NJH: I generally like to put on perfume which led me to choose fragrance. But In particular, Post Essay's significance / prominence left an impression on me. The story that, in our daily lives, small but precious moments are preserved through smells - is revealed through Post Essay. Even though these small moments pass me by as I passed each day with busy activities , I try hard to preserve these moments . That smells can record and keep these stories is very interesting to me . Of course, the fragrances smell really good too.
Q. What "Smell" / "scent" means to Joo Hyuk:
NJH: When I smell a smell, memories that were forgotten are recalled . When a refreshing wind blows, I will be reminded of the good memories I have of the days between late summer and early autumn. If for some reason I can't fall sleep and I smell the scent of midnight / early morning hours, it reminds me of the times when I was shooting up till late at night. I believe that there are many people who get reminded of memories through smell.
Q. Which is the best fragrance to you:
NJH: I choose Jan Brilliance fragrance. Actually, each of the 4 types of fragrance have their own attractive points and all of the aromas smell good. I gave a lot of thought to which type of fragrance I like. The reason why I chose Jan Brilliance is because it brings up the image of the fresh smell of mornings and flowers . There is a citrus flavoring added to the refreshing white floral aroma. It made me feel more settled / peaceful and like something really awesome was going to happen. And when I spray some during an upcoming shoot that makes me nervous , it brings energy / vitality (to the set)
Q. The special Joo Hyuk way of spraying perfume?:
NJH: Of course how we spray perfume is quite different from person to person, for me, I will (usually) spray it on my wrist lightly . But if it's a special day, I will spray up in the air and do a lil spin so that it gets gently on my whole body [cute smile and dimples] and that feels really good 😍
