A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Kimdo Salon, customers often noticed an unusual occurrence—every Wednesday afternoon, a delivery driver would arrive with boxes of mysterious items. No one knew what they were for until one day, when a regular dared to peek inside... Curious as ever, our brave regular sneaked a glance and found nothing but tiny packets filled with glittery powder. Turns out, it was Wednesday’s special—a secret dusting service for neighbors’ trees! Now every Thursday morning, you can see him waving cheerfully from his balcony, covered head-to-toe in colorful leaves.

2. At Kimdo Salon, every Thursday morning around nine, a neighbor would arrive with a peculiar basket filled with freshly baked goods. No one knew where he got them or why only on Thursdays. One day, a new intern asked the manager, ‘Who’s that mysterious neighbor?’ The manager shrugged and said, ‘Just ignore him—he always forgets to pay.’ And so, the Thursday deliveries continued, becoming part of Kimdo Salon’s unique charm until someone finally forgot to bring change for a large tip.

3. At Kimdo Salon, a regular exclaimed one day, ‘I’m starting to think my haircut appointment is actually a date!’ Every Tuesday evening, a charming stranger began arriving precisely when she did. One night, while they were deep in conversation about their favorite Korean dramas, the salon door swung open, revealing a confused delivery driver holding a bouquet of flowers meant for someone else. The couple burst out laughing, realizing it was fate—or maybe just another Tuesday at Kimdo Salon.

4. At Kimdo Salon, on those rare cloudless days of autumn, a peculiar phenomenon occurred. Every Tuesday afternoon, precisely when the sun dipped below the rooftops, a shadowy figure in a long overcoat would appear and sit in the corner window seat. One day, a regular customer arrived with an unusual request: could they please book the mysterious figure’s spot? The manager shook their head with a smile, replying that it was always occupied by ‘the usual suspect.’ Turned out, the shadowy figure was just an enthusiastic delivery driver who loved watching the sunset while sipping tea.
