A MUSIC STUDENT AT BERKLEE,

A WORLD-RENOWNED COLLEGE!

WHAT IS THIS MUSIC STUDENT DOING HERE?

OH!

K-STYLE IS NOW FAMOUS WORLDWIDE?

WHAT STYLE DOES THIS

BERKLEE MUSIC STUDENT WANT?

WHAT STYLE DOES JOAQUIN WANT TO TRY OUT?

KPOP DEMON HUNTERS!

JOAQUIN, A BORN-TO-BE NEW YORKER

VOCALIST IN A BAND

HE ENDED UP WATCHING KPOP DEMON HUNTERS

THE FIRST K-POP BASED ANIMATED FILM

MADE OUTSIDE OF KOREA

WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO

JOAQUIN'S K-POP TRANSFORMATION

JOAQUIN'S BEAUTY WISH:

I WANT TO TRY K-POP IDOL-STYLE MAKEUP

WHAT WOULD JOAQUIN LOOK LIKE

AS A K-POP IDOL?

BEFORE THE TRANSFORMATION,

IT'S SHAMPOO TIME

HE LOOKS COMPLETELY DIFFEREN

WITHOUT THE GLASSES

A PRETTY BOY HIDING BEHIND HIS GLASSES

RECLINER GOING DOWN

HIS HEAD IS TOUCHING THE TAP

HE SCOOTS DOWN

NOW THE CHAIR IS TOO SHOR

UNFORTUNATELY FOR HIM,

HE'S TOO TALL FOR THIS CHAIR

FEET DANGLING

WHILE HE GETS SHAMPOOED

You can eat now, Min-young.

We got some gimbap earlier.

-We have a bit of time to ourselves.

-Yes.

A SHORT BREAK AFTER JOAQUIN

I should eat some gimbap now,

-before it gets busy.

-That sounds good.

We'll only get busier from now on,

so it'd be best to eat our lunch now.

TAKING A MOUTHFUL OF GIMBAP

Do you want the sauce?

MIN-YOUNG TAKES A BITE TOO

We have vegan sauce too.

-No, it's okay.

-Okay.

He's young, right?

Yes, and he's a musician too.

Berklee College of Music, right?

-Yes.

-That's awesome.

That's really cool.

I've never met anyone from Berklee before.

First time seeing a Berklee music student.

THE BERKLEE MUSIC STUDENT IS DONE

-My timing was perfect.

-It was.

THE REAL MAKEOVER IS ABOUT TO BEGIN

MAKEUP

LEO IS IN CHARGE OF JOAQUIN'S MAKEUP

SINCE HE'S LEO'S FIRST MALE CLIENT,

HE'S BEING EXTRA CAREFUL

MOISTURIZING

GOOD!

THE K-GLOW IS FOR EVERYONE,

REGARDLESS OF GENDER OR RACE

WHILE JOAQUIN IS GETTING HIS SKINCARE

THE NEXT CLIENT IS ALREADY HERE?

STARTS BY GREETING HER

Welcome to DANJANG.

WHO IS THIS CLIENT?

FLIPPING THROUGH THE RESERVATION LIS

PRETENDING NOT TO BE FLUSTERED

JOAQUIN VISITED DANJANG ALONE, BUT

APPARENTLY, SHE TOLD HIM

SHE'S TAKING SOMETHING ELSE

ANNOYED

YOU'RE ALREADY LATE, MOM

ACTUALLY, HIS MOM WAS JUST LATE

IT'S LATE, BUT SHE CAME

CURIOUS HOW HER SON'S DOING

FAMILY MEMBER OF ANOTHER CLIEN

YES, THAT'S MY SON

PROUD

SHE HAS A QUESTION FOR JONG-HYUK

SHE WANTS TO HURRY AND SEE

HER SON'S TRANSFORMATION

A CHIC IDOL OR A CUTE IDOL?

A CHIC IDOL

HE'S COMPLETELY OPEN

WHEN IT COMES TO BEAUTY

When you think of idols,

you immediately think of burgundy, right?

