The new Korean

[Charter]

I would be really curious to see Korean Air new livery with my eyes. It is not just light blue but it seems there is a bit of "opal" color. The livery seems to change depending on how the sun's rays hit the fuselage.
This livery (still not sure if i like it or not)remembers be latest Alitalia livery, a light grey changing shde with sunlight.

The issue is not even the blue itself but the fact that there is no colored "pepsi" logo anymore. That logo, which represent the korean flag, may be the most important element of Korean Air. Now they removed it, it just became a boring monotone generic livery that makes no sense, whether you like it or not.

That’s why it’ll never be better

Yeah everything is monochrome and simplified these days. It has to look good at many sizes, resolutions, and contexts on a mobile device. It's a very annoying trend. I think this livery is one maybe I will like better in person, but right now it just looks like a cosmetics company to me.

Am I the only one who still don’t like the new livery?

No, I hate it with a passion. The color looks fine in person *only with direct sunlight*, but everything else is mind-numbingly bland.

THIS!
Very apt Hehe

I'm not against the new livery. I guess it's grown on me. Familiarity, perhaps.

But I will sorely miss the previous scheme, just like I miss the 'old' LH........

I guess only Condor really got it right with their rebrand. Everything else is just corporate slop.

Air France got it right too! Definitely the best transition of the last 5 years. All they did was to re-size the title (which was necessary, especially their A320), re-organized the AF-KLM logo, skyteam, etc. and that’s it! They didn’t change their emblematic logo or the french colors from their aircrafts. The AF identity hasn’t disappear and that’s why, even though I still love the 2009 livery on their 77W, I think the current colors is the perfect upgrade AF needed.

BRO! My favorite contemporary livery and I applaud Air France for keeping it tastefully updated.
