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.

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:)
