a few days back soompi has released an article about a viral trend in Kpop's airport fashion scene. and that can be summed up in 3 letters....M-C-M. For the past few months we've seen idols, stars and singers walk the wide runway of the airport donning what seems to be a simple leather backpack of bright colors with studs and the MCM emblem would actually cost you a minimum of 400 USD supposing you decide to shell out money for one.
EDIT BY Koko: Buy here.
here SOOMPI'S ARTICLE
(I'll post them by type of back pack since some artist have the same model)
MCM X PHENOMENON CAPSULE COLLECTION
Rain still proved himself as the kind of swagger by sporting this limited edition leopard print bag from MCM X PHENOMENON'S SS2011 Capsule Collection
MCM STARK VISETOS BACKPACK(COGNAC)
Again....rain has this bag sharing his slice of MCM heaven is Beast's HyunSeung and the glorious back of JYJ's YooChun.
MCM STARK VISETOS BACKPACK RED
Another Rain owned bag..... although he's not alone in picking red as the type that suits my taste. Rain shares the MCM Red ownership with fellow fashionistas such as GD and Beast's HyunSeung and his young ninja Assasin from J Tune, Lee Joon.
MCM SS2011 STARK VISETOS BACKPACK IN BEIGE
During the launch of MCM's SS2011 line in Seoul a few months back, TVXQ's YunHo was seen sporting the said backpack for the photoups. Maybe he'd thought this bag's good for keeps as he's been seen with this bag almost everywhere.
MCM TETRIS BACKPACK
If it ain't limited it ain't good enough.....TVXQ's ChangMin proved he's now a chic man by carrying this limited edition MCM Backpack. So limited that i am still racking my brains and Google on a buy site for this.
MCM STARK VISETOS IVORY
SNSD's YoonA, CN Blue's YongHwa and SJM's ZhouMi are more on the lighter side of things as they prefer carrying this white piece of MCM goodness.
MCM X PATRICIA FIELD BACKPACK
Well if it isn't our favorite Park siblings in the K-Pop industry. Seriously who's not in love with Dara and CheonDoong's bond? They have the cutest and strongest sibling love for each other that they even manifest it through their choice of MCM goods. CheonDoong and Dara (with the inclusion of Kim Jun in one photo...kkk) are both seen with their MCM X PATRICIA FIELD BACKPACK... Dara's in olive green while CheonDoong has the blue model.
MCM X CRAIG REDMAN PROJECT BACKPACK
Another Special Ed MCM backpack on one of our resident fashionistas....Beast's Junhyung carried this backpack like a tote bag on their way to Japan for the Music Bank Concert in Tokyo.
MCM STARK VISETO BACKPACK IN BLUE
T-ara's resident cutie pie JiYeon looked like a school sans the lunchbox while carrying this piece on the way to Japan.
MCM ANGEL VISETOS BACKPACK IN BLUE
EDIT BY Koko: Buy here.
Secret's Zinger matched the cuteness of her MCM ANGEL VISETOS BACKPACK with her full bangs and baby face.
well there...i'm still a bit lazy to attach the buy links. mainly because i am alternately doing this and reviewing for my upcoming Korean Proficiency Exam (TOPIK) next month. in a matter of days, i'll be adding other artists and their non backpack MCM Stuff.
till next time:)

