Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has created a Bespoke Collection for the South Korea market, inspired by the country’s two largest and most dynamic cities.
The Bespoke Collection, a first of its kind for the marque in the country, embraces the aesthetic heritage of South Korea with a contemporary flair true to the sophistication and dynamism of Seoul and Busan.

Representing the capital city, the Rolls-Royce Ghost wears white and black offset by red and blue design elements, a colour palette chosen with reverence to the country’s Taegukgi national flag. Accenting an exterior in bright Andalusian White are twin coachlines in Cobalto Blue and Mugello Red, and a hand-painted motif capturing the silhouette of the iconic Namsan Seoul Tower. In a subtle flourish, these colours also form pinstripes tracing the circumference of the wheel centers.
Inside, the effect is equally dignified. In a dark, brooding ‘black tie with a twist’ theme, the contours of the black leather are accentuated by contrasting Arctic White elements along with seat piping in the same Mugello Red and stitching in Cobalto Blue. Beyond, massage seats with perforated leather for air ventilation and headrest cushions embroidered with ‘RR’ monograms ensure passengers arrive relaxed and refreshed, entertained by the rear-seat theatre and Bespoke Audio system.

Like the Seoul Ghost, the rear pillar motif created by the Goodwood design team for the Busan Rolls-Royce Wraith holds traditional and modern icons as its inspiration, including a geometrical pattern mused by the delicate latticework seen in traditional Korean hanok screen doors.
The exterior is a Royal Blue and Jubilee Silver two-tone, while a single coachline in Blushing Pink darts across the shoulder line of the car and circles the blue wheel centers, drawing the eye to the contours of the vehicle. On the prow sits an illuminated Spirit of Ecstasy, adding further radiance.

This lustrous theme continues inside, where seats bound in Selby Grey leather with Cobalto Blue accents are cocooned in a sea of Navy Blue, the Starlight Headliner glimmering above and Blushing Pink touches present in the stitching on the seats, instrument panel and ‘RR’ headrest monograms. The architectural motif features as an inlay in the centre of the Piano Black fascia and is also incorporated as an abstract embroidery on the leather waterfall between the rear seats, creating a perfect environment to enjoy the 1300W, 18-channel Bespoke Audio system.
