Main Prompt Content
"A young Chinese woman in her late teens to early twenties, looking back over her left shoulder with her body slightly turned away, gazing directly and intensely at the camera with a slightly melancholic, contemplative expression. She wears a loose, light-colored down jacket or coat ({argument name="coat color" default="soft tones such as off-white, light gray, beige, cream"}), layered over a dark turtleneck sweater or black hoodie, with a loosely draped black scarf around her neck — classic dark inner + light outer winter layering style. Her hair is deep brown to black, styled in a slightly messy low bun or low ponytail, wind-swept with several loose strands naturally falling beside her face, giving a natural, slightly disheveled feeling. Fair, delicate, smooth skin with soft natural texture. Refined Korean-style makeup: subtle gradient eyeliner, gentle aegyo-sal (under-eye highlight), glossy lips. Large, expressive brown eyes slightly narrowed, looking straight at the viewer with depth and emotion. Neat straight bangs resting on her forehead, soft straight eyebrows, overall soft and gentle facial features. She carries a black backpack with clearly visible shoulder straps. Location: {argument name="location" default="Nanjing Road pedestrian street in Shanghai"}, bustling commercial district, at dusk or right after rain in overcast, damp weather. Background: heavily blurred crowds of people, dense rows of Chinese neon signs and illuminated billboards on both sides, distant silhouette of the Oriental Pearl Tower visible in the background. Wet, reflective ground with puddles. Strong colorful reflections of neon lights, street lamps, traffic lights, and car tail lights in the water. Blurred reflections of signs, buildings, and the Oriental Pearl Tower in the puddles. Overhead wires and decorative lights, rich bokeh light spots created by traffic lights and car headlights. Lighting: soft diffused cinematic light with slight grain feeling, overall cool blue-cyan ambient tone from overcast sky, contrasted by warm yellow, red, orange, pink-purple neon light spots reflected on wet surfaces — high contrast in background reflections, low contrast soft lighting on her face. Camera: medium close-up portrait, eye-level angle, extremely sharp focus on eyes and face, shot on Hasselblad XCD 3,4/75P (equivalent to ~50mm), creamy beautiful bokeh, rich light spots and reflection details preserved in background. Style: cinematic, emotional, urban life slice-of-life mood, street photography + emotional portrait, classic {argument name="color grading" default="teal-orange complementary color grading"}, overall cool low-saturation tones with warm neon highlights, soft dreamy atmosphere. Vibe: nostalgic, lonely, melancholic yet romant"
