PARIS and NEW YORK and SINGAPORE, June 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — AMTD Group Inc. (“AMTD” or the “Group”), alongside The Generation Essentials Group (NYSE: TGE), a subsidiary of the Group under AMTD Digital (NYSE: HKD), is proud to announce the upcoming release of its fourth L’Officiel Japan Issue, scheduled for June 28.
Launched in September 2024, L’Officiel Japan marks TGE’s full-scale efforts to engage the Japanese market. Since its launch, it has received widespread acclaim and positive feedback both locally and internationally.
Japan is one of the key markets’ focuses for TGE. Building on this, TGE has leveraged the AMTD L’Officiel intellectual property and successfully launched the world’s first-ever L’Officiel Coffee in Omotesando, Tokyo. To further expand its presence, the board of directors of TGE has approved plans to open 2-3 additional L’Officiel Coffee shops across Japan, including key locations in Tokyo, Kyoto, and/or Osaka. On the magazine side, L’Officiel Japan is planning to launch L’Officiel Hommes Japan next year, while also introducing TGE’s global Watch and jewellery Magazine brand – La Revue des Montres, to the Japanese market.
The latest L’Officiel Japan summer 2025 issue features TWICE’s MINA on the cover. Mina is a member of the globally active girl group TWICE, which debuted in South Korea in 2015. In 2024, TWICE performed at Nissan Stadium, becoming the first overseas female artist group to perform there. In 2023, she formed the sub-unit MISAMO with fellow Japanese members MOMO and SANA. As MISAMO, they held a concert at Tokyo Dome in 2025, breaking a new record for the fastest Tokyo Dome performance by a female artist. She also became an ambassador for BOUCHERON starting in 2024. Mina makes a dazzling appearance on the cover wearing high jewelry from Boucheron, exemplifying the brand’s ever-evolving aesthetic vision.
Inside the latest L’Officiel Japan issue, readers will find an exclusive interview with contemporary artist Tomokazu Matsuyama, whose “FIRST LAST” exhibition at AzabudaiHills sparked widespread acclaim. The issue also features a stunning fashion story by photographer Yoshihiko Ueda, capturing his wife, Karen Kirishima, ahead of his upcoming solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, Hayama. Rounding out the issue is Shunsuke Michieda of Naniwa Danshi, whose delicate expressions captivate the viewer in every frame.
This issue will be widely distributed across Japan in partnership with Asahi Shimbun Publications Inc., with whom TGE maintains a smooth and strong collaboration. The issue will be available at bookstores across Japan, through online retailers, and at L’Officiel Coffee Japan location.