They wear reddish makeup

that looks dreamy and ethereal.

BURGUNDY MAKEUP

Their eyes seem to be glowing,

as if they're about to cast a spell.

They look mystical.

ENCHANTING AND SEXY AT THE SAME TIME

You can't help but be drawn to them.

Look forward, please.

IN FACT, LEO'S AN OLD HAND AT THIS STYLE

This is Min-hyuk's

grim reaper look.

How does it look?

SAJA BOYS-STYLE BURGUNDY MAKEUP

I thought Joaquin might like that.

LET'S DO THIS K-POP IDOL MAKEUP!

LEO CHOOSES A NATURAL BUT CHIC

BURGUNDY MAKEUP LOOK

STARTING WITH THE COLORS

PINK AND BROWN EYESHADOWS

ARE GENTLY APPLIED ALL OVER HIS EYELIDS

FOCUSED

RED?

UPON SEEING THE RED EYESHADOW

HE CLASPS HIS HANDS NERVOUSLY

CROSSED ARMS BUT AN OPEN HEAR

LEO'S SCIENCE LAB?

APPLYING A RED EYESHADOW

ALONG THE LASHLINE

THE NATURAL BURGUNDY SHADE

ENHANCES THE ETHEREALNESS

AN ANDROGYNOUS LOOK

A VAMPIRE LOOK

K-IDOL MAKEUP COMPLETE

HAPPY WITH HOW NATURAL IT IS

A CHARACTER FROM THE MOVIE

SATISFIED

BEING RIDICULOUS

IDOL MAKEUP SUITS HIM SO WELL

FINISHING TOUCHES

-You're making him even sexier?

-Yes.

A SEXY LIP

-You're having fun, aren't you?

-Totally. It's so easy.

You're just doing it

for personal enjoyment now, aren't you?

LEO IS ENJOYING DOING MAKEUP

ON HIS IDOL JOAQUIN

I'm done.

MAKEUP COMPLETE

-He looks like Jinu.

-Oh, Jinu!

THERE'S AN IDOL IN DANJANG

What kind of hairstyle

would you like today?

Do you have anything in mind?

HE'S OPEN TO ANY HAIRSTYLE AS WELL

Doing Joaquin's hair was really hard.

At first, I found it too hard,

and I liked his original hair anyway.

I even wondered what stylist he went to,

because I liked his hairstyle so much.

But he wanted a change.

So I decided I'd give him

a K-style hair makeover.

PLANNING TO STRAIGHTEN HIS HAIR

BEFORE STYLING I

I'M OKAY WITH ANYTHING

MISUNDERSTOOD THE QUESTION

NOT AT DANJANG, BUT IN TOTAL

-Oh, my career?

-Yes.

It's been

How do you say "25 years"?

JONG-HYUK HELPS OU

And my age is 45 years old.

Handsome and kind you're perfect.

You must be AI, not human.

A VERY FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE

FULL OF COMPLIMENTS

WE'LL SEE WHAT HE WANTS TO DO

I'M PROUD OF MY SON, BUT

ALL MOTHERS AND SONS

CAN RELATE TO THIS FEELING

EVEN MAKING A RESERVATION FOR HER SON

MAKING PLANS FOR A DATE WITH HER SON

AS SHE WAITS

His hair looks great

with this messy style.

MEANWHILE, HER SON JOAQUIN IS

SWEEP

WAX

A WILD STYLING TECHNIQUE

BUT HIS MOM MADE A RESERVATION

AT A RESTAURANT

-He looks great.

-He looks so sophisticated.

THEY CAN'T STOP COMPLIMENTING HIM

In Korean, we'd say, "jal-saeng-gyeotta."

-It's very true. "Handsome."

-"Handsome."

So handsome.

-He's handsome.

-Yeah, exactly.

Can you ask him if he gets that a lot?

I knew it. You already knew.

EVERYONE'S LAUGHING

MOM'S TIRED OF WAITING

WHEN CAN I SEE MY SON?

