Introducing Issue 53:
Kinfolk has published a Korean edition of the magazine for the last 10 years, run a community space in the heart of Seoul for the last five, and, more recently, has hosted a slate of pop-ups in some of the city’s most enthralling neighbourhoods. Inside Issue Fifty-Three, our team draws on this deep-rooted connection to reveal the slower side of Seoul. You’ll find over forty pages dedicated to the best the Korean capital has to offer: our favourite neighbourhoods, coffee shops and bakeries, natural wine bars, restaurants, local fashion brands, museums and galleries, plus surprising information you won’t find elsewhere — like the best place for late-night fried chicken. Elsewhere in the issue, we visit climates more tropical. In West Africa, we tour a handcrafted, bohemian home in Lagos that has been lovingly preserved. Farther down the coast, in Abidjan, we meet Rym Beydoun — founder of the underground fashion label Super Yaya. And our fashion editorial, shot in Sao Paulo by photographers Mar + Vin, captures siblings Mahany and Danyllo Pery striking poses that nod to the work of Malian artist Malick Sidibe.
192 pages, offset-printed and perfect bound, full color on uncoated and coated paper. Printed in United Kingdom.
