Controversial Beauty for this Ferrari K-Pop
- Published on 19/01/2026 18:08
Ferrari unveils an astonishing 12Cilindri Tailor Made, a unique model celebrating contemporary South Korean culture.
This exceptional creation embodies a certain vision of the marriage between tradition and innovation, combining local craftsmanship with Ferrari’s know-how to offer an exceptional GT.
The project brought together the talents of four South Korean artists – Dahye Jeong, Hyunhee Kim, GRAYCODE, and jiiiiin – the Ferrari Styling Centre, and COOL HUNTING, a platform specialized in design, culture, and technology. Together, they translated the cultural energy of Korea into a unique vehicle, combining traditional craftsmanship with advanced technologies.
The Yoonseul paint is undoubtedly the boldest element of this Ferrari. It may not appeal to everyone, that is certain. Art can seduce as it can shock, and here the goal is not to please the general opinion, but to create a unique piece for which the bespoke order is undeniable. The iridescent gradient, from green to purple with blue reflections, could have leaned towards aesthetic approximation, or even visual aberration. But it must be acknowledged that the final result enhances the fluid and elegant lines of the model, a tribute to the legendary Ferrari Daytona, and underscores both modernity and elegance. A well-measured modernism that hits the mark.
A Ferrari designed to be unique
The interior also reflects this fusion between innovation and tradition. Dahye Jeong integrates her handwoven patterns onto seats, flooring, and dashboard using unprecedented techniques. Hyunhee Kim adds translucent elements on the emblems, central tunnel, and trunk, while TaeHyun Lee enhances the vehicle with his white lacquer, visible on the calipers and shift paddles. The duo GRAYCODE and jiiiiin translates the sound of the Ferrari V12 into visual patterns on the bodywork, reinforcing the unique identity of this GT.
Under the hood, the 6.5-liter V12 produces 830 hp, reaches 9,500 rpm, propels the car to over 340 km/h, and allows for a 0 to 100 km/h in about 3 seconds.
This model should not be seen as any vision of the future for the Italian brand. The 12Cilindri Tailor Made illustrates the very wide array of customization offered to clients in search of a high-end Ferrari.
