Changbin and Autry Launch Seoul Capsule with Pink Event
K-pop star Changbin debuts his co-designed Autry capsule collection, launched with a pink-themed event in Seoul's Seongsu district.
Autry has officially launched its first capsule collection co-designed with K-pop artist Changbin, who is also the brand's inaugural global ambassador. The collaborative range features two reinterpreted sneaker silhouettes and a line of streetwear, commemorating the partnership.
Changbin described the design process in an official statement provided to the source. "Designing this capsule with Autry was an exciting journey," he said. "It gave me the opportunity to bring my personality and point of view to the brand’s iconic sneakers and apparel." He added that the pieces reflect a balance of strength and playfulness, which he connects to his artistic identity.
Seoul Launch Event Details
To celebrate the release, Autry hosted a special launch event earlier this week in Seoul's Seongsu district. The venue was transformed into a pink-themed space, aligning with the collection's primary accent color and motifs. Guests included friends of the brand and figures from the local creative scene.
The interior design extended the vibrant theme. Soft blush lighting illuminated wall posters bearing the CHANGBIN x AUTRY branding. Vending machines and clothing rails were stocked with items from the collaboration. In a dedicated display area, the remodeled Medalist and Hyperway sneakers were presented on pink pedestals alongside 3-D models of the DWAEKKI tail symbol, a graphic detail featured on the shoes.
A Multi-Sensory Experience
The event was designed as an immersive experience beyond a simple product shows. The space featured photo booths, candy stations, and food platters offering rose-tinted gelato and pink pasta. According to the source report, these refreshments paid tribute to the partnership by blending Autry's Italian heritage with a distinctive K-pop aesthetic. A live DJ set provided the soundtrack as guests interacted with the various activations.
Attendees also received a limited-edition collector's item produced specifically for the launch night.

The CHANGBIN x AUTRY capsule collection is now available for purchase. The source states it can be shopped online and at Autry's global flagship stores.