DOES JOAQUIN REALLY

LOOK LIKE A K-POP IDOL?

That's really something else.

ACTS LIKE SHE DOESN'T BELIEVE HIM

AN UNBRIDGEABLE DISTANCE

TIME TO REVEAL JOAQUIN, THE K-POP IDOL

WAITING WITH HER EYES CLOSED

HERE HE COMES!

WHAT WILL JOAQUIN LOOK LIKE

AS A K-POP IDOL?

THEY'RE EXCITED TOO

SHE'S EXCITED AS WELL

SMILING WIDELY

JOAQUIN, A YOUNG MUSIC LOVER

BECOMES A K-POP IDOL!

THE CLASSIC K-POP IDOL LOOK

Reddish makeup

that looks dreamy and ethereal.

AFTER THE ETHEREAL MAKEUP

IT'S TIME FOR A TRENDY K-IDOL HAIRSTYLE

This is the most popular hairstyle

for idols.

They do this a lot for photoshoots.

PROFESSIONALLY AND CAREFULLY,

CHA HONG CREATES JOAQUIN'S NEW LOOK

HE'S TRANSFORMED

INTO A NEW YORK K-POP IDOL

HEARTS IN HER EYES

-Oh my God.

-He was already perfect.

CRACKING UP

SHE MEANS I

COMPLETELY TRANSFORMED INTO AN IDOL

I want to have a son as handsome as him.

-Don't your cheekbones hurt?

-They do.

TIME FOR JOAQUIN THE HEARTTHROB

TO HEAD OU

THE FIRST MALE CLIENT GOES HOME SATISFIED

So cute.

DANJANG

We should have some gimbap here.

-Do we have it?

-It's here.

A LATE LUNCH FOR CHA HONG

-Tofu gimbap? Thank you.

-It's vegan.

Here's the sauce. It's vegan too.

They have sauce with gimbap here?

Thank you.

I'll eat slowly

so I don't get indigestion.

CHEWING SLOWLY

-Why? Are they still here?

-Yes.

You'll finally be able to rest.

-You didn't eat yet?

-No.

I was waiting.

HE WAITED UNTIL EVERYONE ELSE ATE FIRS

Don't eat too quickly.

THE LAST TO EAT LUNCH

It's really delicious, by the way.

Really?

It tastes like

nothing I've eaten in Korea.

TALKING ABOUT MEETING JOAQUIN

You know, with that boy from before,

-I talked to him in horrible English,

-Joaquin.

but he understood everything.

He's the handsomest man I've ever seen.

-He really is, isn't he?

-No kidding.

It's not right to be that handsome.

-It's exhausting.

-What are the rest of us supposed to do?

Look at Jong-hyuk.

His life must be so comfortable.

Being too handsome

is kind of selfish, you know?

HAHA

JUST THEN, TWO PEOPLE APPROACH DANJANG

Who else didn't eat?

THEY'RE STILL TAKING A BREAK

The makeup artists?

-Pony already ate.

-Oh, she did?

Yes, earlier.

THE NEXT CLIENTS ARE HERE

Are they here already?

One yakgwa and this, coming up.

Green tea and omija tea?

Thank you.

LAUGHING

KATIE'S KOREAN DAUGHTER-IN-LAW

THE ARTISTS LOOK

SO PROFESSIONAL AND COMPETEN

TODAY'S CLIENT HAS

A BRIGHT AND YOUTHFUL SPIRI

FORMALLY INTRODUCES HERSELF

CHECKING HER NAME TAG

ACTRESS KATIE'S STORY

KATIE

KATIE IS GETTING READY FOR HER SECOND AC

LOOK AT MY GRANDKID!

ARE THERE ANY MORE PICTURES TO SHARE?

THESE CUTIES HAVE BECOME

THE CENTER OF KATIE'S WORLD

ASKS THE LOVING GRANDMA

ABOUT WHAT LOOK SHE WOULD LIKE

I'LL LEAVE IT TO YOU

KATIE'S BEAUTY WISH:

A NEW LOOK FOR A NEW PROFILE PICTURE

WILL KATIE'S NEW LOOK

HELP LAUNCH HER SECOND CAREER?

