Starting Team Formation!
"Oh my, oh my, this is insane."
"Gunja, you look fantastic!"
"How is it that a Monami look can have such a fit?"
"Sir, you look absolutely great! It's hardest to make basic items look good."
As soon as Gunja stepped out of the fitting room, his parents and the store clerk showered him with praise as if they had been waiting for it.
But this wasn't just a sales pitch or flattery.
Even in casual clothes, Gunja had an extraordinary presence. His natural build was impeccable, and even just in a basic shirt, he exuded a celebrity aura.
"What should I do? Sir, you really need to buy this."
"Really?"
"I usually don't say this, but you definitely have to get this."
"It's rather uncomfortable though..."
"Well, try the next one on. That should be more comfortable."
The clerk, visibly excited, continued to pick out clothes for Gunja while humming a tune. Even as Gunja went into the fitting room with the next outfit, he kept tilting his head in confusion.
Is it really okay to do this?
Purity and simplicity are symbols of a scholar. A scholar's demeanor is to wear only two sets of clothes each season, cleaned and neat. Is it okay to try on so many outfits...?
However, no matter what he wore, people continued to cheer.
"Oh my, you have to buy this too!"
"Black looks amazing on you too!"
Is it really like that? Honestly, He's not sure. He's still not used to modern clothes.
Though he usually wore comfortable sweatshirts and hoodies, such uncomfortable clothing would be hard to wear daily.
But every time he left the fitting room, the praise continued.
"Wow!"
Honestly, it wasn't a bad feeling.
"Wow, you can even pull off such vivid colors?"
"You have such a beautiful skin tone."
"You look great, Gunja!"
Soon, even employees from other stores gathered, as if they came to see Gunja's fashion show.
'This is a bit embarrassing...'
Feeling a bit shy, Gunja still picked out the next outfit.
"Can I try this one too?"
"Of course, try it on!"
No matter what Gunja wore, people couldn't stop praising him. Compliments were indeed both embarrassing and fulfilling. Gunja felt it deeply every time.
Moreover, most importantly, he could see how pleased his parents were.
"Gunja, that outfit is so beautiful too!"
"Must be because he's my son; he looks good in anything."
Yes, this is the process of filial piety. Making his parents happy is truly an act of devotion.
Moreover, for an idol, clothing is like a scholar's writing materials. While luxuries should be modest, acquiring essentials like writing materials even through debt is justified.
