Trial Marriage Husband (Pangyo Couple version)

Chapter 46: The True Oriental Trend

The makeup artist, as well as other staff, were endlessly praising Shinhye's beauty. Because of her charming and energetic personality, Shinhye demanded everyone's attention. Whereas, in comparison, when not working, Jooeun was quiet and peaceful; she didn't like talking. This kind of introverted personality, especially when compared to Shinhye, made it easy for people to overlook her presence and beauty.

"Miss Park, since you are ready, please make your way into the studio to get your solo shoot taken first."

As well as the front cover shoot, there were also solo photos inside the magazine, so Shinhye entered the studio ahead of Jooeun. As she got up from her seat in front of the mirror, a provoking look went across her face accompanied by a confident aura. It was like she was sure she would win. This confidence definitely could not be found on Jooeun. As a result, based on a favorable impression, all the staff had faith in Shinhye more.

Inside the studio. The set is ready. Under the traditional wooden window stood an old table. Atop the table, sat a delicate blue and white porcelain vase and appearing out of the vase was a beautiful pink rose that had recently bloomed. Beside the table sat a chair; Shinhye's task was to sit on this chair and take a photo.

Upon seeing Shinhye enter the studio, the photographer was captivated by her look. All this Oriental beauty had to do was sit on the chair and she would be as beautiful as a painting. If she could utilize her skills to take it a step further, the Oriental Trend would definitely be ignited in the Western market.

"It's rumored this model is comparable to Im Yoona." The photographer's assistant praised. "She must be very professional."

"I have high hopes." The tall handsome photographer reminded everyone to get in position before telling Shinhye, in a friendly manner, that the shoot would be about to start. As Shinhye is very ambitious, she understood, apart from putting in extra effort for the shoot with Jooeun, she also could not treat this solo shoot casually.

"Let's take a few shots from the side." The photographer instructed Shinhye. With the help of the translator, Shinhye understood the photographer's expectations, so she immediately turned her body to one side. She then used her right arm to lean on the back of the chair and placed her left hand on her dress, revealing the left side of her refined face as she smiled seductively.

The photographer furrowed his brows. He was expecting an Oriental beauty, not an Oriental temptress. The photographer captured a photo regardless. He thought maybe she hadn't gotten into the momentum yet, so he directed her to express the intellectual beauty of an Oriental woman by holding a traditional red basket. This time, Shinhye sat up straight; the angle was right, but she had her head down. All the photographer could see was her wide forehead.

The photographer again took a few shots, his expression was unimpressed.

"How could this model be compared to Im Yoona?"

Worst of all, throughout the entire shoot, although Shinhye's personality stood out, she could only pull off one smile and one facial expression. The photographer is silent. He just wanted to complete the job at hand. When the shoot is finally over, Shinhye was shameless enough to approach him and ask how she went. The photographer didn't respond while his assistant turned to Shinhye, gave her a thumbs up and said, "Very good."

Shinhye gave a proud smile. Underneath her refined appearance was a model with no self-awareness. It suddenly felt so easy to hate her.

"Pfft!" The photographer let out a sound of disgust behind her back before turning to his assistant and asked "Is there still one more?" At this moment, Jooeun gently entered the studio. She started off by greeting the photographer politely. Her smile didn't seem forced nor unfriendly, but because of Shinhye's shoot, the photographer is currently in a bad mood, so he could only respond to Jooeun in an expressionless manner. Deep down he thought, even though the model that just left wasn't skilled, at least she had a bright personality. Whereas the model in front of him is quiet and dull. He's expecting her to be even worse.

Because of his expectations, his attitude towards Jooeun is very casual. He casually prepared and casually started the shoot without giving Jooeun any directions. All he mentioned to her were the underlying themes of each photo.

"I really don't know how these women can be called models." The assistant next to the photographer also did not have high expectations for Jooeun.

Theme 1: The gentleness of an Oriental woman.

The photographer isn't worried at all about this theme because Jooeun just had to be herself and the task would be completed. However, she did something he did not expect. Indeed, she did not need to do anything fancy, she just had to maintain her usual composure and simply sit on the chair, but she added in one important factor, her eyes.

Unlike the calm, emotionless expression she originally had, Jooeun's gaze is now focused in front of her; alert and clear. Her eyes were slightly watery with a tinge of red like she's looking at something she love but had to resist. This is exactly the shy, reserved personality of an Oriental woman! Most importantly, Jooeun didn't only bring attention to her eyes, she also led onlookers with her emotions to focus on the clothes on her body. She looked like a woman that had dressed up for the person she loves, only to find the person she loves with another person. Therefore, she felt her appearance was disgraceful and a joke. Emotion and setting blended together; her gaze and the product became one.

"Wow!"

The photographer couldn't contain his excitement. Throughout the entire shoot, he endlessly shouted, "Perfect!"

He had never seen such a skilled model. His heart was so excited it was about to burst. In a mere 5 minutes, Jooeun managed to portray a story, and most importantly, this story was related to the clothes she was wearing. This is how a professional model should be. No matter how beautiful she is, she's meant to be an accessory for the product she's presenting. Most models had the capability to show off their clothes, but how many could become one with it?

This time, the photographer is filled with excitement. He finally felt he found a chance to show off his photography skills. Most importantly, Jooeun is a model that knew how to pick her own poses. She didn't require many directions, every pose she pulled is exactly what is required and every photo she took would make one not willing to delete it.

"Thinking about it, the previous model compared to Jooeun was completely overshadowed." The difference between 'just-a-pretty-face' and a 'real model' is like the difference between the sky and earth.

Afterward, the photographer asked Jooeun to pull off a few more looks. What made him even more surprised was the fact that no matter what he requested from Jooeun, she would be able to respond within a second. Flirtatious, sad, innocent, seductive, she could pull it all off with a simple gaze and her detailed approach. He couldn't help but applaud her.

This type of model completely encompassed the true Oriental Trend!
