Interview: Model Alex Yun (Belarus)

Can you tell us a little about you?

My name is Alex. I was born in Belarus but have a mixed heritage of Russian and Korean. This is reflected in how I look and represent the cultures I very much enjoy. I would say I’m a creature with a mind of my own and a wish to present an artistic vision of it to the world.

If you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?

I don't think I can find something that I would want to change right now.

How did you start modelling?

I started modeling many years back when one of my friends suggested trying to take some pictures. Later on, we created my first portfolio on ModelMayhem. I have my new account there started not long time back: MM# 4573843.

What do you think of the work as a model?

Working as a model is something that I enjoy a lot. Usually, I'm taking photoshoots very seriously and trying to look my best. I think communication and a certain level of empathy with the photographer are vital for achieving the best results.

What is your beauty regimen?

I appreciate quality sleeping. There is nothing that can make me look better than consistent, long sleep. I like to wake up as early as possible. Somewhere between 5 and 7 a.m. is the best for me. Exercising few times a week, extra stretching here and there. I can spend hours just walking in Nature since that's what gives me energy.

What are your personal qualities which distinguish you from others?

I think I am good at being honest, not judging, understanding, and accepting others' weaknesses.

What are your plans for the future?

Future has a connection with everything I do today. Let's say, in 10 years would love to see me as a model and successful artist. I started painting not long time ago, but I enjoy it a lot and can see many potentials in this field. You can check my artwork on my website: www.alex-yun.com.

What are some of your favorite experiences so far?

I would love to mention plenty of moments since I am trying to enjoy my life as much as I can. However, the brightest of them might be too personal and related to those I love.

Do you have any advice for those who want to start modelling?

My advice will be as follows:

• Be yourself, and don't try to be like someone else. Stay unique as you are.

• Believe that everything is possible, regardless of what people around you might say.

What do you think of the magazine?

I think the magazine has diverse content that is highly beneficial for viewers. Great inspirational platform indeed.
