media
Speaking of trying on different styles, how has fashion been transformative in your experience? I think fashion has been most transformative for me on stage when we perform. We’ve tried so many different sounds and genres over the years, and fashion has really helped us to amplify the vibe and mood of the song. Fashion helps complete the visual components of our shows as well as the listening experience of our albums. It helps us enter another zone and put on the best show we possibly can.
Everyone has their unique personas when it comes to personal style — how would you define yours? It’s a tough question. I would like to describe my style as friendly, approachable and very comfortable because I love to get to know people in various settings.
What do you think are your best characteristics? I’m very flexible. I’m willing to try new things and challenge myself. I believe that I can truly learn to grow as a person once I accept the changes instead of running away. It’s so intriguing that the only “constant” in life is paradoxically “change.”
What has changed the most about you while being a part of TOMORROW X TOGETHER? This is a good question, I actually want to ask this question to the other members. I learned so much, yet out of all, I learned to become a team player. There’s nothing more rewarding than accomplishing things “together.”
Tumblr media
When the group was teased before you were revealed, the phrase “You and I, different but together. We explore one dream” was shared on the introductory website, what might that dream be? There can be many different interpretations, but I think the biggest and the most meaningful dream “we” can share is finding ourselves through a beautiful journey called growing up. We are all in this together, experiencing the highs and lows life has to offer.
More importantly, TOMORROW X TOGETHER often revolves around building a possible, hopeful future. As the youngest member, what does “TOMORROW” mean to you? For me, the meaning of “tomorrow” varies from time to time. I always hope for a better tomorrow, a better future and a better me. As the youngest member of the group, I think tomorrow means growth that I get to share with amazing team members and our fans MOA.
Do you hope others will feel the same about what “TOMORROW” means? Of course! I hope others have a positive view of what tomorrow means to them. It could mean a challenge or uncharted territory, but that itself is an opportunity, right?
K-pop has helped bring Korean culture to the world; I’m also aware that you speak Mandarin and Portuguese, besides Korean and English, how does it feel to be a bridge between multiple cultures? Language is just a component that shapes an intricate web of culture. There are so many things to consider before you say you “know” a certain culture. Through K-pop, the world is more aware of Korean music and started to get interested in other aspects of Korean culture, like food and the dramas! I’m really humbled and grateful to be part of something that brings people together.
Tumblr media
What do you think this generation of K-pop can bring to the future of the K-pop industry? Like how earlier generations of K-pop artists have shaped the industry today, I believe that the challenges the current generation of artists — including TOMORROW X TOGETHER — are tackling now could enrich the future K-pop industry.
Do you have anything you have learned to let go or overcome after debuting? Every song, every dance and every tour is a challenge I successfully overcome. Yes, they are difficult and sometimes even scary. So, I’ve learned not to be afraid of anything without trying, I would say.
Lastly, do you have any messages for your fans in South East Asia? Words cannot express how much I love you MOA! Thank you for always being with us. We hope to see you soon.

Les Cartier de Meghan Part 5: So long and Tanks for all the fish by u/Mickleborough
Les Cartier de Meghan, Part 5: So long, and Tanks for all the fish To wrap up the ramblings of Cartier, Meghan, and That Watch.As far as I can tell, the Tank wasn’t particularly associated with Diana in her lifetime - not like, say, the Cambridge Lover’s Knot Tiara; the Lady Dior bag; or even the Revenge Dress, worn with the equally famous sapphire and pearl choker. It was just a watch she wore after her divorce.Apparently William and Harry were allowed to choose some pieces from her personal jewellery collection as mementos. Why did William select the Tank? Perhaps, at age 14 in 1996, when she began to wear it, that made the most impression on him. Perhaps he associated watches with her - the Prince of Wales has been seen wearing only 1 watch, the comparatively inexpensive Omega Seamaster Quartz 300m, rumoured to have been a gift from his mother when he was at Eton.For most of her marriage, Diana wore (and was photographed with) the watch that the then Prince Charles gave her for her 20th birthday, weeks before their wedding: a Patek Philippe Calatrava.Diana rocking the 2 watch look before anyone else: his and hers Pateks.In short, Meghan’s not wearing some significant piece from Diana’s collection. The Tank seems to have gained some notoriety only because she’s been seen wearing it. Otherwise, it’s arguably unremarkable - certainly not as well-known as the Ceylon sapphire and diamond engagement ring now on the finger of the Princess of Wales.And it’s very possible that, of all of Diana’s watches, Meghan prefers the Tank (so called because it’s meant to resemble a tank from above) because it’s gold, recognisable, from a well-known