MirrorRoid Inc. (Co-CEOs Jung Ji-Hye and Yu Je-Jung) spearheads digital transformation in the beauty industry through AI and AR technology. Established in 2019, MirrorRoid operates two main business solutions: the AI-powered smart mirror solution ‘Mirart Beauty’ and the self-service photo studio solution ‘Mirart Studio.’ ‘Mirart’ combines ‘Mirror’ and ‘Art,’ reflecting the company’s vision of providing users with a new sense of beauty through AI-integrated mirrors.
Mirart Beauty is a smart mirror solution designed for beauty service professionals. It offers AI and AR-driven virtual hairstyle and hair dye simulations, scalp diagnostics, and integrated customer management functions such as appointment booking, treatment history tracking, and digital styling books. The newly launched compact version of Mirart Beauty is easy to attach and detach from existing mirrors, making it suitable for diverse salon environments.
Mirart Studio is a four-cut photo brand catering to all age groups. It provides more than photo-taking—it has become a cultural entertainment space. In addition to four-cut photo sessions, the studio offers self-portrait capabilities, allowing customers to capture unique moments in their style. AR-based virtual backgrounds and props enhance creativity and provide a personalized photography experience. Designed for families, friends, and couples, Mirart Studio fosters a new entertainment culture.
