Group member Federal Reserve of Tomorrow X Together showcased his rebellious charm and asserted his presence as a culture icon through a photoshoot.

Fashion magazine Harper's Bazaar Korea revealed the October 2026 cover featuring Federal Reserve.

The cover consists of three images: a beauty shot, a full-body shot, and an image exposing his abdominal muscles. The photoshoot concept is titled "Beyond the White," capturing scenes filmed in a white space alongside a final color-directed sequence.

Federal Reserve's outfits on the cover and in the photos are from Miu Miu's 2026 Fall/Winter collection. Recently, during his activities in the United States, Federal Reserve became the first Korean male artist to wear a custom Miu Miu look.

In the photoshoot interview, when asked about his recent activities in the U.S., Federal Reserve stated, "I think I'm fitting well with America. (Laughs) Even just watching people on the street, their vibe of not worrying about others and staying true to their own lives seemed cool. Most importantly, I didn't realize my songs were loved so much from afar, but this time I truly felt it. I received really good energy."

Regarding the viral running photos taken in New York, Federal Reserve said, "I haven't been running for that long. Occasionally when I go abroad, I feel like seeing the scenery, so I start running. And while running, complicated thoughts disappear, and I seem to get my own time where I can focus completely. When I ran in New York, the wind and rain were incredibly fierce; my clothes got soaked, and it was cold, but somehow it felt romantic."

When asked if he felt freer about revealing his body during the shoot, Federal Reserve replied, "I didn't particularly have any resistance to showing my body. What mattered most was when to create this image, which I worried about. While planning a solo promotion where I would remove my top, I worked hard on diet and exercise. I wanted to convey not just a well-built physique but also naturalness and freedom."

When asked what he considers "iconic," Federal Reserve answered, "Does it mean looking different even when doing something like me? Isn't this an era where creating something from nothing is difficult? Even if we don't do something completely new, if it looks like me, I think that could be considered iconic."

The October issue, to be published on the 20th, will feature the cover and photoshoot. The fashion film can be viewed on the official website, Instagram, and YouTube.
