The "Pawn" star Ha Ji-Won is 43 yet does not look a day older than someone in her 30s. She can even pass off as being in her 20s! She has always been generous about her skincare routine secrets though, so fans would just have to take note to have her youthful glow.
Ha Ji Won Skin Care 2021: Soju + Lemons is the Key?
The actress does not do acting alone. She's also a singer and a social activist. And yet, despite her very busy life, none of the daily stresses can be seen on her face. In an interview with Access Showbiz Tonight, the host noticed her youthful complexion and could not resist asking what her regimen is.
Instead of being selfish about her secret weapon as some women would have, Ha Ji-Won was totally game to answer the question. First, she said she laughs a lot and that is the key to having tighter facial skin. Of course, that's not just it. She then blurted out that eating lemons is her ultimate weapon against fine lines and wrinkly skin. She does not eat just one lemon a day - which can be too sour for the ordinary person already - but three! However, the actress believes that it is precisely the sourness of the lemons that are keeping aging signs at bay.
"Eating lemons is also my secret, " she said. "I eat three lemons a day. As the lemons are sour, it has the effect of uplifting my face and prevents wrinkles."

As we said, she is really generous about her secrets. In another interview with One TV Asia, she provided several more tips to look like half her real age. She said she puts on a facial skin mask daily to keep the face supple and soft. But consistent with her other interview, she highlighted the role of lemons once more. She said that she has a soju cocktail that she whips up herself to help her complexion stay young and smooth.
The cocktail is actually easy to make since she already provided all the details already. According to the "Empress Ki" actress, the miracle cocktail that she swears by just has three ingredients apart from the soju - lemons, tonic water, and honey.
For every serving of this soju cocktail, you only need 1/3 of a can of tonic water, a spoonful of honey, and three diced lemons. She really cannot have less than three lemons a day after all.
Every time I drink this, I get compliments about my skin the next day," she said.
Ha Ji Won Impressed in "Pawn" Movie
The most recent project that fans can catch Ha Ji Won's superb acting skills is the movie "Pawn." Like her skin, her acting skills certainly do not get old and rusty no matter how much time has passed. The movie is her first after taking a hiatus for four years, and yet her performance still garnered massive praises.
"Pawn" is about Doo Seok, played by Sung Dong-Il. Doo Seok is a hated debt collector who looks quite intimidating but is in reality, actually soft-hearted. One day, as he tried to collect a debt from an illegal immigrant named Myung Ja, played by Kim Yoon Jin, he ends up having the debtor's daughter as collateral. The mother had given her child away herself. Ha Ji Won plays the older version of this child given away.
Obviously, it was a tearjerking movie, and the message it was trying to send out was received properly because of Ha Ji Won's impeccable acting.
