PS: After Friday, you don't have to work so hard anymore, but I know many of my readers will still be busy tomorrow. I hope my book can serve as a small form of entertainment when you're busy. If you're not happy, you can scold me, because your happiness is true happiness. Haha!
After Jiang Zhiying finished her assessment, and Park Jihyo had become quite familiar with her, Park Jihyo started to ask Jiang Zhiying about his own matters!
"Zhiying, I want to ask you for help with something. I wonder if you can agree?" In Jiang Zhiying's room, Park Jihyo marked some key points in her textbook while tentatively asking her.
To be honest, Jiang Zhiying now had a very high opinion of Park Jihyo. Admiring a strong man is a woman's nature, and Park Jihyo was an exceptionally strong man!
"Sure, OPPA, as long as I can do it, I will help you!" Jiang Zhiying smiled and said affirmatively.
"Ha ha...!" Jiang Zhiying's words made Park Jihyo chuckle and say, "Sure, sure, you can definitely do it. Actually, it's a simple matter. I want to participate in the selection for the male lead in a company's MV, but my current appearance isn't good. I want you to help me with my look. Aren't you an artist? You can definitely help me!"
"Ah...!" Jiang Zhiying was surprised and said, "OPPA, you want to be an artist?"
Park Jihyo chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Not to be an artist, just to be the male lead in that MV!"
"Which MV?" Jiang Zhiying asked curiously.
When Park Jihyo heard Jiang Zhiying ask which MV, he chuckled and said, "It's TARA's 'Lie' MV. I saw their company's registration point at Seoul University, so I signed up. Then I thought I should change my image!"
"Do you like TARA?" Jiang Zhiying asked a bit jealously.
This question made Park Jihyo laugh and shake his head repeatedly, saying, "Not really, just signed up on a whim. Since I'm doing it, I want to do it best. I feel my current appearance is definitely not good enough, so I want to change it!" Park Jihyo didn't want to reveal his true thoughts to others, as it was too dangerous!
"Is that so...?" Jiang Zhiying thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, OPPA, I might not be able to do your makeup, but I can take you to the beauty salon where I get my makeup done. I can ask the salon manager to help you. She is the best stylist in the salon and can definitely give you a complete transformation!"
"Really...?" Park Jihyo said with surprise.
Seeing Jiang Zhiying nodding her head vigorously, Park Jihyo said happily, "Then let's go later!"
......
WithBeautySalon is a comprehensive beauty salon located in Cheongdam-dong, spanning 7 floors (2 underground, 5 above ground), with each floor dedicated to different services (hair, makeup, nails, skincare, weddings). Besides famous K-pop stars like Super Junior and KangTa (An Seok-hyun) and film stars like Kang Soo-yeon, other idol groups like M4M and S4 are also regular customers.
Korean stars generally go to beauty salons themselves. So-called in-house stylists are only provided for concerts, and due to the high cost and the large number of artists with tight schedules, they usually go to beauty salons themselves.
The location was a white villa in Cheongdam-dong. Although it was already 10 PM, the villa was still brightly lit with people coming and going. KARA, with their song "Honey," had gained some fame, so Jiang Zhiying naturally wore a large pair of sunglasses. Since Park Jihyo was used to taking care of people, he worriedly held Jiang Zhiying's arm, making her blush and say thank you.
Soon, the two entered WithBeautySalon!
Because Jiang Zhiying was an artist, the salon manager quickly came over and warmly welcomed Jiang Zhiying and Park Jihyo. She directly led them to the VIP room and asked Jiang Zhiying what services she needed.
Jiang Zhiying pointed to Park Jihyo and said, "Sister, actually, it's this OPPA who wants you to help him with his look. He wants to look younger and more handsome. His current appearance is too old!"
Hearing Jiang Zhiying's words, the manager carefully examined Park Jihyo's appearance and said, "Wow... Zhiying's OPPA is really handsome!" As a professional, the manager was not misled by Park Jihyo's messy hair and beard. She judged his appearance based on his face shape.
"Really...?" Jiang Zhiying said with surprise, "Then I'll trouble you, sister!"
The manager nodded and led Park Jihyo to another room.
......
In the other room, Park Jihyo first saw hair washing, cutting, and styling tools, and on another workbench, various skincare and makeup tools.
The manager asked Park Jihyo to sit in the hair washing, cutting, and styling area and said with a smile, "Alright, sir, I'll wash your hair first, then deal with your beard, and cut your hair. Your face shape is somewhat similar to Kim Hyun-joong from Boys Over Flowers, giving off a warm and gentle vibe. So, I'll style you in that type."
Hearing the manager's words, Park Jihyo, who really didn't understand any of this, nodded repeatedly and said to the manager, "Just make me look younger!"
Park Jihyo's words made the manager smile slightly. She reclined the chair and started washing Park Jihyo's hair. Park Jihyo soon fell asleep due to the comfort.
After half an hour, the manager gently woke Park Jihyo. When he opened his eyes, he saw his new appearance: a neat and flowing hairstyle, a young look, and no more aging beard. Park Jihyo now had a face that matched his age and looked handsome.
The young face in the mirror made Park Jihyo chuckle and ask the manager, "Do I look young?"
However, the manager said sincerely, "Sir, you not only look young but are also the handsomest man I've ever seen!"
"Thank you so much! You're really amazing! I didn't know I could look like this!" After saying this, Park Jihyo got off the chair and asked the manager, "How much does this cost?"
Seeing Park Jihyo thinking it was over and about to pay, the manager chuckled and said, "Not yet, sir. We're only halfway through your transformation. Please follow me!"
