Mark Tuan is in pain. The K-pop superstar had inadvertently bit his tongue a few days prior to our shoot. Yet ever the trooper, he is all smiles on set, even laughing off his little mishap to push through the pain as he works his way through the Saint Laurent looks we picked out for him. And he carries the clothes beautifully. Mark was a guest at the showcase of this Saint Laurent Spring/Summer ’24 menswear collection in June of last year, where it was held within the glass walls of the Neue Nationalgalerie, an architectural marvel by Mies van der Rohe. Now, dressed in a sheer top with a trailing neck bow, finished off with a broad-shoulder jacket, slim trousers and glossy boots, Mark Tuan is the epitome of modern masculinity. One who is unafraid to assert his own self and expand his creative boundaries (check out his nails!).
The Chinese-American artist finds himself in Kuala Lumpur for the second time in one month, this time to attend the opening of the YSL Beauty boutique in The Exchange TRX, following the KL stop of his the other side concert tour just three weeks prior. The singer, dancer, songwriter, musician extraordinaire has been on a whirlwind adventure since taking time off from his group GOT7, to release his solo debut, the full-length English album the other side, in August of 2022. The 15-stop North American leg of his tour would follow suit through October and November that year, taking him to Dallas, Philadelphia, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles among other major cities in the US.
Having concluded the Asian stops of the other side world tour in Seoul last February, Mark will now take to the stage in Europe and Latin America beginning this May. BAZAAR sits down with the artist to talk about his personal evolution, his album and why the MYSLF fragrance by Yves Saint Laurent is reflective of who he truly is.