THE FIRST STEP TOWARD

KICKSTARTING HER CAREER AGAIN

IF YOU'RE READY,

WE'LL START WITH THE MAKEUP

TO THE MAKEUP PARTY ROOM

TODAY'S PARTY PLANNER IS LEOJ

OVER HERE!

PARTY ANIMALS GREETING EACH OTHER

This is great.

-You're perfect for each other.

-Exactly.

THE DANCE PARTY BRIDGES

THE 40-YEAR AGE GAP

THEY DO SHARE THE SAME NAME

HE ASKS ABOUT HER PREFERENCES

BEFORE THEY BEGIN

KATIE THINKS FOR A MOMEN

HE'S UNDERSTOOD THE CLIENT'S NEEDS

STARTING WITH A K-CUSHION FOUNDATION

AS PER USUAL

WRINKLED SKIN HAS TO BE

LIGHTLY COVERED BY A BRUSH

AND THEN TOUCHED UP WITH A PUFF

EVEN WITH JUST THE BASE MAKEUP

ALL THE WRINKLES HAVE BEEN COVERED UP

The point was not to make it

too dramatic or artificial.

That's what K-beauty is about, right?

So when I was attaching her eyelashes,

I didn't want to make them

too dense or exaggerated.

I used three light, natural lashes on her.

HE USED THREE ON TOP OF EACH OTHER

CAREFULLY ATTACHING THEM ONE BY ONE

LEO'S EYE FOR DETAIL

REALLY MADE THE DIFFERENCE

I felt like I was there

to support her passion from her old days,

and to cheer her on

with her new beginning.

LOOK FORWARD TO KATIE'S TRANSFORMATION!

CURRENT TIME

3:30 P.M.

WHO IS DANJANG'S NEXT CLIENT?

-Welcome.

-Hello.

Welcome to DANJANG.

THE FIRST INDIAN NEW YORKER

TO VISIT DANJANG

HER OLDER COUSIN

INTRODUCING THE OTHER EMPLOYEES

SURPRISED AT MIN-YOUNG'S GLOWING BEAUTY

STRAIGHT TO THE WAITING AREA

STARING INTENTLY

MIN-YOUNG'S BEAUTY

IS PART OF THE CUSTOMER SERVICE

MIN-YOUNG HAS GOTTEN THEIR ORDERS

CEO RA GIVES HER A GOWN

CONSULTATION

WHO IS THIS GIRL WITH A TAN?

SONAM'S FAVORITE K-DRAMA

A SELF-PROCLAIMED K-DRAMA FAN

MANAGER PARK ASKS ABOU

HER STYLE PREFERENCES

SHE WANTS SOME FLASHY EYE MAKEUP

SONAM'S BEAUTY WISH:

AN ELEGANT K-DRAMA LOOK

WHAT WILL SONAM LOOK LIKE

AFTER THE MAKEOVER?

Pony.

TIME FOR THE MAKEOVER

MAKEUP

She just came back from Portugal,

where she was on vacation.

So she'd like you to

make her skin a bit brighter.

She also likes to focus on the eyes

for a more glamorous look.

Glamorous?

-Okay, got it.

-Yes.

-Remember to focus on her eyes.

-Okay, I see.

-Give her some tips too.

-Okay, sure.

LOOKING AT HER EVERYDAY PHOTOS

You look lighter in these.

SHE'S SAD ABOUT HOW TAN SHE GO

OVER HER VACATION

LET'S PREP THE SKIN FIRS

THERE ARE ALSO SOME AREAS OF DISCOLORATION

AROUND THE EYES AND THE MOUTH

HMM

Will it match?

SHE WANTS HER SKIN TO LOOK BRIGH

GLANCES

TANNED SKIN AND DISCOLORATION

In Sonam's case,

I focused on one thing only.

