Tohoshinki’s Changmin is on “Elle Japon” for the first time. He challenges the modeling of the edgy mod style, and we go behind the scenes for this fashion shoot! We’ll also be exposing secret photos taken from the shoot!


Changmin, who arrives 15 minutes before the shoot. (He looks unsure?) His own outfit for the day…black T-shirt and skinny pants. On his feet, a modern looking pair of buckled boots. This is undoubtedly a good style, tight and simple, and the staff’s expectations are high!


The shooting location, a gallery and event space set up in the middle of “Urahara”, called “VACANT BY NO IDEA.” Using old materials and vintage items to create a warm feel, it also accommodates a delicious vegan café, a definite stop while shopping!


Actually, before the Elle shoot, Changmin went to the Chanel Fashion show. (This photo was taken during that time.) The staff asked him about the talking point of that day, and he gestured his answer, which was the stole.


Also because this was immediately after the show, when entering the photoshoot location, the “Chanel” show was still a topic. “I’ve only watched one fashion show in China previously, but this Chanel show was definitely a highlight. The snowy mountain setting, and the use of fur on the clothing, just looking at it was enjoyable!” he said.


Changmin is wearing the best collection from the brands this season for the photoshoot. In the rack, from Prada to Bottega Veneta, Raf Simons and such top of the line clothes are on standby.


Changmin’s preparation starts immediately. Sitting at the special makeup stand, talking to the hair and makeup people, looking very relaxed. Then, he studied the “Elle Japon” magazine, paying special attention to the overseas celebrity snapshots.


For the first cut, he wore a military jacket from Burberry Prorsum, to fit the chic Autumn fashion, Changmin’s expression had a gentle, mature look.


Although it seemed like the first cut was rather painful, once away from the camera his healthy, real smile appeared, and he generously posed for this camera.


The second cut challenged was Raf Simons. Changmin’s first reaction was, “A skirt!?” and was bewildered, but after he tried it, it fit nicely. The staff around too agreed that it wasn’t just anyone who could suit such clothes, and with the compliments, his look became more confident.


With the photographer Shingo Wakagi, he breezed through the second half. While looking at the polariod samples, Changmin works hard to absorb the detailed requests and advice.


Wearing the Bottega Veneta Racer Jacket, he showed a bit of a defiant look. The rocker style was arranged, and his “regent hair” a point to note. But there is a gap between this style and the usually “good youth” Changmin.


Between the shoot, Changmin kept doing tennis serving actions. 3 days before the shoot, he had an idea and started lessons, and is completely obsessed. Before that, he was also hooked on bowling, and was enjoying the chat, asking questions like “Do you have a new best score?”


From this shoot, the staff could see the change in model quality in Changmin. Of course, his style is good, and his movement and expression were also great. His look, and the way his exquisite hand movements, we were surprised that he wasn't that different from a professional model!


For the special centerspread, a look from Prada was selected. "This is a styling i like! Knit layered on top of shirt is GOOD." said Changmin. Being wrapped in knit, a warm expression appears in this cut. This was also the most popular in among the editorial department!


Until the last cut, Changmin still did his polaroid checks, he is truly serious about his work! Incidentally, in the hair department, the "soft-perm" styling received good response from the staff.


Also, these are the polaroids that he was checking. Before the actual shoot, these were used to check the lighting and concept. In the September issue of "Elle Japon," we will be giving away Changmin's autographed polaroids to 3 lucky people, please check it out!


The shoot ended successfully and the we go straight into the interview. It's been 2 months since his last visit to Japan, "Although I've been waiting to come back, but I can't speak Japanese!(anymore)" he lamented while replying. At some point, he tried to say "Hone Ni Itakunaru"(My bones are hurting) but instead said "Kotsu No Itakunaru", using the wrong pronunciation,* causing everyone to burst into laughter.

*T/N: "Bone" = "Hone" in Japanese. Another way of pronouncing it is "Kotsu", which actually means "Skill"



Meanwhile, on the drama that Changmin is starring in, that has been much talked about in Japan as well, he said "Because it hasn't be aired yet, I cannot talk about it". When asked if he could just tell us how he and his character are alike, "He is a B-type like me. Which means that we're the type that goes all out for what we want.(Laughs)"


Then, when asked about his usual fashion policies, he replied "There is nothing flashy, its a simple style which revolves around denim. And I add hats, sunglasses or other small accessories."

The interview details and Changmin's intimate fashion story can be found on 8 pages in the September issue of Elle Japon!

Can you please edit the text, it's not Burberry Blouson it should be Burberry Prorsum. Translation error/fashion ignorance.
