Chapter 106

Kang Jun-ki grabbed Yoo-hyun’s wrist and stopped him.

“Can’t you just go with me?”

“Why?”

“…Lee So-hyun is coming.”

Kang Jun-ki said as if he had made a great decision.

Of course, Yoo-hyun had no memory of that person.

“Who is she?”

“What? You don’t know Lee So-hyun? She’s the queen bee of our class.”

“So what?”

“You know. I… never mind.”

“You don’t have to say it if you don’t want to.”

Yoo-hyun shook his hand and walked on, but Kang Jun-ki ran after him and looked at him face to face.

He had a very serious expression.

“I wanted to see her anyway, but I had no excuse. Help me out.”

“What do you want me to do?”

He looked like he was ready to kneel if necessary.

“Hyeon-soo can’t come because he has to take care of his mother, and Jun-seok is in Ulsan. I don’t want to be awkward there by myself.”

“Is that all?”

“Yeah. Just be my wingman. I’m not asking for much.”

“I don’t think it’s a good idea to go with me.”

He evaluated him coldly from a third person’s perspective.

If he went with Yoo-hyun, there was a clear possibility that Kang Jun-ki would be compared.

He thought it was a joke, but Kang Jun-ki was hurt.

“Hey! It’s because of your company that I’m suffering so much.”

“Alright, alright. Calm down.”

“Will you help me?”

“Yeah.”

“Man, thank you.”

Kang Jun-ki finally smiled brightly.

Yoo-hyun looked at him casually and asked.

“By the way, what are you going to do for So-hyun?”

“I’m planning an event. If you deliver the flowers…”

“Forget it. Not that.”

“Then how about a song…”

His plans were all a mess.

Yoo-hyun shook his head firmly.

“No.”

“Then what?”

Kang Jun-ki shouted in frustration.

He knew for sure that he would make a fool of himself if he went on like this.

“There’s a condition, though.”

“What is it? Just tell me. I’ll do it.”

Yoo-hyun scanned Kang Jun-ki from head to toe.

Then he lowered his head and said.

“To be honest, you need some grooming.”

“Why? What’s wrong?”

Yoo-hyun hit him hard with the truth without blinking an eye.

“Well. I don’t know who Lee So-hyun is, but this won’t work at all.”

“This is expensive…”

Kang Jun-ki dusted off his purple striped shirt.

The collar was big and the fit was wrong. He looked ten years older than he was.

The jeans were even worse.

Even if they were ripped for fashion, they were too wide and long. The ends were completely frayed.

Anyone would think he picked them up from somewhere.

“The problem is serious.”

“Really? You don’t look much different from me.”

“…”

Where did he see that?

Even Yoo-hyun, who was always calm, was annoyed.

That’s when a woman came up to them from the college street connected to the hospital. 

She was shooting something.

She was stylish enough to be called an actress.

Kang Jun-ki swallowed his saliva, but she headed for Yoo-hyun.

“Hello. We’re looking for street models for our dandy men special. We’re going to publish it in a magazine. Can you take a picture? We’ll pay you for it.”

“I’m sorry. I have somewhere to go with this friend right now.”

“Huh, you’re friends?”

The woman was surprised when Yoo-hyun nodded at Kang Jun-ki.

She quickly changed her words, but Kang Jun-ki’s face was already red.

“Haha, I just said that because you looked so close. Well, please contact me if you have a chance next time. I think you’ll look good in anything.”

“Thank you.”

The woman handed him a card and walked away with quick steps. Kang Jun-ki said in a dead voice as he watched her go.

“Do I look that old?”

“No. It’s not that.”

“No way. I have some sense too.”

Thank goodness.

At least he had that much.

Yoo-hyun tried to comfort Kang Jun-ki.

“Anyway, this won’t do right now.”

“Alright, alright. Let’s change. Should we go buy some clothes?”

“Clothes are not the only problem.”

The bangs that covered his eyes.

The electronic watch that looked thicker than his wrist.

The huge basketball shoes with air gaps.

There were more than one or two problems.

He had to tear him apart and rebuild him to make him at least above average.

Kang Jun-ki’s expression became more desperate as he saw Yoo-hyun’s eyes.

“Hey, help me out. What’s the point of being friends?”

“Are you going to do as I say without complaining?”

“Of course. I’ll buy you dinner too.”

“Deal. I’ll spare you some precious time.”

“Thank you.”

That’s how Kang Jun-ki’s makeover project began.

Saturday afternoon, when the alumni meeting was held.

Yoo-hyun took Kang Jun-ki to the hair salon he usually went to.

It was a place that was cheap but had good skills.

Yoo-hyun ordered boldly.

“Manager, please cut his bangs.”

“What! Hey, no way.”

Yoo-hyun ignored Kang Jun-ki’s words and continued.

“Please make the perm roll a bit bigger.”

“Okay. I’ll make it a two-block style with the length adjusted.”

“I’ve never had a perm before… Is it really okay?”

“Haha, of course. It’ll be much better than now.”

Even the designer, who rarely made a promise, was confident. Kang Jun-ki’s hair was terrible.

“Then please take care of me. Jun-ki, I’ll be back soon.”

“Do you really have to go alone? What if the size doesn’t fit?”

“Don’t worry. Just give me your card.”

“I’m nervous…”

Yoo-hyun brushed off Kang Jun-ki’s words.

“Trust me. You said I could spend as much as I want, right?”

“Thirty. No, twenty.”

