Cha Eun Woo’s Spring Date with Calvin Klein

Calvin Klein’s Spring 2025 campaign star speaks to Men’s Folio in an exclusive interview.

Calvin Klein’s been going through a subtle but significant shift of late — especially with the return of its runway show — and it’s second link-up with man of the moment Cha Eun Woo for its latest Spring 2025 campaign could not demonstrate this better.

Taking cues from the season of renewal, Calvin Klein’s Spring 2025 campaign is a display of timeless tailoring, iconic denim pieces and layering staples — all complete with sleek details and an undeniable a sense of ease. From the Refined Slim Blazer and matching Refined Wool Blend Slim Trousers to classic tees and tanks worn over the signature 90s Straight Jean, there’s an effortlessness that emphasises time and time again the beauty of simplicity; which also perfectly complements the timeless charm and beauty of the actor and singer — every look worn not just classic, but street-ready for years and years to follow.

Scroll through to see the visuals of the collection, all directed and shot by Dai Yamashiro, then read on to see our exclusive behind-the-scenes interview with Cha Eun Woo to learn more about his own approach to dressing: with Calvin Klein, for the different seasons, and when he’s just picking what to wear for himself.

How was shooting the Spring 2025 campaign compared to the Fall 2024 one?
Since the fall campaign was my first, I was a bit nervous. But this time, I felt more comfortable, so I was able to enjoy it even more.

On that note, which season do you most like to dress up for? Why?
Both spring and fall! Especially when the weather is changing, you can layer clothes and have more styling options.

If you could pick one look or clothing item to take home from the campaign shoot, which would it be and why?
It’s been a while since the shoot, so I don’t remember everything clearly, but if I had to pick, I’d choose the black Refined Slim Blazer because the fit was amazing!

How would you describe your personal style?
I like casual and comfortable outfits, but I also enjoy adding a subtle statement piece to complete the look.

How do you think your sense of style has changed over the years? You’ve become much more active in the fashion space in the last half a decade, but it seems you’ve already had an interest in fashion since debut.
I think you notice more as you learn more! When I was younger, I wore things that I chose pieces that were considered “trendy” at that (young) age. Now, I try out dynamic styles and wear what I think looks good based on my own perspective.
