Joy News is reporting that popular American apparel company Forever 21 will be sponsoring the popular drama, "My Fair Lady" starring beautiful Yoon Eun Hye.

With the sponsorship, Forever 21 will be supplying "My Fair Lady" with the wardrobe/accessories for it's female characters.

This is pretty cool but not too surprising, because Forever 21 was started by Korean Americans Do-Won Chang and his wife, Jin Sook in Los Angeles back in 1984. Forever 21 has also supported other Koreans such as BoA in the past as well.

I loled so hard when I went in there and saw them selling BoA's CDs. I didn't know about it being founded by Korean-Americans though, it all makes sense now.

That's why I'm wondering. If I walked in there and saw the CD...I don't think it would make me laugh.

I don't know what's funnier, Forever21 associating themselves with such a flop album or BoA having to resort to selling her CDs in clothing stores.

The first probably, haha.

I think he/she means that it's kinda ridiculous that someone like BoA had to get her name out there by having her CD's sold at some retail store.

yeah I haven't seen it yet either but I was under the impression that Lady Castle = moneyed females, lol. Even JanDi on BOF wore expensive ish and she was supposed to be poor.

Cheap - inexpensive or cheap - poorly made? I shop there from time to time and for the most part it is inexpensive. With some of their items I think someone who doesn't know the shop well would think they cost more. But I don't think I've ever seen anything over $50 and that was a coat. So... yeah.

I guess it doesn't make sense for YEH's character, but maybe the other people will be wearing the stuff?

I love forever 21 but wasn't Yoon Eun Hye's character super wealthy and stylish? I would expect her to wear some high end fashion brands.

I hate when they say that a character is super super rich yet they don't wear any real designer clothes.

I hate how most Forever 21 stores become like a flea market after a while--it's so hard to actually find anything. I always have to shop online whenever I want something from F21.

IKR. the stuff on the mannequins i never find inside the store.


its way better online.

Half of the stuff they have online are not even in the damn stores itself. I remember going to two F21 stores in one day just to find this one shirt and coat that I saw online and they didn't even sell it in BOTH stores. WTF! =_=
I have to shop online too.

ikr? It seems like they're trying to cram everything into each section so you can't pick out the decent stuff :\ I usually just breeze thru, but if I want to find something good I have to look carefully :P I'm not that kind of shopper.

YEH's character seems more of a Balmain, Gucci, Chanel kind of woman rather than an F21 girl.
If she starts wearing F21 clothes on the show it would seem like a downgrade from the outfits we saw on the trailer/s.

Am quite surprised to know that F21 was founded by Korean-Americans. That's pretty cool.

F21 being founded by Koreans totally makes sense - all the fobs in my area get their clothes from there (or... actually... from... Korea...)

From: [identity profile] ruginthesky.livejournal.com
Really? Cool. WOW I didn't know it was started by Korean Americans. I go shopping there or check that store out whenever I'm at the mall. Interesting. Too bad they don't have hot Korean Americans working there.

THANKS in advance. :]
