Actress Ha Ji-won's Campus Romance, Running a Face Painting Booth at Kyung Hee University Festival

Actress Ha Ji-won showed herself communicating with fellow students by transforming into a freshman at a university festival site. In the JTBC content 〈Jiwon, Class of 2026〉 video, the process of Ha Ji-won enjoying campus romance while running a face painting booth at the Kyung Hee University autumn festival site is captured.

"Because I wanted to do it proactively"... Sincerity conveyed through the face painting booth

In the video, Ha Ji-won expressed her intention to participate proactively by doing face painting herself during this festival. Having been unable to participate in the last festival due to performance schedules, she decided to approach fellow students by directly operating a booth this time. Ha Ji-won shared her motivation for participating, saying, "Because I wanted to do something proactively during this festival, I thought, 'how about doing face painting?'"

The way the booth was operated also drew attention. Instead of charging a fee, Ha Ji-won provided face painting on the condition of subscribing to the channel and uploading to Instagram Stories, communicating friendly with fellow students. She showed a warm side to those who visited the booth by saying, "I'll do a good job," and demonstrated her drawing skills while mentioning she is a senior from the College of Fine Arts.

Various requests continued on-site. For a student who wanted a cat style, Ha Ji-won drew it as a "street cat feel," and for a student who wanted a specific design, she worked meticulously by requesting to see a photo. Additionally, in response to a request to draw a condensed version of the logo for the College of Human Ecology band club 'Ten Days', she presented a design containing her own unique touch.

"From tomatoes to Kirby"... Various designs contained in students' requests

Students who visited the booth confirmed Ha Ji-won's drawing skills and requested various designs. In the video, various works continued, from requests to draw a 'tomato' to the Nintendo character 'Kirby', and a design that condensed the band club's logo. Based on the requested characters and patterns, Ha Ji-won presented designs tailored to each student's atmosphere.

Reactions from students recognizing Ha Ji-won also continued on-site. Ha Ji-won responded to students who recognized her and identified as fans by personally giving autographs or taking selfies together. In particular, one student expressed their fandom, saying, "You are so beautiful that my hands are shaking right now," and Ha Ji-won responded to this, making the atmosphere of the site soft. Ha Ji-won showed a friendly side like a freshman, such as giving autographs to those who recognized her or taking selfies with students who said, "It's my first time seeing a celebrity."

Campus as the night deepens, enjoying the 'night of lights' amidst the festival heat

After finishing the operation of the face painting booth, Ha Ji-won enjoyed the night festival by touring various parts of the campus where the festival heat was increasing. In the latter half of the video, she described the festival site, which became more lively as the night deepened, as a 'night of lights' (bul-ya-seong), and fully enjoyed the hot atmosphere no less than a club.

Ha Ji-won experienced the romance of university days while looking at the food and various booths at the festival site. She also watched as external booths were applied for and operated by groups such as student councils or clubs. Ha Ji-won expressed the joy of campus life, saying, "The joy I enjoyed after entering Kyung Hee University," and shared the lively atmosphere of the site as the festival night deepened.