Color correcting.

There were areas of discoloration

around her eyes

and her mouth.

Color correcting is where

you use complementary colors

to smooth out the skin tone.

CHECKING HER SKIN TONE ONE MORE TIME

SHE STARTS RUMMAGING THROUGH HER DRAWERS

LIPSTICK?

WHY LIPSTICK?

AND A CHOCOLATE-COLORED CONCEALER?

IT'S AN INTERESTING COMBINATION

If you use the wrong color,

the brown spots you want to correct

end up looking gray instead.

So I used a dark

chocolate-colored concealer,

a little bit of a MLBB lipstick,

and my usual correcting palette.

MIXING THEM ALL TOGETHER

WILL THESE THREE PRODUCTS MIXED TOGETHER

COVER UP HER SKIN IN A NATURAL WAY?

THE BAGS UNDER HER EYES DISAPPEARED

COVERING THE OTHER SIDE TOO

HAPPY WITH PONY'S PERFECT COLOR MATCHING

EVENING OUT THE SKIN TONE

AS FOR THE FOUNDATION,

PONY MIXED THREE DIFFERENT COLORS AGAIN

MIXING IT ALL TOGETHER

CREATING THE PERFECT COLOR

HOW WILL IT LOOK ON SONAM?

And then

Instead of using

the same color as her skin,

I tried to go lighter

to meet the client's needs.

CREATING THE PERFECT COLOR

FOR THE CLIENT'S NEEDS

NATURAL BASE MAKEUP COMPLETE

BUT

THE MORE I LOOK AT IT

HER SKIN TONE LOOKS FLAWLESS

SONAM'S AMAZING TRANSFORMATION

WILL CONTINUE

WHO ELSE IS HERE?

Welcome.

Welcome to DANJANG.

THE YOUNGEST GRANDDAUGHTER

Nice to meet you.

Yes, that's when the photoshoot is.

What time?

IT'S ALREADY 4 P.M.

-Thank you.

-Gonna check that.

IT NEEDS TO BE FINISHED IN 30 MINUTES!

MI-RAN'S HERE TO INFORM THE TEAM

ABOUT THE TIME CONSTRAIN

THE HAIR AND MAKEUP TEAM IS WORKING HARD

GAUGING

Are we out of time?

Does she need to leave soon?

She has another appointment.

She has to sh**t her profile picture soon.

-Is the makeup done?

-Not yet.

Can I fix her bangs?

Do we still have time?

LEO IS SUDDENLY VERY BUSY

She still has a bit of time left.

I was so

In that moment, right then and there,

I felt a big surge of panic.

Because of her age,

teardrops kept forming

in the corners of her eyes.

And the tears would get into the wrinkles

and smear the black eyeshadow

again and again.

Not only that,

but it kept mixing with the other colors

and creating this huge smudge.

I was so scared

because she had the photoshoot after.

I thought this might ruin the whole look.

LEO IS IN BIG TROUBLE

How am I going to fix this?

WHAT IS HIS SOLUTION?

But you know,

you have to be bold in moments like that.

I used a wet wipe to erase everything,

and used my fingers to apply

two colors to her eyes.

The base color and the accent color.

Then I wiped the rest.

Thankfully, the colors stayed on.

I felt so relieved. Thank goodness.

USING HIS FINGERTIPS AND ONLY TWO COLORS

CRISIS AVERTED

I'm exhausted.

IT'S ALMOST TIME FOR HER TO LEAVE

Grandma is coming out.

LUCKILY, THEY WERE ABLE TO FINISH IN TIME

A LITTLE NERVOUS

BIG BREATH!

She's coming out now.

BACK TO HER BELOVED FAMILY

KATIE STRUTS ALONG CONFIDENTLY

SHE WAS ONCE AN ACTRESS

BUT HER CAREER WAS CUT OFF FOR A WHILE

NOW, AT 72 YEARS OLD,

SHE'S READY TO BEGIN AGAIN

A GLAMOROUS TRANSFORMATION

INTO A SENIOR ACTRESS

OF COURSE, SHE GOES STRAIGHT TO

HER BELOVED FAMILY!

