Han Hye Jin's Epic Gyaru Transformation

Model Han Hye-jin's transformation with legendary Gyaru makeup has become a hot topic. On March 26, Han Hye-jin released a video on her YouTube channel showing her and her close friend Pungja attempting Gyaru makeup in Tokyo, Japan.

Han Hye-jin mentioned Park Myung-soo's successful "Wang Hong" makeup and suggested they counter with Gyaru makeup. Although Pungja was flustered, calling it "too late," Han Hye-jin took the lead, saying, "We're late to Japan, so what can we do?" While heading to the makeup salon, Pungja worried if there were any Gyaru in Japan as big as her, joking, "Being pretty isn't important. We just need to create some embarrassing memories." In contrast, Han Hye-jin expressed her excitement, asking, "Why embarrassing memories? Will we ever have this experience again before we die?"

Embarking on their transformations, the two chose Gyaru makeup and outfits that suited their individual styles. Pungja completed her "Chubby Gyaru" look with blonde hair, leopard print clothing, multiple belts, and fur boots. Han Hye-jin, transformed into a pink-toned Gyaru, exclaimed, "This is so fun. It feels like playing with dolls," and after the makeup, she expressed her satisfaction, saying, "I look so pretty?" After their makeovers, the two proceeded with a photoshoot around Shibuya Station. Han Hye-jin exuded her model-like aura, and Pungja also approached the shoot professionally.

However, once they stepped out onto the streets, both struggled to hide their shyness. Han Hye-jin admitted, "I'm embarrassed," and Pungja honestly shared, "I've stood in front of many people while broadcasting, but this is the first time I've felt this embarrassed." Despite this, they encouraged each other, vowing, "When we feel like this, we should be even more confident," and continued their shoot. About an hour later, after finishing the photoshoot, they added to the humor by revealing that it was actually for their "debut album jacket" and even came up with the group name "Takoyaki."

Netizens who watched the video praised the transformation, leaving comments such as, "I see Anya Taylor-Joy in Han Hye-jin," "As expected from a model, her ability to pull it off is amazing," "She looks like a real person in Japan," "It suits her so well," and "I'd believe she's a 20s girl group member."
