HUTA, known offstage as BTOB’s Lee Minhyuk, graces the cover of ITTA Magazine Vol. 29, delivering one of his most introspective and visually poetic pictorials to date. Released on October 24, 2025, the issue invites readers into the evolving universe of an artist who continually redefines emotional maturity through image, sound, and presence.​

The concept of this shoot revolves around the passage from boyhood through youth to adulthood — a visual narrative mirrored in Minhyuk’s expressive eyes and nuanced body language. Each frame in the pictorial represents a stage of transformation: innocence, ambition, and serene self-acceptance. The photographer’s lens captures this evolution with an intimacy that feels almost cinematic.​

For his ITTA cover looks, HUTA favors an understated yet meticulously curated aesthetic. In one key outfit, he dons a soft ivory knit with tailored beige trousers — a modern ode to vulnerability. His skin radiates under natural lighting, accentuated by subtle highlighting on the high points of his cheekbones and eyelids. The look is completed with softly tousled brown hair, styled to frame his face with effortless grace.

The second styling transition evokes the vigor of youth: a black leather jacket layered over a semi-sheer shirt, paired with silver accessories that trace his neckline. The makeup artist amps up the attitude with bronzed tones and a smudge of liner to define his intense gaze. His hair, slightly damp and brushed back, gives a sense of motion — echoing the persistence that marks his artistic journey.​

In the most mature look of the set, Minhyuk appears in sharp monochrome tailoring, symbolic of his present self: confident, contemplative, and self-assured. The clean part in his hair and matte nude lips fuse classic refinement with modern sensuality. Every gesture conveys a story of evolution — from idol to artist to introspective man.

This pictorial follows the momentum of Minhyuk’s creative year, which included his second solo concert series HOOK – WHO : KING and a forthcoming Asia tour. Beyond fashion and photography, ITTA Vol. 29 documents the chapters of HUTA’s growth — an ode to artistry illuminated by time, texture, and truth.
