'the 2nd career' discovery Lami-ran, Park Min-young and Joo Jong-hyuk were reborn as fresh variety characters.
tvN variety program 'PerfecT Glow' (directed by Kim Sang-a, Gwak Ji-hye) follows CEO Lami-ran and Deputy Minister Park Min-young as South Korea's top hair and makeup experts open a Korean-style beauty shop 'Director General (DANJANG)' in Manhattan, New York, where they personally showcase the true face of K-beauty in a 'K-beauty New York conquest' that delivers visual delight from makeovers, touching humanity and the fun of reality, bringing a fresh breeze to beauty variety shows.
As the first K-beauty global reality show, 'PerfecT Glow' drew attention even before its launch with a balanced cast that combines expertise, star power and variety sense, including Lami-ran, Park Min-young, Joo Jong-hyuk, Cha Hong, Leo J and Pony. In particular, among them, Lami-ran, Park Min-young and Joo Jong-hyuk, who acquired a completely different second career through 'PerfecT Glow,' add fresh fun to the program with their new charms.
First, Lami-ran, the CEO of 'Director General,' also known as 'Rasseo,' is the first face customers meet when they come to 'Director General,' disarming viewers with her warm and comforting smile. She also acts as a warm leader who cares for staff like a mother, becoming the central pillar of the 'Director General' team. Above all, her standout feature is the 'kkukkukku (dress up, dress up, and dress up again)' styling. Every time Lami-ran goes to work at 'Director General,' she presents outfits that reinterpret traditional Korean sensibilities in a modern way, and her use of her whole body as a billboard for K-culture has become another pleasure for viewers of 'PerfecT Glow.'
Park Min-young reveals a variety of charms as the counseling chief of 'Director General.' From the very first day of operation she rose to the rank of customers' 'pursued beauty,' standing tall as 'K-beauty itself.' Park Min-young has been praised for her professionalism befitting a 'beauty counseling chief,' her delicate sensibility, and her sincere, supportive attitude toward customers' worries and wishes. On top of that, like a traveling peddler, she brings countless items and readily provides whatever the 'Director General' team needs, and Park Min-young's 'Doraemignon' persona elicits small bursts of laughter and hints at her talent as a new variety character.
Finally, Joo Jong-hyuk's transformation from 'schemer' to 'shampoo guy' also stands out. Having practiced shampooing for about two months for 'PerfecT Glow,' Joo Jong-hyuk candidly revealed the trembling emotions of a 'beginner shampoo teacher,' provoking laughs from both customers and viewers. Although his 'shampoo skills' are that of a novice, his 'emotional care' for customers is veteran level. With his characteristic sense, wit and sweet manner, Joo Jong-hyuk puts customers at ease and disarms viewers' hearts. His work ability, appearing wherever support is needed, serves as the lubricant that keeps 'Director General' running smoothly.
In this way, 'PerfecT Glow' gives the actively working actors Lami-ran, Park Min-young and Joo Jong-hyuk new jobs as beauty shop staff, drawing out their never-before-seen charms. As they gift local New York customers a 'K-glow-up' and the cast members themselves glow up, attention is focused on the trajectory of 'PerfecT Glow.'
The tvN variety program 'PerfecT Glow,' which is bringing a fresh breeze to the beauty variety scene, will air episode 3 on the 20th (Thu) at 10:40 p.m.
