1:400 Diecast: Korean Air Boeing 737-900ER HL8248 "2025 Livery" (NG Models NG79026)

HL8248 (MSN 37635, line number 4038, Boeing 737-9B5ER with winglets) was delivered to Korean Air on 18 May 2012 — the carrier's first 737-900ER and one of the first 737-900s to enter service in Asia. It operates domestic and regional routes from Seoul Incheon and Gimpo. In 2025, Korean Air rolled out a refreshed house livery, and HL8248 became one of the earliest 737-900s to receive the new scheme — making this NG Models release a precise document of that transition moment.

Livery & Visual Detail

The model carries Korean Air's 2025 livery: sky-blue vertical stabilizer with the Taeguk yin-yang emblem, blue "KOREAN" lettering on the white forward fuselage, and the updated nose-to-tail color treatment. Blended winglets with blue inner faces are present. CFM56-7BE engine nacelles are finished in white-grey. Registration HL8248 is printed on the rear fuselage with a small South Korean flag decal.

Model Craft & Collectibility

NG Models item 79026 is a 1:400 diecast metal model with antenna and landing gear, wingspan approximately 8.6 cm. It captures HL8248 specifically as Korean Air's first 737-900 airframe wearing the current livery — a dual collector hook that draws both Korean Air fleet historians and NG Models' growing 737-900ER tooling fan base.
