Korean actress Song Hye-kyo recently spoke out in an interview after her photoshoot, which will be featured on May 17th. The renowned actress openly discussed her perspective on aging, especially in an industry heavily focused on appearance. “I don’t feel burdened by aging in front of the camera. It’s a natural process. I try to show a look that seems to age a bit more slowly than my actual age, but I don’t want to forcibly push away the natural flow of time. Obviously, you age, and you can’t just stay outwardly young forever. In fact, I think I look cooler as I age, with lighter makeup and simpler clothes.” Song commented.
Song Hye-kyo also talked about her recent work on the movie “Dark Nuns” following her role in “The Glory.” She expressed the intensity of her previous role, “During the filming of ‘The Glory’, I didn’t have personal time as Song Hye-kyo. I lived as Moon Dong-eun every day for almost 7 months, from the moment I woke up to the moment I went to sleep. When the project ended, the emptiness was significant because I was no longer Dong-eun. It was an emotionally exhausting drama, and the character had gone through human pain, which made it even more so. It took quite a while, but now I’ve fully let go of Dong-eun, allowing me to start a new project. ‘Dark Nuns’ is about two nuns struggling to save a child possessed by an evil spirit. It’s a ‘female film’ with women leading the narrative. The occult genre heavily relies on post-production, so I’m curious about how the completed work will feel since I’m acting while imagining the CG. It’s difficult, but just as fun, and it’s my first time attempting this kind of acting. The expressions are new and different from Dong-eun, which is fascinating.”
The June issue of Harper’s Bazaar Korea will feature Song Hye-kyo’s pictorial and interview. Harper’s Bazaar’s Instagram and SNS platforms will provide access to additional content, including fashion films.
