The designer bags Hye-ri carried in My Roommate Is A Gumiho
From Bottega Veneta to Valextra, these are the luxury bags spotted on Hye-ri in the popular Korean drama
By Donson Chan -
Available on iQiyi, My Roommate Is A Gumiho is a recent Korean drama obsession for many of us. The show tells of a romance between Jang Ki-yong, who plays a 999-year-old gumiho (or nine-tailed fox), and Hye-ri, an innocent college student who accidentally swallows a fox bead.
Plot aside, we're also loving the fashion spotted on Hye-ri, especially the bags. Here, we've rounded up the designer bags Hye-ri carried in the drama, for your viewing pleasure.
Episode 1: Hye-ri carrying Bottega Veneta Mini BV Classic Shoulder Bag, $3,000
At the end of the first episode, Hye-ri went to a nightclub to party after being invited by one of her college classmates. She deliberately changed into the Faith Connexion strapless tweed top and leggings that her mother sent her, and paired it with the Bottega Veneta Mini BV Classic bag.
Episode 2: Hye-ri carrying Loewe Small Horseshoe Bag in Nappa and Calfskin, $2,400
After having fried chicken and beer with her friends, Hye-ri mistakenly identified the candy on the floor as the beads of the nine-tailed fox. In this scene, the bag she's carrying is Loewe Horseshoe.
In My Roommate Is A Gumiho, Hye-ri's style leans towards a preppy, collegiate look. This diamond-patterned cardigan and jeans are matched with an angular Burberry TB bag.
On an outing with Jang Ki-yong, Hye-ri carried the Bottega Veneta Arco bag, which is actually from her own collection. She shared about the bag in a vlog from last August.
Played by Jang Ki-yong, the nine-tailed fox has the ability to teleport anywhere instantly. In the scene where he took Hye-ri to the museum in the middle of the night, she wore the Camera bag from the French label Lemaire. She also carried the bag in episode 4.
For a college student, the bags Hye-ri carries are considerably luxe. Take a look at this Valextra bag for example. Though the brand sports a low-key design with no obvious logo, fans would still recognise it at a glance. Perhaps this is a reason why many women have started adding Valextra to their collection.
After discovering Jang Ki-yong's first love by accident, Hye-ri became sullen and upset. In this scene, the "school bag" she's carrying is Loewe's classic Hammock bag.
