For over 30 years, I have been working as a makeup artist and hair stylist, starting in Korea, then New York, and now based in both Los Angeles and Orange County. I was among the first to open a makeup studio in LA, and currently serve as the director of Must Makeup Hair, with locations in both LA and OC.
 
Throughout my career, I have contributed to a wide range of projects in weddings, broadcasting, film, fashion shows, and special events. As a pioneer of K-Beauty, I’ve played a key role in introducing and promoting the unique aesthetics and trends of Korean beauty to the global stage. I’m also deeply passionate about mentoring and training the next generation of artists.
 
Rather than focusing solely on external beauty, I strive to highlight each client’s individuality and essence through customized styling. With a professional mindset and a commitment to continuous learning, I continue to pursue the path of a true artist.
 
My goal is to be an artist who enhances both the inner and outer beauty of each person through makeup, while also growing as a mentor who inspires future artists.

I started my makeup and hair training in Korea, specializing in K-beauty. In order to develop my skills even further, I moved to New York, NY.

In New York, I had the opportunity to work across various fields like fashion/run ways, editorial, commercial, and bridal makeup and hair. This experience allowed me to work and learn from the very best Makeup and Hair Artists.

After nine years in New York, I relocated to California in 2017 and started working for MUST Makeup Hair and become an Associate Director. 

Working at MUST Makeup Hair has been a dream as I get to work with K-pop artists, red carpet celebrities, in various movies, and amazing weddings.

I am a licensed Cosmetologist and also certified in Personal Color Analysis, offering tailored beauty that highlights each client’s unique features.

Studied makeup in Korea and have over 15 years of experience, from training days to working as a team lead. My background includes work in TV, magazines, bridal shops, and wedding studios. I’ve also expanded my career into Chinese dramas and films.

Now I’m part of the MUST Makeup Hair, providing makeup services for models, e-commerce, weddings, and commercials.

I’m passionate about helping each client feel confident and beautiful in their own unique way, and I truly enjoy sharing my skills through both makeup services and private lessons
