IN CONVERSATION WITH JUNIOR CHOI Interview: DYLAN O’CONNOR
Choi - Leggo. Dylan O’Connor - You ready? Yeah. DO: Okay cool. I always start the interview like this. For the people that may not know you, who are you and what do you do? Junior Choi, Born and raised London, UK. ModelRapperEntrepreneur. DO: Okay, so how did you get into the world of fashion, who introduced you to this culture? Probably my city, it was always interesting experiencing different atmospheres and cultures around the city it allowed me to mix and match how I’d dress for the day depending on where I’m headed. DO: So what made you decide you wanted to be a model? Choi - I was approached a few times by random people/a few friends asking if I was or telling me that I should get into it, I got scouted one day at work a couple years ago and now we here. DO: Were you sceptical at first when you were scouted or did you feel comfortable? Choi - I done my research and felt comfortable. DO: Who inspires you to do what you do whether it’s rapping, modelling etc.? I don’t really have any inspirations. I just like the idea of doing whatever I wanna do and appreciate every box that’s ticked. DO: You said that growing up in London city introduced you to the world of fashion, what did you wear when you were younger or was dressing something you didn’t care about back then? I was slapped in Gap jumpers and dungarees as a kid hahaha. Been cosy ever since. DO: So now that we know you were interested in clothes from a young age, when did you know modelling wasn’t just a hobby and you could actually have a career in this industry? Last year I realised it’s more than just shoots and runways. It’s the experiences in different countries with people I’ve just met, communication skills and opportunities everywhere I turn. That’s when it turned into something I could see myself doing full time. DO: So this isn’t just to “pass the time” or “have fun for a while”, you can actually see yourself sticking to this? It’s what I’m fucking with for the moment. As soon as I’m bored of it we’re moving onto the next. DO: How did you feel modelling for Dsquared? That’s major. Pretty cool, it’s a brand a lot of my guys wear back at home so it was a good feeling walking for them. My look was crazy too. [The twins know how to put on a good show.] DO: So what’s been the highlight in your career then? Walking for Givenchy and shooting Ports campaign in Morocco. Both experiences were completely different but crazy to take in. DO: What was going through your head during when you were walking for Givenchy? Damn, this is an actual show hahaha. DO: Okay. Rapid fire. Hit me. DO: Favourite artist? J Hus/Rocky. DO: Favourite designer and why? Represent, I’ve been fucking with them for 5 years plus, they’re brothers to me now and everything they drop rings cosy in my ears. DO: Controversial...feelings about hypebeasts? They’re doing them. It’s cool how it’s kind of a culture now but if they’re getting their money then props to them. DO: Okay, that’s the rapid-fire out the way. So this question is actually from someone who works at Slyde. They want to know how you feel about androgynous fashion since you’ve been seen wearing Rick Owens? Statements, I love the way Rick can express his mind in his clothing and that to me is a statement. We’ve seen many different types of races, cultures and body types thanks to people like Kanye West with his la<strong>test</strong> YEEZY SEASON campaign but of course, the whole industry isn’t like that.
