The program empowers college students and aspiring entrepreneurs to launch and grow their own unique fashion brands. <\/p>\n<p>This year&#8217;s program features an innovative two-phase approach: a Scale-up Track to boost brand independence, followed by a Final Track focused on brand launch support.<\/p>\n<p>Following their selection last September, the MNFS sixth round scholars dove into the Scale-up Track. This intensive phase, which ran until December, included expert-led lectures and mentoring sessions centered on branding strategies and production planning.<\/p>\n<p>Upon successful completion of the essential Scale-up Track, Musinsa awarded each participant a generous scholarship of 5 million KRW (approximately 3,750 USD).<\/p>\n<p>Armed with this funding, the budding designers channeled their creativity into crafting prototypes for the Spring\/Summer 2026 season, each piece a reflection of their unique aesthetic vision.<\/p>\n<p>From the 11 brands that showcased their final prototypes after the Scale-up Track, Musinsa handpicked the top three finalists to advance to the Final Track.<\/p>\n<p>After a rigorous evaluation process examining brand portfolios, prototypes, and visual content, three standout labels emerged victorious: \u25b2 Pseudonym (PSEUDONYM), \u25b2 Ogi (OGI), and \u25b2 Lee Yang (EYANG).<\/p>\n<p>To ensure both industry credibility and market appeal, Musinsa employed a dual judging system. This innovative approach combined scores from a panel of fashion insiders \u2013 including established designer brand directors and merchandising experts \u2013 with results from a public vote conducted through the Musinsa Apple .<\/p>\n<p>The three selected brands will now embark on the Final Track, an intensive program running through April.<\/p>\n<p>The culmination of this journey? A chance to showcase their collections in a dedicated pop-up store in Seoul&#8217;s hip Seongsu-dong neighborhood this April. This exciting opportunity will allow these emerging designers to connect directly with potential customers and industry insiders alike.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Musinsa announces the selection of the top 3 brands for its MNFS scholarship, supporting aspiring fashion entrepreneurs in brand
