The worlds of music and fashion collide once more as Stray Kids’ leader Bang Chan and FENDI unveil their collaborative masterpiece, “Roman Empire.” The global artist and Maison Brand Ambassador has written, composed, and produced the single — a lyrical and visual tribute to the shared pursuit of creativity, craftsmanship, and timeless excellence.
Filmed at FENDI’s Roman headquarters, the Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, the music video captures the essence of the Maison’s architectural grandeur and Bang Chan’s bold artistic identity. Within its marble arches and soft sunlight, the artist weaves the spirit of Rome into music, echoing FENDI’s legacy of sophistication and innovation.
Bang Chan describes the song as “a love compared to the eternity and grandeur of the Roman Empire,” infusing symbols of the Maison — the Peekaboo bag and the signature F logo — into his lyrics and visuals. Through this creative dialogue, he reinterprets FENDI’s classical motifs through modern soundscapes and emotion.
Musically, “Roman Empire” combines smooth R&B melodies, ethereal synth layers, and a punchy Miami Bass rhythm, producing an atmosphere that is both introspective and cinematic. The balance of elegance and power mirrors FENDI’s own design philosophy — refined yet daring, classic yet forward-looking.
The project extends beyond a traditional brand collaboration. It embodies a creative exchange where heritage meets innovation, and where Bang Chan’s role as an artist transcends performance into storytelling. His ability to merge emotion, sound, and visual identity makes “Roman Empire” not just a song, but an experience that encapsulates both his musical evolution and FENDI’s enduring legacy.
The official music video will debut on November 3 at 6:00 p.m., with a special premiere at COEX’s K-pop Square in Seoul — symbolically connecting the Roman roots of the Maison with the modern pulse of Korean pop culture.
Through “Roman Empire,” Bang Chan and FENDI reaffirm their shared vision: that artistry knows no borders, and when fashion and music unite, they create something timeless — a symphony of style, emotion, and creative freedom.
