Short Guy Gets K-POP Makeover into Filipino Superstar

V from BTS. Did he nail it? Yeah, he nailed it. It's not good though. He nailed it. What's going on, everybody? Welcome to another makeover video. Today, the style is a little different. We are going to be making him over into a K-pop star. We're basing it off of V from BTS and Si Hun from EXO. By changing his style and changing his dating app, we're gonna see what happens. And of course, if we're talking about style, you know I need some help from our menswear expert, Levitate Style, a.k.a. Leo Chan. Thanks for having me back. I'm excited to be here. And also, I'm gonna give him some tips. All right, but let's bring in Niko. Hey! Yo, what's poppin', yo? All right. Niko, Niko, Niko. All right, how would you describe Niko's style right now? Looks like you kinda just roll out of bed. You know, it's a comfy day. I like the all black, but then when you go down there, the socks don't really match, the shoes doesn't really match. So, it's all good. You know, just casual, you know. So the reason why we're doing this makeover is because Niko had told me, you were like, yo, I'm not doing that well on the apps. But yeah, so I got a lot of friends that listen to K-pop. They've been putting me on. I've been looking at their style, and you know, I just, I wanna be a part of it. As much of a hot look as we say, like, the Kevin Win is, really, globally, K-pop. That's a hot look. K-pop is really hot right now, yeah. All right, this is our very first K-pop makeover. Let's go. And a big shout out to our partner for this video, East Meet East, the number one Asian dating app in the US with over a million users, and over 133,000 users have actually found partners through the site so far. So you can live stream within the app, which also has cool features and events such as cute face filters, cosplay PK battles, and the most popular Asian Bachelor live show in the US. It's a great way of just meeting new people and expanding your social network. So guys, give the app a try in the link in the description box down below. After this makeover, Niko will join the Asian Bachelor show on August 20th at 6 p.m. Pacific, and hopefully meet somebody. So go support him and show him some love. Yo, what up, Kenny? What's up, man? Kenny, nice to meet you. What's up, what's up, what's up? What's up, man? How's it going? All right, Kenny, so we wanna do something a little different because I know that you guys are known for your fades, but we wanted to do like a K-pop, you know, Si Hun from EXO style. So the most important step is because like, he has a lot of hair, a lot of thick hair. So what we could do is thin it down a little bit, layer it down, give it a little more texture. So is he gonna get his hair colored at all today? Well, if he could do this, we're gonna have like this product that's like wax colored. We're gonna use like a ash gray kind of color, but when you put onto this dark hair, it's gonna look more of like a shiny navy kind of color. So what V has, he has a lot of volume and texture at the back. So you want to make sure this back part coming out a lot. All right, guys, the move's done. What else does a K-pop star need? Eyebrows. I got you. Just like this. I like that. If you work at home style yourself, you want to open up your finger and just... Okay. You're about to be a bantang boy. Yeah. You know, just bring that up. Bring the back part up. Yo, this looks tight. Yo, all right, everybody. I'm here with Peter. You know, he was the barber in the last makeover. Yo, when you say don't wash your hair as much, I think a lot of people, they don't know what that means. Literally, don't wash your hair. What if you put products in it? What does it mean? I think the biggest issue for a lot of guys is that we just like to wash our hair at the end of the day, right? Look at that. Clean. It leads to dandruff, dry scalp, and all that. But hey, we live in a new world where there's sulfate-free shampoo. So come pick it up. 12 pill, got what you need. Yes, sir. Okay. Show. All right, y'all. What do you guys think? Woo! Yo, Kenny, you went to work. This is a photo of Sehun from EXO. And then you got another photo of V from BTS, okay? I love the style. I love the color. All right, man. Next step, let's get him into the clothes. Do it. Okay. Wow, all right. All right. I mean, first of all, a lot has changed. How do you feel? If you look good, you feel good, it's all good. You know what I mean? You gotta go with a clean, white dress shirt. That's an essential. Every guy should have this. Sharp, you can wear it so many different ways. But I love the dress pants. You know, something subtle. The pattern's subtle, but I love the blue color. You can dress this up or down. Of course, you gotta have the accessories, the sunglasses. That's what really completes the whole look. Finish it off with a nice watch. This one here. You know, you can get something nice and clean. This one here, you can get it for like 100, 150 bucks. So we just gave you the hottest Asian look. We're gonna take some