KATIE'S SECOND AC

BEGINS NOW

WITH HER GORGEOUS TRANSFORMATION

Q. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO NEXT?

SHE LOOKS SO CONFIDENT AFTER HER MAKEOVER

CHEERING HER ON

SMILING

PROFILE PICTURE UPDATED

FOR HER SUCCESSFUL SECOND AC

AFTER SENDING OFF KATIE'S FAMILY,

WHERE IS CHA HONG HEADED?

TO PONY'S ROOM

I'm Cha Hong, your hairdresser today.

HERE FOR YOUR K-ACTRESS MAKEOVER

I heard that you wanted straight hair.

STARE

She's so pretty.

Right?

I'M ALSO THANKFUL

I WANT HER TO LOVE HER HAIR TOO

I'll start straightening.

-I'll start straightening, okay?

-All right.

TO SAVE TIME, THEY'RE DOING

HAIR AND MAKEUP AT THE SAME TIME

What is your go-to eyeliner makeup?

THICKER, BUT STILL NATURAL

TO MAKE IT LOOK MORE NATURAL,

SMUDGE THE LINE WITH EYESHADOW

HER EYES STAND OUT EVEN MORE

THE CLIENT IS 100% SATISFIED

A WINGED EYELINER

COMPLETELY CHANGES UP THE MOOD

HER EYES LOOK CLEARER AND DEEPER NOW

IT'S A FIRST FOR BOTH OF THEM

MEANWHILE, CHA HONG IS WORKING HARD

AT STRAIGHTENING SONAM'S HAIR

The reason why

I wanted to straighten her hair

wasn't only because she wanted it.

I could see that she had

too much volume in her hair

compared to the size of her face,

which made her head look bigger.

So I wanted to create a sleeker style

by straightening her hair

with a slight curl at the end.

Usually, do you straighten your hair?

This hair iron doesn't hurt your hair much

and makes your hair really shiny.

FROM A CURLY, VOLUMINOUS HAIRSTYLE

TO AN ELEGANT AND SLEEK HAIRSTYLE

AS CHA HONG WRAPS UP

PONY FORGES ON

A GLAMOROUS LOOK THAT SONAM WANTED

PONY'S DETAILED TOUCHES

WHAT WILL THE FINAL RESULT LOOK LIKE?

She's all done now.

She's ready.

FINALLY TIME TO REVEAL SONAM'S MAKEOVER

THE MOST EXCITING MOMENT OF ALL

OH MY GOD

THE SALON GOES WILD

SHE LOOKS LIKE A MOVIE STAR

HER UNEVENLY TANNED SKIN

WAS COVERED UP PERFECTLY,

MAKING HER SKIN LOOK BRIGHT AND EVEN

ALONG WITH THE STRAIGHT HAIR SHE WANTED

TO EMPHASIZE HER SMALL FACE

AND ELEGANT NECKLINE,

IT WAS STYLED INTO A FEMININE UPDO!

It's so cute.

SHOWING OFF HER MAKEUP

SO READY TO GO OU

DANCING ALONG

IT'S LOOKING LIKE

SHE'LL HEAD STRAIGHT TO THE CLUB

YOU'RE ON FIRE!

SONAM'S MAKEOVER IS A HUGE SUCCESS

SADLY, IT'S NOW TIME

FOR THE LAST CLIENT TO LEAVE

-Bye-bye.

-Goodbye.

-Bye.

-Take care.

-Goodbye.

-Goodbye.

-Bye!

-Bye!

-Great job.

-Great job.

ALL SEVEN CLIENTS DONE!

AND THE HIDDEN MVP TODAY IS

-You should eat now.

-Mi-ran. Is there food?

We have gimbap.

CEO RA, WHO MADE SURE EVERYBODY WAS FED

THANKS TO HER,

EVERYBODY TOOK THEIR LUNCH BREAK TODAY!

