FAIRY FASTING CENTER

Web Drama Series

DIRECTOR

Ji-soo, a popular virtual YouTuber and aspiring singer, struggles with insecurities about her appearance. As she prepares for a high-stakes audition with a major entertainment company, she decides to enter the Fairy Fasting Center to lose weight.

Self-Acceptance, Self-Love, and Personal Growth
Ji-soo, feeling insecure about her appearance and facing the pressure of a major audition, initially attempts to lose weight. However, through her experiences at the fasting temple, she learns the importance of inner self-acceptance and self-respect, rather than focusing solely on external appearances. This story reflects the modern struggle to overcome societal pressures about appearance and self-criticism, and the journey toward loving oneself as they are. Not only does Ji-soo gain confidence in her appearance, but she also grows internally as she faces major challenges like the audition. Through her journey, the audience is invited to empathize with the process of discovering one’s true worth.

Visual Concept for ‘Fairy Fasting Center’

To portray Ji-soo, a character who grew up overly sheltered by her father Bong-seok's excessive love, yet struggles with self-acceptance, I used soft pastel tones in her space, props, and costumes, deliberately avoiding bold colors. In contrast, the Fairy Fasting Center symbolizes Ji-soo’s first step towards transformation, an unknown world where she begins to experience "love" and personal growth. To emphasize the fantasy-like and fairy-tale atmosphere of this space, I focused on using shades of pink and purple to evoke a sense of mystery and wonder.

The setting of Gongju Hanok Village played a crucial role in defining the unique nature of this women-only fasting center, inspiring much of the spatial and prop design. While maintaining the traditional beauty of the hanok, I aimed to highlight the vibrant personalities of the characters and the surreal events within the center. To achieve this, I repeatedly used exaggerated colors like mint and pink, which not only complemented the traditional aesthetics but also accentuated the playful yet profound essence of the Fairy Fasting Center. Additionally, the design of the fasting center uniforms was vital in establishing the visual concept. I personally selected modernized hanbok outfits in mint, blending contemporary style with traditional elegance, while carefully considering both color and functionality.