“Okay. Deal.”

Yoo-hyun took Kang Jun-ki’s card and left in a flash.

Kang Jun-ki asked the designer nervously.

“Does this make sense? How can he shop by himself without me?”

“Haha, don’t worry. Yoo-hyun is very good at picking things out.”

The designer accepted it as a matter of course. Kang Jun-ki shook his head.

They looked like a scam team that had planned everything.

Whooosh.

When he came out of the hair salon, the wind was blowing quite strongly.

Yoo-hyun headed straight for the underground shopping mall where the clothing stores were.

He sighed as he looked at the long line of stores.

Yoo-hyun didn’t go shopping alone just to save time.

He didn’t want to shop with someone else’s will forced on him.

About an hour later?

Ding dong.

The door of the salon opened and Yoo-hyun came in.

He had a bunch of stuff in his hands.

“What!”

“Don’t be surprised. I didn’t spend much.”

Kang Jun-ki blinked his eyes as he saw the receipt that Yoo-hyun handed him.

“Wow, you didn’t spend much, did you?”

“What do you expect from a thousand won?”

“It’s cheap, but…”

“Forget it. Just try it on.”

The designer said as he watched the two bickering.

“How do you like the style, Mr. Yoo-hyun?”

“He looks like a human now.”

“Right? I’m proud of this one. Hahaha.”

Kang Jun-ki wanted to say something, but he couldn’t.

He looked different from before in the mirror.

‘As if the clothes are the only problem.’

Instead, Kang Jun-ki gritted his teeth inwardly.

Then he went to the staff warehouse that the designer had guided him to and opened the paper box that Yoo-hyun had given him.

“What? You bought a watch too? And what are these shoes?”

The bag had pants, t-shirts, jackets, as well as a watch and shoes.

But the price was only this much?

He was surprised that he had bought all this for a cheap price that was less than two shirts he usually wore.

He was even more surprised after he put on the pants.

“Wow, they fit perfectly.”

His thighs were thick, so he wore bigger sizes than they looked.

But they fit like magic.

The jacket size was also suitable for him, who had relatively long arms.

It felt like he was wearing a suit tailored for him.

The shoe size was the same.

The watch didn’t need to be mentioned.

Click.

The door opened.

“Ahem.”

Kang Jun-ki came out with an awkward cough.

He wore neat sneakers under tight-fitting jeans.

A clean navy jacket over a white V-neck t-shirt shone under his neat hairstyle.

He looked plain but special. He looked like a completely different person from before.

“Oh my! How can someone change so much?”

The hair designer was amazed.

“Manager, but…”

“Wow, amazing. Mr. Yoo-hyun is really amazing.”

Like it or not, the designer gave Yoo-hyun a thumbs up.

He envied his sense as a designer.

Yoo-hyun smiled and said.

“It’s thanks to you for doing his hair well.”

“No way. This kind of transformation… Wait a minute. Let me trim your eyebrows a bit. Come over here.”

Maybe that’s why?

The hair designer started to burn his creative passion.The primary upload of this chapter happened on N0v3l--B1n.

He started by trimming Kang Jun-ki’s eyebrows, then darkened his thin eyebrows, added some vitality to his dull face with a base, and even applied a transparent tint to his lips.

“How is it?”

“It’s okay…”

“Right? Ah, I’m satisfied.”

In the mirror, he saw the designer wiping off his sweat over Kang Jun-ki’s nervous face.

He smiled happily as if he had conquered a big mountain.

That evening.

The meeting place was a buffet in Jongno, Seoul.

There were different foods prepared in each room. The next room was having a baby shower.

“This place must be expensive. It’s at least 50,000 won per person, right? Yong-o must have made a lot of money.”

“I heard he made a fortune by investing.”

When Yoo-hyun arrived with Kang Jun-ki, some boys of their age were chatting at the entrance.

‘Investing…’

He didn’t care much about Yong-o, but from what he heard, he seemed to be doing something related to investing.

Like it or not, Yoo-hyun didn’t care.

Kang Jun-ki’s matter was more important to him.

“Hey… are you Han Yoo-hyun?”

“Yeah. Nice to meet you.”

“Yeah. I’m Han-soo.”

“Haha, I know. Long time no see.”

To be honest, he didn’t remember well.

He hadn’t seen him for a long time and he had changed a lot from his past appearance too.

But what did that matter?

It was enough that they shared the sparkling memories of their childhood like jewels.

Yoo-hyun greeted him warmly and shook hands with him.

Kang Jun-ki was the same.

He was busy greeting his old friends whom he hadn’t seen for a long time.

But his condition was not good.

His body was stiff and his speech was awkward.

His face didn’t show much because of the base, but his neck was red-hot.

His rapid heartbeat and breathing revealed his anxious mind.

Did he get nervous already?

“Do you want to go in later?”

“No. Just a moment. Whew…”

While they were there, some kids entered the entrance one by one.

The seats of the large round tables in the large room were also filling up.

Yoo-hyun saw some girls sitting in groups at a table in his eyes.

There were still many empty seats.

“Is Lee So-hyun at that table?”

“Huh? Uh…”

Thank goodness. It paid off to come early.

“There’s still room. Let’s catch our breath here for a bit.”

Yoo-hyun reassured Kang Jun-ki for now.

-Don’t worry. You said you’ve met a lot of girls. You just have to go and talk to her.

He didn’t want to blame Kang Jun-ki’s bluff.
