If you thought women’s beauty pageants have the most *~extra~* national costume showcase, think again. On September 26, the Mister Global 2019 pageant happened in Bangkok, Thailand. The pageant, which is relatively new, began in 2014. For this year’s pageant, South Korea’s Jong Woo Kim won the coveted title, beating 37 other contestants from across the globe.
The most awaited part of a beauty pageant is usually the national costume where contestants can show off their country’s heritage and culture. A lot of thought and effort goes into making a costume, and the contestants of this year’s Mister Global delivered. From feathered numbers to a superhero suit, take a look at all 38 contestants of Mister Global as they show off their national pride in their costumes as shared in a Facebook post from Missosology:
