You've done a very good job with the colour scheme here, as you've chosen black/grey for the background but for the focal point of Jaejoong you've decided to stick with the original images colour. This creates a great focal point, as its the only amount of intense colour that you have visible.
The colours are also a bit contrasting as you've got some sharp details in blue and pink/red added here and there on jaejoongs image. Although this may be from the original image or from overlaying the heart background, but nevertheless it's created a nice detail and effect here.
~Font [3/3]
You've used white for the title font and for the credits here, it works really well with the background on Jae's image and adds a brightness to the graphic. The way that you've positioned the credits as well is very creative and it's clear, easy to see and not overbearing on the graphic. You've also used full capitals on the author credits, and changed the space between the letters as well, this looks good because it just causes that text to stand out.
~Image Suitability [2.8/3]
Even though the main image is just Jae it's a very well chosen image, as you are able to do that scratched out effect with the fact that the cloth from Jaejoong goes off to the left, this creates movement in the graphic as well.
You've chosen the flourishes under the credit text, which adds some detail that looks really good against the light/dark contrast. However with this flourish you can see the edge of it, which sort of deducts from the effect. Perhaps if you had done something with the edge of it, it would have looked cleaner.
~Overall layout [3/3]
You've done really well with the layout, the position (and rotation) of the credit text, as well as the brightness of the main image works really well with the entire graphic. The background works well, as the hearts are not particularly white, so they don't draw attention away from Jae, but they're light enough to add a detail to the background. Total= 11.8/12
