Earlier, Elle Korea revealed that BTS’ Kim Tae-hyung has joined Park Bo-gum and BLACKPINK’s Lisa as French luxury brand CELINE’s new ambassador.

From this year onwards, the Sweet Night singer will be making appearances, shooting for commercials, and serving as the international face of the French luxury brand.
