Actor Ji Chang Wook graces the cover of the July 2015 issue of ELLE Men Hong Kong. The 27-year-old star, who will be celebrating his birthday on July 5, is depicted in various styles from British luxury purveyor, Alfred Dunhill. He is dashing in a classic taupe and white houndstooth summer suit, reflecting a European silhouette of business wear.
The Facebook page for ELLE Men Hong Kong prominently features his article. The "Healer" star imparts wisdom on readers, under the premise of defying the charisma myth. "I find pleasure in worrying because when you win after overcoming a fear, the satisfaction is indescribable," said Ji, in his interview with ELLE Men Hong Kong.
While he is prominently depicted in business wear, the photo shoot incorporated some styles that were more relaxed. In a photo shared through ELLE Men Hong Kong's Facebook page, he is styled in a blue denim button-down, paired with white fitted pants and an all-over check jacket.
The selection of clothing from Alfred Dunhill for the feature comes on the heels of his March 2015 Hong Kong visit to represent Asia at a prominent dinner for the brand.
His rise to fame continues, following the meteoric success of the romantic action series, "Healer." The drama helped to raise his profile in China, where his fan base continues to grow. In the ELLE Men Hong Kong article, the writer notes his increased presence throughout Asia and China, comparing his popularity to other Korean stars like Lee Min Ho.
