K-pop star Mingyu is teaming back up with Calvin Klein for a new denim campaign.

The 28-year-old, a member of supergroup Seventeen, stars in the brand’s Fall 2025 denim campaign, which launched Tuesday morning. He teamed up with the brand for their Fall 2024 denim campaign as well.

Mingyu sports a variety of looks throughout the campaign’s images and video, including new denim which features the CK’s emblem print in a reinterpretation of Calvin Klein’s signature monogram, according to a release, that brings a “clean” and “graphic” edge to jeans and trucker jackets. He also sports the brand’s iconic 90s straight jean in vintage and dark washes, along with the slim jean, the carpenter jean and the 90s taper jean.

This is the K-pop star’s second Calvin Klein campaign this year. “I think that Calvin Klein is a brand that everybody, regardless of age, loves and enjoys,” he previously told The Hollywood Reporter about shooting his first campaign with the brand last year. “I know what a strong presence the brand has in front of the general public, so I was really nervous about whether I could be the best fit for the brand, and whether I could embody the identity of the brand properly.”

In an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Mingyu shooting the campaign, the rapper looks effortlessly cool posing for the camera in a variety of denim looks. He previously told THR that the Calvin Klein staff on his first shoot were “very kind and encouraging.”

Mingyu and his group Seventeen celebrated their 10th anniversary in May, dropping a new album, Happy Burstday. The group spoke with THR about the anniversary and album in a cover story tied to its release, where they looked on about their path to the top of global pop and ahead to their future as a group, with military enlistment on the horizon for most members. The group also recently announced their latest world tour, which is heading to the U.S. in October.

The campaign, which officially launched Tuesday, will continue rolling out on Calvin Klein’s social channels throughout the week. See more photos from the campaign below.
