A man who was obviously in his middle twenties took over the platform, shocking everyone to see a man bestowed with great power at such a young age. Aside from his youth that everyone was in awe of, he was handsomely good-looking. He had milky white skin, dark brows, and innocent eyes, and he had leadership written all over his face. When he began to speak, no one dared to say a word or move a muscle. He had all attention.

                Kim Jun Myeon said his greetings and introductions. He introduced himself and the workshop, the rules, the conditions, and the contract that each of them would be signing. Then he began to explain the year's theme and what shall happen during the workshop. His keen eyes wandered among the participants, and easily like an eagle's eyesight, spotted his friend, Kim Jongin, and the girl from high school, Im Yoona. A gentle smirk left his lips though nobody even knew about what was on his mind.

                "You may have noticed already, but having the utmost responsibility to explain every detail of this event, each one of you in here is actually Asian." Everybody began to look at each other, and suddenly realized that fact. Some though, have already noticed from the beginning and weren't surprised at all. "And that is because Asian industry had risen, not only here in Asia, but also in a few Western countries. That is why this year's Glitter theme is Asian Glimmer. Like before, we have gathered every model or actress or artist that has the potential to become Glitter's next cover model. 36 models are infront of me, by the time this project is over, there will only be one last model standing, proving his or her abilities. If you have the skill, the ability, and the potential, then you can be this last model staying strong. If you don't, make sure you'll have friends to say farewell to." Then he paused and looked at his audience's reaction. Everyone has taken in what he said seriously, and the air became tense all of a sudden.

                Yoona scanned all the faces in the room. She wondered what each person would be willing to sacrifice for the reputable title. And she also wondered how much she wanted to possess a position that she actually took no interest in. It was all for the sake of work and not for the obsession of fame. But a part of her knew that there was something driving her to win this competition.

                “9 am sharp tomorrow, each one of you is expected in this same building with your clothes and things packed. You shall be taken to a place where you’ll live until the competition is over.” The speaker finished.         

                2 hours had passed since the meeting had started, and now that it had been adjourned, it paved way for the participants to interact with each other and make friends. Knowing that socializing plays a very great role in everything, Yoona stayed with the two people she first met. They decided to check out the malls in Seoul and probably shop for a few clothes and things that they might want to take with them the following day.

            “I was honestly surprised when I saw that handsome man a while ago. I swear only a few men could ever handle business at a young age and be handsome at the same time.” Sooyoung said as she got into a taxi, her voice impressed. Yuri and Yoona held the same thought and nodded in agreement. “He has an overwhelming charisma.” Yuri commented. “He’s kind of scary in a way.” Yoona added, picturing how everyone went dead silent when he spoke. The two laughed. After a few talks about their impressions on everyone, they finally reached the nearest mall. They decided to shop for clothes first and then eat some Korean food that they’ve missed.

            Yoona recognized the setting of the mall since she’s been there before so she guided them. Since each wanted to go on certain shops, they decided to separate and meet later in a classic restaurant. Yoona headed off for her favorite shops. First, she went for Louis Vuitton, Prada, Gucci, and a few for well-known shops, and then went to Blanc and Eclare. While checking the dresses and scarves, she spotted a classic white cashmere dress and another version of it in a black color. She wondered which one she should buy. She held the black one and admired the elegance it gave off in contrast to its dark beauty. She looked at the white one and it certainly also gave off a pure energy that called to her. She couldn’t decide. “You’d look angelic in the snow-white one.” A voice behind her suggested. She certainly knew whose voice it was. She swiftly looked over her shoulder and found the boy she met before in another mall. Luhan.

          “The white one would suit you better.” He smiled as he spoke. Yoona couldn’t help but blink. “Thanks.” She said, not knowing what to say. “So meet again for the third time.” She spoke what was on her mind. “Is that bad?” Luhan asked playfully. “Not really. I didn’t know you were a model though.” Yoona answered back. “Now that you mentioned that, I remember that I should tell you that your incognito attire last time didn’t work out.” He replied smiling. Yoona laughed. “You going to buy as well?” She asked, curious about why he was there. “No. I’m supposedly here to visit the owner of this fashion brand, but it seems that she isn’t here.” He gazed at the shop with only the customers and the saleslady. “You’re friends with the owner of this fashion brand?” Yoona asked in surprise. “Yeah. I was in the same agency with her before.” His voice trailed. The saleslady approached them. Yoona smiled as she handed both dresses to her and followed her to the counter. “You’re still buying both?” Luhan asked. “Yeah. White doesn’t always mean angels. Sometimes darkness shines with elegance.” Yoona told him as she gave her card to pay for the high-class dresses. Luhan couldn’t help but admire her words and feel amused. Wit and beauty combined is a killer.
