Indeed Magazine Volume 2 April 2019 Review

I'm happy to be able to have one last post for 2021, all thanks to a surprise gift that arrived today^^ I'll be blogging about the magazine Indeed, Volume 2! This post isn't so much of a review of the magazine as a whole, more so me fangirling over Jaehyun...

Indeed is a Korean fashion trends magazine that began in late 2018 and currently has 15 volumes (numbered 0 through 14) as of the end of 2021. Of these 15 volumes, Golden Child members have appeared in 5 volumes, starting with Bomin in Volume 1 (this being the first solo magazine shoot for any Golden Child member) and then Jaehyun in Volume 2. Volume 2 in particular is also Jaehyun's second solo magazine photoshoot. I've admired the official photos released online from this volume since its first release, and I'm so happy that I have a physical copy in my collection now.

My magazine came in a clear resealable bag. The featured cover model is NU'EST's Baekho; I really like how there are few idols in this magazine and they each get quite a few pages.

I really like the size and feel of the magazine! The dimensions are 9.5" by 6.75" by 0.25". Here you can see the magazine (in between Game Changer and YES.) is about the same thickness but slightly taller than Golden Child's Pump It Up, YES., and Game Changer albums. The magazine cover is matte and slightly thick, like a paperback book, and the pages inside are matte as well like a notebook.

Here are the table of contents, with Jaehyun on the far right^^

And here is the start of Jaehyun's pictorial, titled "Denim". His section contains 10 pages. The time when he had really long hair~~ Aah he really pulls off this look SO WELL and I really don't like denim on denim but I'm all for it here, he just looks so cool!

I was a bit surprised that the photo on the right is out of focus...as much as I love artistic creativity, there is only so much real estate in this magazine that I'd want the highest quality photos^^

Official photos from Jaehyun wearing this outfit were never released (that I know of) so I was shocked when I first turned to this page! I honestly thought I had already went through all of Jaehyun's pictorial but omg wow these photos are so pretty! 

Another thing that I like about this magazine (at least this volume) is that it is heavily focused on photos rather than text. For someone who isn't fluent in Korean, this is perfect so that I can make the most out of the provided content.

And here are the last 2 pages of Jaehyun's pictorial.

Overall, I'm beyond satisfied with this magazine! I love that Jaehyun's pictorial used 5 different outfits that displayed his versatility as a model in how he interacted with his surroundings and his clothes. I hope Golden Child continues being featured in magazines to showcase a different side of themselves^^
