Fans swoon over Lee Min-ho's gaze in his cover pictorial for Dazed Korea's August issue

Lee Min-ho will be appearing on three different covers for Dazed Korea's August issue. All three covers have completely different themes, with one portraying the actor in a light ensemble against a white background, another with the K-drama star in a darker look in a blacked-out room, and the final cover being a black-and-white image.

The Heirs actor often experiments with different looks, opting for loose-fit outfits for this cover pictorial. The actor rocked all-Fendi outfits, especially making use of the Italian luxury brand's extensive selection of handbags.

For his makeup, the K-drama star went with a natural makeup look, keeping his base makeup sheer to let his freckles shine through. Although he kept his lip makeup quite subtle, he went with a darker eye makeup look to draw attention toward his gaze. He lined his lower lash line with darker eyeliner to further accentuate his eyes, making his facial features the central focus of the pictorial.

Netizens loved Lee Min-ho's "intense gaze" in the cover pictorial, noting that they were the "eyes of the king". Many exclaimed that Fendi's aesthetics perfectly pair with the actor's personal style, which further enhanced his uniqueness and individuality. Fans also noted that Dazed Korea changed their Twitter header, commending the magazine on their decision as the actor looked absolutely stunning.

The Legend of the Blue Sea star went with a casual yet chic hairstyle to further highlight his gaze, opting for a neat middle part with a lock of hair brushing across his forehead. The actor flaunted his naturally straight black hair in the cover pictorial, which paired really well with all his outfits and added intrigue to the overall look.


Lee Min-ho has time and again proven himself as a fashion icon, often experimenting with different elements to keep it interesting. For his latest magazine cover, he went with a casual look that had a homey, lived-in feel to it, with loose silhouettes and relaxed poses.