PROUD

-Good work.

-Great job.

-DANJANG, DANJANG, glow up!

-DANJANG, DANJANG, glow up!

Good work.

-Let's go.

-Let's go home.

-Time to go home.

-Time to go home.

THE THIRD BUSINESS DAY IS OVER

AFTER ANOTHER PEACEFUL NIGH

DAWNS ANOTHER DAY,

BOTH BUSY AND RELAXED

THIS IS THE UNIQUE RHYTHM OF NEW YORK

It's so sunny today.

THE DANJANGS ARE WALKING TO WORK TODAY

Why are you sighing?

-You're like a New Yorker.

-It's my first time walking here.

-It's so nice.

-So this is New York.

FINALLY SEEING THE CITY STREETS

ON THEIR FOURTH DAY

-There seem to be more people than usual.

-Right.

The streets are busy today.

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PEOPLE

ON THE STREET TODAY?

IT SEEMS MORE CROWDED THAN USUAL

Let's walk in the middle.

THEY TRY TO SQUEEZE THROUGH THE CROWD

-Why are there policemen here?

-What's going on?

FLUSTERED

THEY GOT THROUGH BECAUSE OF MANAGER PARK

-Why were policemen

-They're blocking the road.

BUT WHY WERE THEY STOPPED?

That was a little scary.

WALKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD

Is something happening today?

What could it be?

It must be an event of some kind.

What country is this?

I think it's written here.

Dominican Republic.

Dominican Republic?

DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

ONE OF THE BIGGEST FESTIVALS IN NEW YORK

AS A MULTICULTURAL CITY, NEW YORK

HOSTS MANY INTERNATIONAL FESTIVALS

-Yes, it really does.

They're dressed like the Dominican flag.

WE WANT TO GO TOO

INSTEAD OF THE PARADE,

THEY'RE GOING TO WORK

That looks fun.

SIGH

We're going to work, though.

-It was fun for a moment, at least.

-Exactly.

LEAVING THEIR REGRETS BEHIND

THE DANJANGS HAVE COME BACK TO WORK

-Good luck today, everyone.

-Good luck.

MUSIC IS STARTING TO PLAY IN THE STREETS

THE FESTIVAL HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN

It's crazy out there.

DRAWN TO THE MUSIC COMING FROM OUTSIDE

This is the real American experience.

EVERYONE'S COMING TO SEE

We're in such a great spot

to watch the parade.

-The festival is right outside.

-Front-row seats.

THEY CAN HEAR THE FESTIVE MUSIC

RIGHT OUTSIDE THE SHOP

THEY'RE AT LEAST ABLE TO ENJOY

THE SOUNDS OF THE FESTIVAL

It's nice. It's like background music.

NOT BEING ABLE TO GO OU

AND DANCE TO THIS FESTIVE MUSIC

MAKES EVERYONE WANT TO DANCE EVEN MORE!

ALL RIGHT, THAT'S I

It's crazy out there.

A COUPLE'S DANCE

PERFECTLY SYNCHRONIZED

UNLEASHING HER INNER DANCER

JUST LIKE THE FESTIVAL OUTSIDE,

THEY'RE DANCING INSIDE THE SHOP TOO

AN IRRESISTIBLE BEA

THAT HAS EVERYONE DANCING

Hey, Taekwondo boy.

I can kick. My dad is a Taekwondo coach.

Can you do a spinning kick too?

Of course, I can.

-Do you want to see?

-Yes.

WHAT CAN THE SON OF A TAEKWONDO COACH DO?

You can actually do it.

THIS IS TAEKWONDO

That hurt.

AT THIS POINT, THEY HAD NO IDEA

WHAT KIND OF TROUBLE

THIS MERRY FESTIVAL WOULD BRING THEM

FOUR HOURS LATER

UNLIKE THE JOYFUL ATMOSPHERE FROM BEFORE,

THE MOOD AT DANJANG

HAS BECOME VERY SERIOUS

WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED?