house (although, from a watchmaker’s perspective, Patek Philippe and many others are held in higher regard than Cartier), and can be displayed in a flashy manner - as Meghan often does.Not a diamond bracelet, but the Swiss Federal Republic watch, a platinum and diamond Vacheron Constantin given by Switzerland to the late Queen Elizabeth II in 1947 on the occasion of her marriage, and which she later gave to Diana. Oh Meghan! Aren’t they the South Sea pearl and diamond earrings, which the Princess of Wales has worn a few times?PostscriptWearing watches seems to be a generational thing. The late Queen Elizabeth II had several watches, from the best watchmakers. So does the King. In contrast, the Prince of Wales seems to have just the one watch, the Omega Seamaster from his mother (cost: low 4 figures). The Princess of Wales often sports her 3rd wedding anniversary present from her husband, a Cartier Ballon Bleu in stainless steel (also costing low 4 figures) - on other occasions, she wears a Tissot (not even 4 figures).Thank you for staying until the end! post link: https://ift.tt/l7Z8WS5 author: Mickleborough submitted: September 26, 2023 at 11:29PM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit

journal entry for today,
My prose reads like thousands of little ribbons unraveling so very sweetly. Every thought is something smooth; if you dipped your fingers into them, they would ripple iridescent. This morning, on my way to university, I took a look at the grass, which was vibrant green, and I marveled at each little sparkle pearling on each little strand, like beads of blue morning sunlight. This is where the divine sleeps. Holy water. I crack my fingers, I render them supple. I remember my mother saying the most beautiful hands she had seen belonged to one of her children, me; I remember my siblings’ cousin telling me I got my hands from who he believes is my grandmother. I remember, when my mother told me my father was somebody I never knew, asking her about my hands, where they come from, and she told me they came from her. My height comes from my father. My hair comes from my father. My eyes come from my father. My lack of soul comes from winter.
Judith declared that God manifested Himself through her hands, the hands of a woman.
My fingers are always so cold and stiff and trembling. They crave gentleness, warmth. They are repulsed by unwanted touch. My fingers are sacred. When I offer my hands, I offer one of the layers of my intimacy. It is a gift. I want to present my hands, give them up to be caressed and admired. A kiss on the knuckles, easing into trust. I want to hold with this subtle tenderness, this supple caress, because I want to hold much sweeter than I behold. I want someone to take notice, how the moon-kissed sunlight shines so bright on my hands and renders them translucent. How my touch is fleeting, how it carries my calligraphy, my craft, my muscle memory, and how it writes itself on its most longed for surface, a loved one’s skin, like my prose, like thousands of little ribbons unraveling. so very sweetly. How water drops from my nails after washing. This is where the divine sleeps. Holy water. Counterculture—it’s contradictory.
I went to day camp at the museum when I was thirteen, obsessed with Lana Del Rey and Marina and the Diamonds. There was a bitchy little gay boy who hated on everybody; he said of me that all he liked were my hands. An odd but still cherished backhanded compliment. From May of 2022 through June of 2023, I slept next to a lonely and miserable man to whom I offered my hands; he rejected them on account that they were cold. The temperature of his body was always so warm and welcoming, but his spirit and muscles recoiled from my touch. I stuck my hands between my thighs.
All that emits light is holy, and all that takes on a circular shape is mystical. I own forty CD’s. I especially like eating from a bowl. My favourite metro station is Peel, with all of its circular ceramics by Jean-Paul Mousseau embedded into the walls and floating floors. Witches work best in circles because women’s histories operate in cycles. Circular shapes are infinite. Women summon from them. The moon is eternal. Street lights are her daughters. Grapes are the sweetest fruits, blueberries are angels. Ladybugs are feyries, and those who carry exactly seven dots wear the burden of Mary’s sorrows. Eyes own, seize, and possess. They are simultaneously window and mirror, a paradox. A classmate of mine told me my eyes were baroque. My eyes are empty. There is only one path, and it leads to the ferris wheel.
I always watch my step, and I’ve just seen a butterfly resting on the sidewalk; I kneeled right then and there, because catching such an ephemeral creature immobile is the rarest experience. Lace fabric is a pastiche of the wings of a butterfly; it tries to replicate the delicately carved veils and their perpetual apotheosis; what it can’t emulate is the hypostasis, that of weightlessness. This butterfly, she was beautiful, showing off her wings for me and letting me take note of the purple bleeding into orange, which reminded me of myself, and of October by James Tissot, which hangs on a lilac wall at the museum. It reminded me, also, of the leaves turning copper; as she lay there, shining her brightest, iridescent, waiting for someone to step on her, she served as a memento mori. Nature morte.

Crazy Rich Us [Part II]
Tumblr media
“There’s rich, there’s filthy rich, and then there’s crazy rich”
Characters: Tara, Mark, Sungjae, M
Word count: 1,8k 
Genre: angst, fluff(?)
