Rosé, Ashley Park, Paloma Elsesser, and More Celebrated Sulwhasoo’s Partnership With The Met

Last night at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Sulwhasoo, the South Korean skincare juggernaut, staged a lavish evening to mark its year-long partnership with the museum. The event was co-hosted by the beauty brand’s global ambassadors, including K-pop superstar Rosé from Blackpink, Academy Award-winning actress Yuh-Jung Youn, and Chinese actress Jia Song.

The Met steps were lined with men in burnt amber suits, and as guests—including Paloma Elsesser, LaQuan Smith, Antoni Porowski, Charli XCX, Emily in Paris’ Ashley Park and Paul Forman—made their way through the majestic Temple of Dendur. For the occasion, the entire space was bathed in a warm, radiant glow of the same vibrant hue.

Whitney Dohauser, the deputy director and chief advancement officer of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, expressed her enthusiasm about the joint venture, telling Vogue, “We are delighted to celebrate our year-long partnership with Sulwhasoo, and as we cultivate our shared vision to promote the power of global heritage, we are grateful for their generosity and mission.”

During her opening statement, the Korean-born Yuh-Jung Youn, who won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Minari, made a lighthearted remark about finally being in a room where people knew how to correctly pronounce her name.
