Yeonjun says "I Saw a New Side of Myself" Through Petra Collins

TXT's Yeonjun is offering fans a new look at his artistic identity through a photography exhibition created in collaboration with renowned photographer Petra Collins.

Titled Yeonjun by Petra Collins with VOGUE SALON, the exhibition will run from June 12 to June 21 at Yeonmujang 11-gil in Seoul's Seongdong District. The project is part of VOGUE SALON, which is an initiative by Vogue Korea designed to expand its content experiences beyond print and digital platforms into physical spaces.

The exhibition features more than 90 photographs captured by Collins, presenting Yeonjun across a variety of settings ranging from early summer landscapes to dreamlike and surreal environments. The collection highlights a different side of Yeonjun, showcasing a softer and more intimate image compared to the charismatic persona audiences often seen on stage.

Petra Collins, who is internationally recognized for her work exploring youth, identity, and fan culture, has previously collaborated with artists which include Selena Gomez, Cardi B, and Billie Eilish.

Speaking at a discussion event held on June 11, Yeonjun reflected on the experience of working with the acclaimed photographer. "I've seen Petra Collins' work before, but I couldn't imagine what I would look like through her lens," he said. "That made the project exciting. Even though it was my own face, seeing a new side of myself felt fresh and interesting."

Collins also praised the artist, describing him as someone who possesses both warmth and mystery. "From the moment we met, Yeonjun was kind, curious, and full of energy," she said. "He is a rare person who embodies both softness and a sense of mystery."

Beyond music, Yeonjun has continued to expand his presence within the fashion industry. Recently named a Friend of the House for Miu Miu, he is also currently appearing as a mentor on tvN's Kill It: Style Creator Survival, further showing his influence across both the music and fashion worlds.
