Here's Why Song Hye Kyo Embraces Aging

Instead of trying to stop it, she ensures to "present a look that's a little more youthful" than her actual age, adding, "I don't want to forcefully push away the natural passage of time."

For Song Hye Kyo, there's nothing you can do to stop it but instead embrace and adapt to these changes.

"Clearly, I'm getting older, and you can't just maintain a perpetually youthful appearance. Actually, as you age, lighter makeup and simpler clothes look more stylish."

This is also the reason why the top star prefers simple yet elegant looks. Whether it's for a casual get-together with friends or hitting the red carpet.

As seen on Song Hye Kyo's Instagram, she is not a fan of drastic hairstyles or makeup but always goes for simpler looks.

However, when it comes to her roles, the top star is going all out with her character choices.

From rom-coms and heavy dramas, Song Hye Kyo appeared in her first ever revenge drama as she headlined "The Glory."

In addition to this, she also confirmed her appearance in the upcoming occult movie "Dark Nuns."

As for her new character, she sees "Dark Nuns" as a "challenging but equally fun" project.

"This is my first time doing this type of acting, and the expressions are different from those of Dong Eun, which I find fascinating."

"Dark Nuns" is a spin-off of the 2015 blockbuster film "The Priests," which stars Kang Dong Won.

It focuses on the journey of two nuns who perform exorcisms to save a child.
