Dire Plaits
Description
To raise his children well, single father Jongdae is determined to develop whatever skills he needs to, even if that means staying up late crouching over a giant doll head, watching how-to-braid videos over and over. At least the guy on Jongdae’s favorite YouTube channel is highly skilled and clearly explains techniques in his native tongue. It’s completely irrelevant that MinStyle is also extremely attractive.
