A K-pop Idol 50.2

The employee of the record label helped Alex out of the car and then they entered the beauty salon in front of them.  The feminized man just couldn't believe in his “luck”. Immediately after being discharged from hospital, he was taken directly to a salon, where they would certainly make him look even more like a living Asian doll.

"This is my life now. This is who I am"he thought, feeling depressed. "At least until the end of that damn contract! Then, I'll have to find a way to look like an American man again." Would that be possible? He looked so different now… That transformation was quite unbelievable… Alex decided, once again, not to think about it at that time or he would go crazy.

The feminized man had already been in other beauty salons, of course, but none like that one. The place was a huge and extremely fancy, with marble floors, light pink walls, and a lot of flower pots. What made him puzzled was the fact that the place was apparently empty. The only sound he could hear was the soft background music.  What was going on?

Before Alex could ask that to the man, a young woman appeared in the place. She was wearing a uniform of the same color of the salon walls, and was smiling warmly.

"Good morning, sir" she said to the man. "It is good to see that you managed to get here on time. "So,this is our new star?" she asked, looking at Alex.

"Yes. Her name is Kim Hana."

"Nice to meet you, Kim Hana! I'm Lee Sojin. The other girls and I were eager to finally meet you. Oh, you already look so fabulous! You certainly are one of the most gorgeous girls I have ever seen! We'll have to be very creative to make you look even better” she giggled. “But don't worry, Miss. All the girls here are very competent. That's why this is known as the best salon in Seoul!"

"Thanks" Alex said with downcast eyes,again feeling embarrassed. "But…Hmm… where are the other clients?"

"Oh, we canceled all the other appointments. All the girls will take care exclusively of you, isn’t that great? Well, you deserve it. You'll be a star pretty soon and today is a very important day for you. I can only imagine how you must be feeling excited!”

"But what will happen..."

"Enough talk, honey. We only have a few hours to get you ready. We have to start now!”

The young woman then dragged Alex to a kind of dressing room where she gave him a flamboyant robe which looked more like a kimono and flip-flops.

"You can get changed here. Meanwhile, I'll tell everyone you arrived. I'm sure that you'll enjoy your time here, sweetie. We’re going to do the full service!!”

And with that, she left the place, making Alex even more apprehensive…
