Hanbokportrait (image)

Create a cinematic, photorealistic portrait using the uploaded original image as the sole reference for the person. Preserve the reference person's face shape, facial proportions, eye shape, nose bridge, lips, natural skin tone, expression, hairline, and overall recognizable identity. Preserve their long dark-brown hair, naturally falling strands, intricate floral hair accessories, and dangling earrings. Do not replace the person, excessively beautify them, create plastic-looking skin, or change their apparent age.

## Wardrobe: traditional Korean hanbok
Dress the person in an elegant traditional Korean hanbok, primarily in pale lavender, misty purple, and moonlit silver-white. The jeogori should have a graceful overlapping neckline, with a pale-purple ribbon tied naturally at the front. Cover the sleeves and bodice with lightweight translucent gauze, embroidered with delicate silver-gold branches, cherry blossoms, and tiny pearls.

The chima should be a voluminous, flowing long skirt made of layered sheer fabric and smooth silk. Give it a light, naturally draped fullness. Let the hem lift gently in a breeze, with realistic fabric weight, fine folds, and light passing through the translucent layers. Keep the garment's cut and silhouette faithful to traditional Korean hanbok. Do not create a Chinese Hanfu cross-collar robe or mix in elements from other national dress.

## Lighting: the primary visual focus
Prioritize cinematic portrait lighting that feels natural, soft, and atmospheric.
1. Key light: Warm morning sunlight enters through a large window from the upper left, creating soft 45-degree side-backlighting. Gently illuminate the forehead, nose bridge, cheeks, and jawline, with natural dimensional transitions between light and shadow.
2. Rim light: Let sunlight pass through the person's dark-brown hair from behind, creating a delicate golden halo that reveals individual translucent strands. Avoid blown highlights and unnatural glowing edges.
3. Translucent fabric: Let light pass through the hanbok's sheer sleeves, skirt, and layered gauze, producing soft lavender and silver-white highlights along the fabric edges. Show the distinct light responses of silk and gauze.
4. Environmental bounce: Use warm reflected light from the courtyard and wooden architecture to gently lift facial shadows. Preserve detail in the eyes, nostrils, and lips; avoid black, featureless shadows.
5. Jewelry highlights: Give the pearls, silver branches, clear crystals, and dangling earrings small, realistic points of light, like fine jewelry photography.
6. Atmospheric light: Show a subtle amount of dust near the window and a few cherry blossom petals in the sunlight, creating gentle volumetric rays and atmospheric depth. Do not overuse particles.
7. Exposure: Use cinematic high dynamic range, retaining detail in the white gauze, facial highlights, and bright window areas. Keep the image luminous but not harsh, soft but not dull, and clear without overexposure.

## Setting: traditional Korean courtyard
Set the scene in a refined traditional Korean palace or hanok courtyard. Include wooden window frames, traditional lattice windows, stone steps, and delicately placed cherry blossom branches.

Place a cherry blossom branch close to the camera on the left as a soft foreground blur. Naturally blur the wooden architecture and lattice windows behind the person while retaining recognizable Korean architectural details. Use warm ivory, light wood brown, pale pink, and misty purple in the background to harmonize with the lavender hanbok. Keep the scene clean and elegant; include no modern buildings, neon lights, or clutter.

## Pose and composition
Use a vertical 4:5 high-end portrait composition. Show the person in a three-quarter-length portrait, with their body turned slightly to the side, an elegant shoulder and neck line, and their head gently turned toward the camera. Give them a gentle, clear gaze and a natural, subtle smile.

Let the long hair fall naturally behind the shoulders, with a few soft strands beside the face. Make the sleeves and skirt flow naturally rather than appearing stiff.

Use the visual character of an 85 mm portrait lens with shallow depth of field. Keep the eyes sharply focused and render the background as delicate creamy bokeh. Maintain realistic body proportions; avoid wide-angle distortion and unnatural head-to-body proportions.

## Color and cinematic finishing
Use soft cream-white highlights, pale lavender midtones, warm golden rim light, and natural dark-brown shadows. Apply gentle cinematic color grading while preserving natural skin tone and texture. Give highlights delicate transitions and retain tonal detail in the shadows. Avoid aggressive HDR, excessive sharpening, fluorescent purple, and oversaturated pink.

The overall result should combine the feel of a premium fashion magazine portrait with classical Korean aesthetics.

## Negative instructions
Do not change the reference person's face or facial proportions. Do not depict a different person, excessively smooth the skin, create plastic-looking skin, exaggerate the eyes, or make the face glow unnaturally. Avoid blown-out white areas, overly dark facial shadows, harsh light, excessive glow, fluorescent colors, low resolution, blurred eyes, malformed fingers, extra arms, incorrect hanbok tailoring, Chinese Hanfu elements, modern clothing, cartoon styling, excessive particles, cluttered backgrounds, overlaid text, or watermarks.

## Final goal
Preserve the reference person's natural beauty and make the pale-purple traditional hanbok the centerpiece. Use precise side-backlighting, soft fill light, a rim of light through the hair, and light passing through the sheer fabric to create a cinematic hanbok portrait that feels as though it was photographed in a cherry-blossom courtyard in the morning. Make the light's direction, depth, texture, and atmosphere the image's most compelling visual feature.
