ELLE Korea’s November 2025 issue, celebrating the magazine’s 33rd anniversary, honors warmth, connection, and the love shared with animals through its “Hello Little Love” cover project—an ensemble pictorial featuring some of Korea’s most luminous stars. This theme spotlights “Life with animals—an everyday, natural bond,” and marks the first time ELLE’s signature covers have combined renowned celebrities with beloved pets for a purposefully intimate showcase.​

Uhm Jung Hwa, famed for her boundary-pushing style and radiant confidence, stands out effortlessly in sculptural high-fashion looks and poised poses that evoke old-school goddess energy. In her ELLE shoot, she channels refined modern minimalism and timeless glamour, with slicked-back hair styling and soft, glowing makeup that reveals her powerful cheekbones and signature luminous skin. Code Kunst adds a cool urban edge with understated tailoring and textured separates, exuding effortless chic through tousled hair and fresh, dewy makeup for a musical auteur vibe.​

TWICE’s Jeongyeon and Tzuyu appear together, projecting warmth and approachability beside their dogs Peanut, Yuki, Kaya, and Butter. Jeongyeon’s look balances a boyish short haircut with gentle petal-pink makeup, soft blush, and natural brows—amplifying her charismatic presence. Tzuyu stuns with sleek long hair, luminous skin, and striking cat-eye makeup, echoing her poised beauty and versatility. Their styling infuses cozy knits and soft textures with playful accessories, expressing sincerity and personal comfort.​

Seventeen’s Seungkwan shares emotional moments with his dog Bookkeu within a tranquil hanok-inspired setting, dressed in relaxed neutral tones that reflect everyday sophistication. His fresh-cut hair and natural makeup reinforce the pictorial’s theme of unscripted, heartfelt connection. TXT’s Soobin wows with effortless modernity, relaxed fit silhouettes, and understated urban style—a look completed by gently tousled hair and natural glass-skin makeup.​

Yim Siwan, Car, the garden, Loco, and KISS OF LIFE’s Natty and Belle round out the feature with looks ranging from tailored elegance to whimsical streetwear, each styled to highlight personality—soft textures, muted tones, playful details, and glowing, minimalist makeup.

ELLE’s “Hello Little Love” issue captures a rare fusion of superstars and their companion animals, blending high fashion with heartfelt stories and relatable warmth for an unforgettable editorial moment.