*koff koff* Thanks very much to Eliza for this post!
I start with the Pinocchio...
Now, I'm not too sure why we didn't post this find, considering we had posted on CL's earrings and I'm pretty sure that every single one of our writers (including me) had an inkling from where it was from. However, Eliza pushed us to finally post it, heh.
2ne1's CL wore the earrings in this pattern.
(click to enlarge)
In the Pinocchio music video, f(x)'s Sulli wore a t-shirt from Ambush X Cassette Playa's SS 2011 collection.
Here.
Now for Krystal's lovely furry jacket that almost everyone proclaimed a fashion disaster! Whee~
(click to enlarge)
Krystal's jacket from Pinocchio promotions was from Jardin de Chouette's S/S 2011 which our dear Suzy from Miss A, walked for at Seoul fashion week. Seems like this is wrong...
I don't have a buylink because I can't read korean...
Now Mona Lisa! Which the joyrich ones were pretty obvious, so shame on us writers for not posting... Mainly me, because I had it all in my folder but never bothered to post it. *sigh* But Eliza pointed out even more finds, so YAY.
(click to enlarge)
MBLAQ's Thunder wore Givenchy's Jacquard-Print Tee (S/S 2011 I think) in their Mona Lisa MV.
Buy here.
MOAR.
(click to enlarge)
Seungho wore Joyrich's Star Studded Motor Jacket from their S/S 2011 collection in the music video.
Many, many, many of our friends have worn it before.
*sigh* By the way, if you were interested in any of the stuff from the Shinee portion of my giant SM post, I shall be updating with buylinks...
MOAR JOYRICH!
(click to enlarge)
Mir wore Joyrich's Stars and Stripes Patch Denim Shorts from their S/S 2011 collection.
No buylink for this joyrich, because it's out of season and all the places I know are out of stock. Please comment if you HAVE a buylink.
And KTZ!
(click to enlarge)
G.O. wore a KTZ tee in the music video as well.
EDIT: Buylink!
My birthday is soon. Hm.

More from the JYP Entertainment (in this case, more precisely J. Tune) family's trip to Taiwan for the Mnet Ultimate Live concert:
Thanks to Miranda who left us a tip on a previous find Nada made! Dressed in casual attire for the flight from Korea to Taiwan, MBLAQ's Mir was spotted with a necklace from General Idea, which Super Junior's Donghae also wore before for a performance. Can be purchased from Korean webstore Ilmostreet (necklace image also from here).
And my find^^ At the airport, Thunder was also seen sporting a backpack from Kokon to Zai. The pattern doesn't seem to be the exact same, but as with any KTZ "Space Column" print item, no two ever really appear to be the exact same. No purchase link found :(

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARIA! ^_^

Request by Phivo - Animal PJ's and more!
For the most part, I found (and Maria found them a looong time ago too) the brand that SHINee was wearing - Their homepage also advertises it.
Here's the picture with all of them -

KeyCoon
MinOg
TaeCken
All found at the original site - SAZAC.
Also - I Couldn't find Thunder's exact Giraffe one, but at SAZAC they sold a giraffe PJ.
ThunRaffe
As with Mir's Bear PJ, somehow all the bear PJ's that I found don;t seem to be his.
A little extra for the PJ's......
JaeSter!
Now for the head pieces -
Joon is wearing a Taiyaki, a popular snack in Japan. It's basically like pancakes with Anko (Adzuki Bean Paste) inside. It's pretty good, when it's not mushy XD.
JoonYaki
This I found on Rakuten, a Japanese site. There is an english version for Rakuten that ships internationally, but I couldn't find this taiyaki there T_T.
but if you do wanna check out the japanese Rakuten, go here and ask me for more info so I can help you with ordering XD.
Also another find from the same exact page, basically.
DaCrab
Go here.
Hope that cleared most of your misteries, Phivo!

I found this picture on Kpop Rants about a week ago. And first thought I was like O_O FELTICS!!
And I was right :D
Thunder on the left is carrying a Feltics Premier Backpack.
Now on to maknae Mir. He is carrying a Feltics Epic Bag.
Oh, look they are matching! XD
As you can probably tell, Mir is carrying the huge gigantic Feltics bag. Pretty big eh?
You can purchase this bag here.

Maria :D
In the vid almost all members wore Henrik Vibskov. A brand many Kpop celebs loves - GD, 2ne1, Wondergirls and now MBLAQ.
MBLAQ does love Bolivia...the pattern type for Henrik Vibskov.
Obeserve below
Mir wears drapes Henrk Vibskov Bolivia Knit Blanket
Leader Yang Seung Ho wears Henrik Vibskov Bolivia mittens.
Lee Joon wears Bolivia pattern knit cardigan.
As you could've seen in the vid G.O wore some Henrik Vibskov too on his jacket collar. It was too hard to CAP it sorry.
