package. We made eye contact, and I knew he caught me looking, but in my drunken state, I didn’t care. He didn’t either, and I saw him reciprocate with a long glare at what I had to show. “Shall we hang out in the hot tubs?” He asked. “The girls said they’re going to have a long shower. We might as well do the same.” “Sure,” I said. I wasn’t in a hurry to get out of there. Though I wasn’t quite comfortable with exploring everything in the shower room. When we settled into the hot tub, I saw around the corner several pairs of large plastic seats and small detachable showerheads placed between each pair. “What’s that area?” I asked Julian. “That’s the scrub-down section,” he said with a cheeky smile. “The men don’t use it like the women do. One guy is supposed to sit in front while someone else scrubs his back, arms and legs with a huge brush. It’s a great experience actually—deep exfoliation. You want to try it?” I hesitated a while, then shook my head. The idea of us scrubbing each other while a few random men passed through seemed too awkward. “Maybe next time I pass through one of these places.” “Understandable,” he said. We finished a long soak in one of the mild temperature hot tubs and retrieved some towels from the rack, then exited to the drying room, which was like a large bathroom with 15 sinks and mirrors along the walls. All around us were naked men shaving their faces, tending to their hair, or simply admiring their freshly clean bodies in the mirror. A ... laminated sign in the corner said in both Korean and English: ‘Air dryers are for head only!’ which suggested a few too many guys in this room had indulged in blowing warm air on their cocks and making the staff uncomfortable. Julian seemed to have his own post-showering routine, as he flexed his arms and legs a few times and began applying some kind of strange oil to his face and chest. In that moment, because I was doing nothing but waiting for Julian, and also because I had a massive mirror in front of me, I felt quite self-conscious about being naked in a semi-public space. Instead of sneaking another peak at Julian, I took a moment to admire my own body and appreciate how surreal this moment was in comparison to my normal life. The oil Julian was rubbing on his body smelled fantastic. I asked him what it was, and he said it was a mixture of tea tree, Jojoba, and lavender oils—a powerful skincare treatment that he used every other day. That explained why his skin was in such great condition. For being such a muscular man, he seemed to have quite an effeminate and high-maintenance side to him. I watched him rub a handful of oil over his cock and down his legs. Again he caught me staring at him, but just smiled in response. “You want to put some of this on?” he asked. I passed on the offer, and we proceeded back into the locker room where we had to dress in the jimjilbang’s nightwear. The place had been so overbooked that there were no shirts and pants left in the clean laundry. ...
