Getting a magazine cover is a huge achievement for an idol. It marks a special moment in their career, and as fans, why wouldn’t we want to celebrate that? Magazine shoots also give idols the opportunity to explore new stylings and artistic concepts outside of their typical look, so collecting magazines is kind of like curating your own little library of unique, creative photobooks.
If you follow me on IG (@wonybara), you know that I love collecting IVE Annyeongz magazines. But with extortionate EMS, customs, domestic shipping, as well as inflated reseller prices, this quickly became a painfully expensive hobby for me.
So I started looking for better, cheaper ways to get the magazines I wanted, and I realised I could also help others do the same, and that's how Wonybara Magazines began!
Wonybara Magazines is a for-profit project. For now, all profits will go towards covering the costs of starting and running the shop. If you have any questions about this at all, please feel free to ask.
I hope that Wonybara Magazines will make magazine collecting more accessible, more affordable, and a lot more fun within the BST community!
