SEVENTEEN members Jeon Won Woo and Kim Min Gyu have been unveiled as the stars of Dicon Vol. 26, titled White Midnight. The special edition captures the iconic “puppy and cat” chemistry fans adore while showcasing a previously unseen noir-inspired charisma. This release celebrates their close friendship and unique charm, with a focus on their shared and individual identities.

The photo book is divided into five distinct versions: individual A and B types for each member and a unit version. Each type offers a wealth of content, with 176 pages dedicated to the individual versions and 200 pages for the unit version. The collection is packed with exclusive photos and memorabilia, delivering a comprehensive visual and emotional experience for fans.

The A-type highlights their playful dynamic, portraying Wonwoo as a sleek cat and Mingyu as an energetic puppy. The shoot features cozy scenes of them spending time with dogs, blending warmth and humor. In contrast, the B-type radiates sophistication, with both artists dressed in tailored black suits in dramatic nighttime settings. Their model-like poses and intense gazes capture a mature and magnetic energy.

The unit version amplifies their natural chemistry, portraying intimate moments reminiscent of shared dorm life. Scenes of them lounging on the sofa, playing video games, and enjoying mini car rides showcase a relaxed camaraderie. Fans who choose the unit version also receive additional collectibles, including exclusive two-shot photos, a desk calendar, and photo stickers.

Each version includes unique perks tailored to fans. A-type comes with photo cards, an acrylic mini car message stand, and four-shot photo strips. B-type features photo cards, a metal keyring, and posters. The unit version offers its own set of photo cards and themed extras, ensuring a personalized experience for every CARAT.

The photobook also features heartfelt interviews where Wonwoo and Mingyu reflect on SEVENTEEN’s upcoming 10th anniversary. They share their thoughts on their journey, express gratitude to their fans, and reveal personal aspirations. Particularly touching is a section where they write letters to each other, offering a glimpse into their genuine friendship. “We understand each other just by looking into each other’s eyes,” they revealed, adding depth to their well-loved dynamic.

During the interview, the duo expressed excitement for this project. “This photo book captures two contrasting sides of us—our on-stage and off-stage personas. We hope fans enjoy exploring this duality.”
