BLACKPINK member Jennie is drawing attention ahead of Chanel’s Seoul presentation of the 2026 Métiers d’art collection, with new Dazed Korea cover images and editorial material released before the May 26 event. The Jennie Chanel Seoul coverage centers on her June 2026 magazine cover project with Chanel and her stated anticipation for the fashion house’s show in Korea.1
Dazed Korea released three cover images on May 19, and additional editorial photos were reported on May 22, placing the magazine project directly in the lead-up to Chanel’s Seoul show. The images were produced with Chanel’s 2026 Métiers d’art collection, connecting Jennie’s fashion editorial to the upcoming presentation rather than to a separate promotional cycle.2

The confirmed material available before the show is focused on Jennie’s Dazed Korea June 2026 cover and interview, not on a completed red-carpet appearance. As of May 24, 2026, the Seoul presentation is still scheduled for May 26, so the available record supports coverage of Jennie’s pre-show appearance in the Chanel project and her comments about the event.
In the interview coverage, Jennie described Chanel as a continuing point of reference in her fashion work. One quoted line from the interview states, “Chanel is still the best brand to me,” translated from the Korean report.1 She also said she felt able to interpret and express the brand more naturally in her own way, a remark that framed the Dazed Korea project as part of a longer relationship with the house rather than a one-off shoot.1
Her remarks also pointed specifically to the Seoul setting. Jennie said she was looking forward to the show because it was a meaningful event being held in Korea after some time, according to the same interview coverage.1 That comment is the clearest source-backed link between Jennie and the May 26 Chanel Seoul show.
Dazed Korea Project Released Before May 26
The Dazed Korea project was rolled out in stages. Newsis reported on May 19 that Jennie fronted the magazine’s June 2026 issue and that Dazed had released three cover images that day.1 Sports Seoul, through Nate Entertainment, reported on May 22 that the pictorial and interview with Chanel had been released through Dazed Korea’s June issue, and that additional photos followed the earlier cover reveal.2
The timing matters because the editorial was planned ahead of Chanel’s 2026 Métiers d’art collection show in Seoul, scheduled for May 26.2 The source material does not provide a full guest list for the Seoul event, nor does it confirm details such as the venue, seating, runway order, or Jennie’s styling for the show itself. What is confirmed is the connection between the magazine project, Chanel’s collection, and the Seoul presentation date.
Chanel and Dazed Korea also have an official microsite titled “CHANEL × DAZED Korea,” carrying the wording “Métiers d’Art Seoul 2026.”3 That official online material supports the broader context for the campaign and presentation, although the available summary does not add new event logistics beyond the project branding.
Chanel’s Métiers d’art Collection Returns in Seoul
The Seoul show is part of the rollout for Matthieu Blazy’s first Chanel Métiers d’art collection. Vogue Korea reported that Chanel planned to present the replica show in Seoul on May 26, 2026, after the collection was first shown on December 2, 2025, at the closed Bowery subway station in New York.4
Time International similarly described the Seoul presentation as the next showing of the CHANEL Métiers d’art 2026 collection after its New York debut. It also noted that the Métiers d’art collection began in 2002 and is dedicated to Chanel’s specialist ateliers and the couturiers of the 31 rue Cambon atelier.5 CE Report reported the same May 26 Seoul presentation date and described the collection as a tribute to Chanel’s artisans and the 31 Rue Cambon atelier couturiers.6
The New York debut was attended by figures including A$AP Rocky, Margaret Qualley, and G-Dragon, according to Vogue Korea’s earlier report.4 That reference places the collection within Chanel’s broader international presentation schedule, while the current Jennie-focused coverage is tied to the Seoul phase through Dazed Korea and Chanel’s associated editorial project.

Jennie’s Chanel Seoul story is therefore best understood as a pre-show fashion and entertainment update: a Dazed Korea June cover project with Chanel, released before the May 26 Métiers d’art 2026 presentation, and supported by her own comments expressing anticipation for the Korean show. Until the event takes place, the confirmed facts remain centered on the editorial release, the official Chanel × Dazed Korea project, and the scheduled Seoul presentation date.