Crazy Rich Asians AU
(Part of the Gossip Witch Universe, but can be read on its own)
The Peninsula, Paris, 2032
Mark opened his eyes to a beam of sunlight shining upon his face. It took him a second or two to remember the reason why he was waking up in a suite at the Peninsula and not the shabby chic apartment he shared with Tara in London. Still slightly disoriented, the man reached out for the Tissot watch on the bedside table. It was ten past eight. Mark lay on the bed for a few seconds before recalling he had agreed to help Sungjae in some last-minute preparations for M’s bachelor party. Then he would meet his good friend Johnny for lunch. A smile crept onto his face at the thought of Johnny Suh.
Mark met Johnny during freshman orientation at Oxford and they instantly became inseparable. After one semester, Johnny would go around calling Mark his “best buddy” and even went as far as renting a flat they could share. Although the last thing Johnny was willing to do was to sacrifice his privacy, he still went through it because he knew Mark and his mother struggled to pay his rent every month and his best friend was just too prideful to accept any help. The thing was, paying rent was not even part of Johnny’s list of concerns. Johnny Suh was filthy rich and absolutely unapologetic about it. Coming from the merge of two old money families—a Korean father, heir of a tech conglomerate, and an American mother whose pedigree almost rivaled that of the Vanderbilts—the young man was the type of guy who had grown up knowing his Buccellati from his Boucheron. Johnny and his family would sweep through the world staying in luxurious properties, eating at restaurants with the most Michelin stars, and indulging in limitless shopping. That explained his penchant for showing up to class dressed as though he was attending a fashion show. It also explained his annoying tendency to be almost unbearably generous. Thanks to Johnny—and much to Mark’s dismay and initial refusal—the pair spent most of their college years enjoying glorious meals at culinary destinations like Old Parsonage and The Perch and going on weekend getaways to places like Le Manoir Aux Quat’Saisons and other manorial private properties in the English countryside. Mark also spent part of his college life driving—against his will—a Porsche Carrera Johnny even dubbed “Mark’s ride.”  
Mark was emerging from the nostalgic remembrance when his phone started buzzing under the pillow. He dismissed the alarm and scrolled through the schedule Tara had emailed him before their trip. Apparently, keeping up with the millions of fancy activities M and Jane had prepared for their wedding required, at the very least, an updated agenda. That morning the bride’s party was meeting for brunch at Apicius and later, at night, they were supposed to attend a soirée Jane’s maid of honor was throwing to officially kick off the wedding week. That explained why Tara was nowhere to be found. She was probably up and ready to fill her duties as a bridesmaid. After all, he had been told, M and Jane's wedding was supposed to be a big deal, with a considerable list of VIPs in attendance. Though he was yet to discover how his girlfriend had grown so close to Jane and her family in a few years, he supposed Tara’s help was surely needed.
“You’re up,” Tara’s voice remarked when she walked into the room, pushing Mark out of his thoughts. As predicted, she was all dressed up, clad in a beige tweed skirt and jacket ensemble, ankle boots, and her hair perfectly combed into a high ponytail. She wore minimal make-up, a golden watch, and several rings on her fingers. Watching her from distance, Mark realized he had rarely seen Tara so dolled up. Granted, his girlfriend was always beautiful, but he realized he had never seen her wearing anything more elaborated than what her students described as professor Lee’s light Academia aesthetics. That was a lot of cozy knit sweaters, cardigans, sweater vests, jeans, oversized blazers, and trench coats combined with loafers and Oxford shoes.
Dressed in that tweed set, Tara almost looked like a different woman.  Mark tried not to point it out, but eventually, he ended up asking,
“Is that a new outfit? I don’t remember seeing it before.”
Tara shrugged. “It’s a gift from my brother. Probably his way of saying I need to up my fashion game since we’re in Paris,” she joked, moving around the room and picking stuff from her vanity and her bag. “I know you said you’ll help Sungjae with some errands before we leave for Cannes, but any chance you guys can join the rest of us for brunch?” Tara asked casually as she stuffed a Chanel bag with her wallet, keys, and other objects.
“I don’t think so, I’ll have lunch with Johnny, remember? I am not sure where we’ll be going, but you know him, he always has these crazy plans.” Mark said with a shrug. “Sorry, but I’ll tell Sungjae, maybe he wants to drop by.”
Tara scoffed loudly, “without someone dragging him there? I doubt it,” she added skeptically.
“I know Sungjae is not a fan of socialization, but it’s his best friend’s wedding, give him some credit.” Mark rose to his feet and walked up to Tara.
