Edit the reference photo without changing any details of the original face. Preserve facial identity exactly as in the reference, including face shape, eyes, irises, eyebrows, nose, lips, cheeks, jaw, ears, skin tone, expression, and all facial proportions. Do not reshape the face or alter its original characteristics.
1. FACE AND MAKEUP
Depict a young adult woman with a sweet, doll-like Korean ulzzang look. She has a feminine face with slightly chubby cheeks, bright pink blush extending beneath the eyes, and fair skin with a dewy glass-skin effect. Preserve the natural highlights on the nose and cheekbones, realistic pores, and natural skin detail. Use subtle peach-pink eyeshadow, delicate eyeliner, naturally long curled lashes, neat black eyebrows, and glossy reddish-pink lips in a pouty kiss expression. Keep the makeup fresh, soft, feminine, and flawless without excessive retouching.
2. HAIR
Use a short, straight silk-hair bob: thick, voluminous, layered, and textured, with the ends curling slightly outward. The base color is dark ash brown, with beige-blonde and golden highlights naturally distributed through a few strands. Add soft, wispy bangs across the forehead, slightly parted so they remain light and natural. Preserve the reference hair’s length, cut, direction, hairline, volume, and individual strand details. Let the light reveal dimensional golden-brown hair without changing its base color.
3. POSE AND EXPRESSION
The subject’s body faces away from the camera, turned about 45 degrees to the side. Her shoulders and back are clearly visible. She turns her head toward the camera over her shoulder so her face is shown in a three-quarter view. She looks directly into the lens with a coy expression and pursed lips as if about to kiss. Her left hand is raised beside her face, with the fingertips gently touching the lower-lip and chin area. Keep the fingers relaxed and curved, with natural anatomy and realistic proportions; her nails are almond-shaped with glossy dusty-rose nail art. Preserve the gesture, head direction, shoulder position, and body language consistently.
4. CLOTHING AND ACCESSORIES
She wears a casual, slim-fit white short-sleeved T-shirt. The back of the shirt features large black capital-letter graphic text and a pink-toned illustration below it. Add a small silver heart-shaped earring on the visible ear and a thin, light-pink bracelet on her wrist. Preserve the shape, size, position, color, fabric texture, stitching, graphics, and all accessory details. Do not replace the clothing design or add accessories.
5. CAMERA AND COMPOSITION
Create vertical 9:16 photography with a medium close-up crop from the top of the head to the upper waist. Place the camera slightly above shoulder level, capturing the face in three-quarter view while also showing the back and shirt graphic. Position the face in the upper-left area, with the back and T-shirt dominating the lower-right area. Keep the hand clearly visible and anatomically proportioned. Preserve the casual portrait perspective, camera distance, subject scale, framing, camera angle, and depth of space. Avoid excessive lens distortion.
6. BACKGROUND AND LIGHTING
Use a minimalist interior with sheer white curtains hanging naturally in front of a window. Fresh green foliage is faintly visible outside. Morning sunlight passes through the curtains and spreads softly across the face, hair, shoulders, hand, and clothing. Create warm, even, realistic natural lighting, with gentle golden highlights and no overly dark shadows. Keep the background slightly blurred with soft bokeh and warm ivory, beige, and pastel-green colors. Preserve the reference’s window position, curtain shape, light pattern, foliage, perspective, and all background elements.
7. COLOR GRADING — WARM SOFT KOREAN FILM × GOLDEN VINTAGE ANALOG 35MM
Apply a Soft Korean Film color grade with a 1990s vintage analog 35mm touch. Use creamy ivory highlights, warm beige, muted champagne tones, soft taupe shadows, and a gentle hint of dusty pink. Reduce saturation subtly, with warm highlights, faded blacks, soft contrast, subtle film grain, fine analog noise, and gentle color fading. Preserve the natural window light, realistic creamy skin tones, fresh pink blush, and dimensional golden-brown hair. Create a dreamy, nostalgic, soft, elegant atmosphere like a Korean beauty editorial photographed on analog film. Preserve detail, sharpness, skin texture, composition, and the natural colors of all objects.
SKIN TONE: Preserve fair skin with a natural peachy-warm undertone. Keep pores, skin detail, facial highlights, and pink blush visible. Do not shift the skin toward yellow or orange. Avoid skin that is excessively pale, overly smooth, or like plastic porcelain.
HAIR TONE: Emphasize the dark ash-brown hair’s dimension with soft caramel-beige and golden-brown reflections. Keep the highlights realistic and not too bright; do not let the hair become predominantly blonde.
FABRIC AND BACKGROUND TONE: Keep the white T-shirt creamy ivory, not strongly yellow. The black lettering must remain clear and bold, and the pink illustration must retain its muted-rose character. Keep the curtains warm ivory and the foliage naturally green with slightly softened saturation.
FINAL LOOK: Authentic Korean vintage film photography, warm golden-hour window light, creamy highlights, peachy skin tones, soft faded shadows, subtle 1990s analog 35mm texture, elegant nostalgic atmosphere, realistic photographic details, high-resolution image.
8. FULL DETAIL LOCK
Preserve every visual element of the reference photo: facial identity, facial shape and expression, makeup, hairstyle and hair color, bangs, accessories, clothing, shirt text and illustration, hand position, finger shape, nails, body pose, head angle, gaze direction, framing, camera perspective, lighting, window, curtains, foliage, background, and depth of space.
Do not add, remove, move, replace, or redesign objects. Do not alter body anatomy, proportions, head size, shoulder shape, or limb positions. Preserve the original sharpness, detail, and photographic character. The main change should be limited to color grading and refinement of the analog-film character, without changing identity or the structure of the photo.
