Subin of TOMORROW X TOGETHER graced the cover of Elle Korea for the fashion magazine’s 33rd anniversary project, which teamed 12 stars with 22 pets. In the shoot, Subin is photographed with three retired quarantine-detection dogs awaiting private adoption, bringing a warm, intimate mood to the autumn-inspired styling.

Elle Korea released the cover images on its official social channels, and Subin’s look featured a gray coat and glasses that conveyed a soft, sophisticated feel. In a subsequent interview, Subin shared his affection for the dogs, saying, “I hope these loving friends are always cared for and find a good family.” He added that he has spent his youth serving the country and hopes to find a family capable of continuing the responsibility.

He also reflected on his childhood dream of living with dogs, emphasizing the weight of bringing animals into life and urging those contemplating pet ownership to think carefully before welcoming a pet into their lives. He stated, “This is a huge responsibility, and I think many people should consider it carefully before bringing a pet home.”

More photos and the full interview can be found in Elle Korea’s November issue (Vol. 2) and the magazine’s official site and social channels.

Meanwhile, Subin’s group TOMORROW X TOGETHER released their Japanese studio album Starkissed on the 22nd and is currently active in Japan. The album topped Oricon’s daily album rankings on its first day and has remained near the top for five consecutive days. The group will launch a five-city, 10-show dome tour in Japan starting in November, with dates in Saitama (Nov 15–16), Aichi (Dec 6–7), Fukuoka (Dec 27–28), Tokyo (Jan 21–22, 2026), and Osaka (Feb 7–8). They were among the fastest K-pop acts to reach Japan’s four major domes, and this tour aims to demonstrate the enhanced scale and stage storytelling prowess of the group.
