BTS V graces British magazine cover... sweeping number one spots in Korean and Japanese bookstores

BTS V is recording high sales in domestic and international bookstores as he graces the cover of the British fashion magazine ‘DAZED’ for its Autumn 2026 issue. According to media reports, immediately after the pictorial and interview were released on September 10, the magazine took the overall number one spot in the foreign books category at domestic online bookstores such as Yes24 and Aladdin.

The reaction in the Japanese market is also explosive. Not only did it reach number one in the Rakuten magazine category daily rankings, but in the Qoo10 K-pop magazine and photo book category, V's cover swept 7 out of the top 10 rankings. This pictorial is the result of a shoot conducted by V in his capacity as a Celine global ambassador during Paris Fashion Week this past July.

DAZED editor-in-chief Ted Stanfield highly evaluated V's modeling capabilities, praising him as "someone born for the stage." Meanwhile, through this DAZED cover, V has set a record as a Korean star who has graced the covers of major British fashion magazines, joining his previous participation in ‘POP’ magazine.
