Park Seo-joon’s latest turn as Park Sae-roy in JTBC’s adaptation of popular web-toon Itaewon Class is undoubtedly one of his best performances to date.

Sweatshirts
In place of overshirts, Sae-roy also has a collection of sweatshirts he circulates between episodes of Itaewon Class. We already see a pattern of colors by now: a mix of cool grays, dark greens, and pops of bright yellow or orange for balance.

Accessories
When it comes to accessories, perhaps Sae-roy’s most iconic looks include his combat boots, his backpack, and his appa’s watch. We’re not surprised at the choices—Park Seo-joon is the ambassador for Montblanc Korea, after all.