new photos, get you on EastMe East, which is the hottest number one Asian dating site. And then we're gonna see how it goes, man. All right, guys. Since you're the menswear expert and you just got on a whole new outfit and are looking like a K-pop star, I'm gonna take some photos of you guys together so you guys can pose. So the posing is not, you don't have to go like this. You can like fix your watch, look down, look away, fix your sleeve, you know, just like fix your sleeve. And then, you know, you can fix your butt. You know, little things like that. It's subtle. I don't know if your homegirls are just gonna be homegirls anymore. I'm just saying. All right, so we just finished with outfit number one. We got some new EastMe East dating profile photos. We got one more outfit and then we're gonna go Soho. Let's go. Before we continue with the rest of that makeover, I just wanna show you how easy EastMe East is to use. Within moments of creating a profile, Nico is able to browse other profiles and live stream with actual people. And EME knows that socializing in person isn't the safest or easiest thing to do right now, but they've made it easy to connect with other people by doing group chats, networking, or like we said, you can get known on their live stream platform yourself. So catch our friend Nico on August 20th, 6 p.m. Pacific, when he goes on the live bachelor show on the EastMe East app. Now, back to the makeover. Let's do it. Okay. All right. So this is outfit number two. This is looking nice. Leo, I felt like outfit number one was a little bit more like Italian. Italian, like the sharp menswear look. I think a lot of guys can pull that off. So what do we call this style? This style, I mean, this is definitely more like a street sharp casual. You know, this is perfect for Soho. Penny loafers, this is the classic penny loafers. You know, on a different outfit, it kind of looks like old man's shoes, like a grandpa pair of shoes, but these are coming back. You can style it in this casual way. Obviously you didn't pick out this shirt, but I thought it was funny because, you know, Filipino, Filipino people are very warm and inviting. Very true. You know, I feel like I'm part of the club now. You know how there's a bunch of stylish Filipinos. You always see them on like Instagram or whatever. A lot of my friends style it. I feel different. I never thought I could pull off the V from BTS look, so. I think when you look at the celebrities, you look at K-pop star, you're like, wow, like I can't do that. That's not attainable. But you know, once you learn where to shop, how to shop, how to style it, it's so easy. And now you look like a K-pop star. I'm curious to see what's going to happen. Like, am I going to get more matches? I'm pretty sure I will, but, you know. We'll see. You know, just kick your leg back, cross, relax, look away. All right, this one, I'm not, I gotta say, you look hot. V from BTS. Did he nail it? Yeah, he nailed it. He nailed it. He nailed it, he nailed it. Okay, now we're sitting down and we're going to build your East meets East profile. And hopefully by the end of today or maybe in a couple days, you have matched with somebody. Okay, Pacific Islander, yeah, videographer, cool. I changed the photos for you. Look at those photos. Yeah, okay, all right. Should I just go for it? No, why don't you just say, hey, Elise, I just got a makeover with my friends. Can I get your opinion to see if my outfit looks like a K-pop star? Okay, okay. Yeah, do that. Oh yeah, she dubbed it, she dubbed it. She dubbed it, okay. All good. All right, so we got some nice fresh cuts here. We got some meat, some cheese, got the bread. You know, it's just as before, like the happy hour time snack. This is my first time having charcuterie, so let's see how I like it. Nice, go for it. All right, so that brings us to the end of our video. Man, Nico, you went through two crazy outfit transformations. All right, so you already got your profile set up. It's been a really fun experience. You know, I love the outfits, I love the hair. And I didn't even know that Eats Me Eats has like a live streaming feature. It's been a pretty dope experience, you know? My friends are into K-pop, I'm a little bit into K-pop. And I never thought I could actually even pull off the look, but I don't know, what do you guys think? I think it looks pretty good. I think it looks great. And I think with the little tips down there, with the style upgrade and also better photos, Instagram photos, like big difference. But it's still you, we didn't like make anything up. There are some K-pop stars of Filipino descent now. Because they're making K-pop stars out of everybody. Yeah, I mean, am I next? I don't know. I'm trying to be fashionable too, you know? All right, yo, I'm excited to see how you doing on Eats Me Eats now. You think that this is gonna be a look that you can stick with? I think so, man, I mean, for sure. I'm gonna wait to see what my friends say. I'm pretty sure they're gonna like it. But I'm gonna try to keep this look, bro.
