Lee Junki’s album cover

 
Discuss.


The question is: What do you call this, exactly? Is it a li’l bit glam rock, a li’l bit ’70s porn star, a li’l bit albino elf?

Actor Lee Junki (Time of Dog and Wolf, My Girl) recently released a teaser video for his upcoming music video, “J Style,” and now he’s released the artwork for his album jacket. Apparently the concept behind the photo shoot was an homme fatale who combines angel with devil. (Psst, I don’t see how this is either “homme” or “fatale.”)

You’ve gotta hand it to the guy to be bold and ballsy with his style. He’s got a lot of ideas and he uses them to full attention-getting effect. (Too bad I hate all his ideas, but I’m sure somebody out there likes this look… I think?)

Lee Junki will hold his “Episode 2” fan concert on April 18, and will be releasing his solo album in time for the event.

Wow, leave it to him to come up with a creative yet at the same time creepy album cover. I'm not sure what his angle is but if it's about catching people's eyes, he definitely win :D

I'm assuming it was a make-up artist's dream to do this look, but for most of the world this is the freakiest thing ever. But I guess it's not too bad when you compare it to a lot of visual kei artists... but it comes close.

*Sigh*... honestly, after seeing his teaser and pictures, i like his stuff more than actual real singers...

too bad this is for his fan-concert...

i would LOVE if there was an actual k-pop singer like him... bold and fresh and yeah.. refreshing. whether you like the style or not, it's more interesting than the average stuff that gets put out and much different. I hope others take inspiration from him (How I wish he really debuted as a singer! And i dont usually care for actors making their music debut -.-)

And doesnt he make single lids look awesome XD

And he reminds me of a silk white bjd doll *o*
Perfect snow skin and light lips with those bjd doll eyes (actually there is a real bjd based after him >.<)

There's something a bit off with these pictures. I think it could have been a cool concept but the makeup comes off a bit amaturish. Sigh, its almost interesting.

This is a complete turn around from the released teaser. Lee Junki sure knows to create... hype, for better lack of word. I'm interested to see what he brings back to the scene. I never heard his music before so I'm all ears.

His picture just throws me off. XD Why couldn't he go for the manly look? LOL.

I think Lee Junki has a pretty decent singing voice (and I really did like his rapping when he worked with Hyori on "AnyStar"), but this is way too much. Couldn't he have just gone down the regular non-flashy route so I could take him seriously?! His music video teaser is basically Rainism Part II, minus Rain.

I dont know what to say.. Speechless... I like him. I think he is a potential actor, not sure about him as a singer. I never listen to his song, so no comment. BUT the photojacket is freak me out.. >,<...

As like a magazine editorial I might like it.... Well that's a bit of a stretch too. But I don't hate it.

I have NEVER found the appeal of Lee Jun Ki. Is he really that cute??? He looks awfully feminine to me. But anyhow, he sure knows how to market himself and make people discuss about him.

I like the album cover a lot. I don't think it looks attractive on him, but it gets my attention. It doesn't just catch my eye when I glance over the post; I can't take my eyes off of it. The upper body shot is my favorite picture out of the ones posted. He looks very rock n roll.

i do not like this...at all. It looks like some david Bowie schizz out of 1977. But i gotta give it to him, he is incredibly attention getting. Props Lee Junki, props.

he reminds me of that lady from the 80s who sang "I looove rock and roll...so put another dime in the jukebox baby!" (Joan Jett??) ....dont know why o_O

he looks like he could be in one of those hair bands from the 80s with all the tranny makeup...

he looks.....odd

edit:
maybe he was trying to look like a prettier L (from Death Note)

Wowzers.

I dunno...the more I stare at it, the more I think it looks kinda cool. I mean, as long as he doesn't go out in public looking like this...why not?

I think it is rather "Cirque de Soleilesque"- sort of a walking, talking, breathing surrealist painting, if you will. I think it is rather artistic. I think Lee Jun Ki is one the more talented pretty boys of his generation.

I'm surprised only a few mentioned Lady Gaga. So not that many heard of her? He's definitely channeling her style.

sippycup: "There’s something a bit off with these pictures. I think it could have been a cool concept but the makeup comes off a bit amaturish. Sigh, its almost interesting."

Word. The concept is weird enough as it is but the badly done makeup makes you not take it whatever it's packaging seriously. Like a kid having fun with his mom's makeup set or a bunch of face paints.

I absolutely agree, his MV, is totally like Rainism.

And those pictures, are indeed attention grabber scary. Ish.
( but I believe A LOT of people like it..so do the hardcore fans. )

“an homme fatale who combines angel with nightmare.” not Femme? because I'm still jealous of him, being more pretty and feminine than me. :P

"‘kay. the man needs to get himself in a drama NOW."

Haha, yes! But I'm pretty sure he's somewhat serious about singing/dancing, unfortunately. His concept? He looks like an anime character of some sort, like a spirit or ghost who's ready to sing some k-pop ballads and then bust out sum poppin' and lockin'. Oh dears.

Jun ki is one gorgeous man. He can pretty much pull off anything even if its absolutely ridiculous (such as above).

Ah, the look one gets when one's skiing on a bunny slope of cocaine. Lee Jung Ki, you dear thing!

Above the neck says "Lee Jung Ki and the Replicants." We are the wild ones, running with the dogs today!!

Below the neck says "Iljimae and Fat Elvis performing Suspicious Minds together in Heaven" We are the pigs, we are the swine.

I'm not sure if Pepsi endorses Lee Jung Ki as glam boy wipe out. But above or below neck, I love it. I absolutely love it. But I imagine the music's nothing like that. Nope, no jean genie rockers for the modern boys.

THIS IS NO WAY HAPPENING.

WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

This album cover is
1. no way near appealing
2. way too intimidating
3. perhaps the only way to attract attention for himself.

VAINITY.

at first glance i thought he was going for a kabuki actor look but from the descriptions, i guess not. shouldn't a homme fatale be luring people in with his charms and not scaring them away? ._.

hmmm...I've been thinking about this. Maybe this look would work as a photoshot in a magazine but as album art it isn't quite polished enough. Maybe its the pink lips that are bothering me, they don't fit the whole black and white theme.

We need the cirque du soliel make up artist stat!

It's Pris from Bladerunner to me. And he looks lovely as always.
Truly the prettiest man alive.

And just think when Ziggy Stardust came out... this is nothing.
I hope LJK is able to rock his look.