“You think I’m talking about Sungjae’s aversion to social gatherings?” Tara looked at her boyfriend with a raised brow and then scoffed “You’re so cute.” Before Mark could complain and ask questions Tara pressed her lips against his cheek. “I’ll get going, you get ready and have fun with the guys, I’ll see you later.” Mark would’ve said something, but Tara’s camelia’s perfume invading his nostrils left him too stunned to speak. He only followed her with his eyes as she walked out of the room. What was his girlfriend talking about?
MIGNON, Paris, 2032
Mark met Sungjae outside MIGNON, in the 18th arrondissement. Located in an unassuming building in Caulaincourt, close to Montmartre, the café was the perfect spot to escape from tourist hordes and experience Paris as true locals. Unlike Guy Savoy, the coffee shop served a motley selection of French gourmandises and oddities such as bio, homemade strawberry tartines, and watermelon lemonade that M loved. Back when they were in high school, Sungjae and M would always enjoy French pastries and watermelon lemonade prepared by the chef running the kitchen at M’s home. Though the man had long passed to better life, whenever they visited France, they would visit his family’s small shops, scattered around Paris, Bretagne, and Provence.
“I thought we were meeting without M,” Mark whispered to Sungjae when he caught a glimpse of their friend sitting inside the shop.
“It’s a long story, but we’re providing an alibi. He’s not dealing well with the pressure,” Sungjae said, wrapping an arm around Mark and pulling him along as he walked into MIGNON.
M had already ordered brunch and was sipping from a glass of watermelon lemonade when his friends caught up with him.
“Sorry I am late, I kinda got lost. The metro station had all these stairs-“ Mark started, but since M did not look up from his plate, Sungjae chimed in.
“So what else do we have to do today? The tuxes are in from London,” He pulled a chair and sat in front of his best friend as Mark took the empty spot beside him. “I’m just waiting to hear back from some of the last-minute people about the rehearsal next week and we can-”
M clamped his eyes shut and massaged his temples “Can we please not talk about that goddamned wedding?”
Mark couldn’t school his expression to hide his surprise so Sungjae nudged him almost imperceptibly. After a decades-worth friendship, he had learned to recognize when M needed some space. It didn’t happen often, but on rare occasions, he hit one of his down days and the usually cheerful and understanding M vanished completely.
“Okay then. What do you want to talk about?” Sungjae asked calmly.
M didn’t respond, so Mark looked at Sungjae confused. Did something happen that he completely missed out on? Thankfully, before Mark had the bad sense of opening his mouth to ask questions, the waiter, a man who looked their age, but the three of them would’ve been surprised to find out was barely eighteen, approached the table to take Mark and Sungjae’s order.
“I’ll get an allongé, une tartine pesto, jambon de Parme et noisettes, and Mark will get the strawberry and watermelon lemonade with-“ Sungjae made a pause looking at Mark in the eye, “waffles and fruit of the season?”
Mark nodded, chuckling both at how predictable he was and at the way Sungjae proceeded to translate his order into French.
“I know I am so predictable, and we’ll get back to that in a sec, but when did you even learn French? The last thing I remember, you used to ask me to translate even the smallest French words when we were in college,” Mark joked, looking at Sungjae with his eyes wide open.
“That-“ Sungjae smacked himself mentally when he realized he babbled briefly before adding “My secretary is French.”
M looked up, paying attention to his friends for the first time since they got there. He looked at Sungjae for a second before finally breaking the silence. “You’re a terrible liar,” he told Sungjae and then turned to Mark. “And you, you never change, do you?”
Mark opened his mouth to protest, but M went on. “Have you ever changed your mind about anything?”
Mark floundered, lost for words for a brief moment. “I do, but I also know what I like, so-“ Mark shook his head. “Wait, have you? Is that why we’re here? Are having second thoughts about the wedding?”
“What? No!” M said almost automatically, then he corrected himself “I mean, yes, but not about marrying Jane-” M took a deep breath as Sungjae leaned back into his seat, patiently waiting for him to continue and Mark leaned forward looking at him attentively. “Of course, I want to marry Jane. I just- I just never seem to have a saying in anything regarding my own life” M finally said bitterly.
Mark looked at M profusely confused, but Sungjae remained silent. He couldn’t really say anything, but of course, he understood M’s concerns. On the pages of magazines, there was nothing people talked about other than M and Jane’s wedding. Everything about their union had turned into a staged family merger and not the marriage of two people in love.
“I haven’t been in the position to make a single choice since I was born,” M said matter-of-factly. “It’s a good thing I actually want to marry Jane. I just don’t know how I’ll make it through the Broadway production, that’s all. I have this perverse fantasy of kidnapping her, jumping on a plane, and marrying her in some sort of improvised ceremony in the Toscana”
It said a lot about his friends that they both replied “Then why not do it” almost in unison.
