The members KIHYUN, HYUNGWON of the group MONSTA X have been selected as models for a beauty brand.

The derma-cosmetic brand Celimax recently unveiled a photoshoot featuring KIHYUN and HYUNGWON, selected as the brand’s very first models.
In the published photoshoot, KIHYUN and HYUNGWON each reveal a different charm in a natural setting blending soft bedding and natural light, demonstrating a presence worthy of “masters of the photoshoot.”
KIHYUN created a bright and pure atmosphere by maximizing his youthful side with a radiant and refreshing smile, while HYUNGWON highlighted a “ideal boyfriend” charm with a calm and warm ambiance, showing a visually perfect image. Selected as the first national models for Celimax, the two artists attracted attention by creating strong synergy with an atmosphere that is both pure and refreshing.

Since his military discharge, KIHYUN has pursued a wide range of activities in music, entertainment shows, and original soundtracks. Last February, after completing his service, he reaffirmed his unique vocal abilities on major festival stages such as SOMEDAY PLEROMA 2025 and PEAK FESTIVAL 2025, and presented a deeper musical color through the OST “Surf” from the SBS drama “The winning try“.
KIHYUN also showcased his “sexy man who cooks” charm on the E-channel entertainment show “Mr Eo’s Food World Tour“. Recently, he has attracted attention with his warm comments as a judge on the audition program “Global Veiled Musician“, released on Netflix.
HYUNGWON has also expanded his activities further since his military discharge. Last May, right after his demobilization, he proved his excellent hosting abilities as MC of the Asia Star Entertainer Awards 2025 (ASEA), and revealed various charms on the web entertainment show “Syuming’s Ramen Shop“, as well as on the Japanese music program TBS CDTV Live! Live!. On the 20th of this month, in the newly released SBS international web entertainment show “또로라 (Ttorora)“, he received positive reactions from fans worldwide thanks to his unique sense of humor.
MONSTA X, to which KIHYUN and HYUNGWON belong, proved its irreplaceable presence this year through various activities on the occasion of their 10th debut anniversary. Last July, they successfully held the 10th-anniversary commemorative concert “2025 MONSTA X CONNECT X” at the KSPO DOME (Olympic Gymnasium). Starting December 12 (local time) at Madison Square Garden in New York, they will also join the “2025 IHEARTRADIO JINGLE BALL TOUR”, performing in a total of four cities.
Recently, MONSTA X gained attention from Forbes in the United States, NME in the United Kingdom, etc., with the release of the American digital single “BABY BLUE” on the 14th. Their future path, unfolding through various activities in Korea and internationally, is drawing attention.
