TOMORROW X TOGETHER member Beomgyu is expanding his activities in Japan beyond music to include broadcasting, digital content and fashion, raising his local profile.
TOMORROW X TOGETHER (Soobin, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, Hueningkai) proved their strong local popularity by topping major charts such as Oricon and Billboard Japan with their fifth Japanese single released last August. As the group steadily builds its presence in Japan, Beomgyu is also attracting attention by standing out in various fields through individual activities.
On stage he captures fans' hearts with music and performance, and off stage he broadens his connections with the public through his friendly charm and sophisticated visuals. He completes content with Japanese stars and has been chosen as a cover model for fashion magazines, among other things, demonstrating that offers across various fields beyond music reflect Beomgyu's local influence.
On the 8th, Beomgyu had a special meeting by appearing on the YouTube channel of Japanese singer and actor Nakajima Kento. The two share the same birthday, March 13, a fact that became a topic of interest among fans in both countries. After sharing photos and videos taken together and maintaining their friendship, this time they met at the HYBE Yongsan headquarters to play games and talk, spending a unique time together.
In the video, the two showed unexpected chemistry as they enjoyed games and had candid conversations in a relaxed, natural atmosphere. Global fans, including those in Korea and Japan, reacted enthusiastically with comments such as "a meeting of top stars" and "healing from the two's harmless charm."
His broadcasting activities continue. Beomgyu will appear in "Miraculous trip in Fukuoka," which will be released on the Japanese streaming platform Hulu on Oct. 3. He will embark on a special trip with leading Japanese actor Kitamura Takumi, showing moments of enjoying leisure away from busy daily life.
Especially since the meeting came about because Beomgyu named Kitamura Takumi as the "person he most wanted to see," interest is growing in what special chemistry the two will create through the trip. Fans can also expect to see Beomgyu's unadorned charm, different from his intense stage persona.
Beomgyu's activities in fashion also continue. He was chosen as the cover model for the December special issue of Japanese fashion magazine Numero TOKYO. In this pictorial he will showcase his own tasteful style together with the Italian luxury brand Marni, displaying his charm as a fashion icon.
Meanwhile, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, of which Beomgyu is a member, resumed its own content "TO DO" (TO DO X TXT) on the 7th, continuing meetings with fans. "TO DO" is content loved for its editing that highlights topics familiar to Gen Z and the five members' personalities, and it has enjoyed steady popularity with the label "Gen Z variety."
"TO DO" (TO DO X TXT) is released every Monday at 9 p.m. on TOMORROW X TOGETHER's official YouTube channel.
