Seoul, Korea – Currently serving in the military, Kim Nam Gil’s rider jacket that was featured in the drama Bad Guy is the hot item for the fall.

On the 30th, according to fashion brand The Class, the biggest trend in the fall of 2010 is the rock, chick look of the rider jacket, which has already been featured in TV dramas, music programs and many awards shows by celebrities as a must have item.

While rider jackets with different cloths and colors were a trend in spring, the trend for the fall is more on the classic design with black and brown colors.

Kim Nam Gil has broken the image that ‘rider jacket = casual’ and mixed in a look similar to that of an English gentleman by missing in a classic formal outfit with the rider jacket.

A unique aspect of Kim Nam Gil’s jacket was that it was studded on the shoulders and had a simple design with the zippers on the chest and pocket areas. Also, because it is made with high quality glossy leather, it makes for a casual or formal look.

While Kim Nam Gil’s choice to wear black pants with a black jacket may be boring, he makes up for it by wearing a white shirt and necktie to provide focal points for contrast.

The Class remarks “The rocker look of a rider jacket with black jeans and stud accecories may be the total opposite of the classic formal look with a jacket, shirt and a tie, but with a rider jacket instead of the formal one, it makes for a classic gentleman atmosphere with a mix of a rocker, completing the mix and match look.”
