On May 15, Ko So-young shared behind-the-scenes stories in a candid video titled “Drunken Talk with Ko So-young” on her YouTube channel “Just Ko So-young.”
Filmed in a casual setting at a favorite Korean BBQ restaurant she frequents with husband Jang Dong-gun, Ko reflected on her long-standing love of fashion—particularly designer jeans. Discussing an iconic pair of pants worn by Kendrick Lamar at the Super Bowl Halftime Show, she mentioned owning vintage pieces from the same brand:

“I have high-waist, low-fit, and skinny styles—all of them. Each era has its own fit,” she said, adding, “Even though I’ve bought jeans all my life, finding that perfect pair is like finding a star in the sky.”
Disappointment Over Resold Gifts
Ko So-young then shared a disheartening story:
“Before I had a daughter, I used to give away a lot of my luxury clothes,” she recalled.
“Later, while visiting a vintage shop in Japan, I saw one of those pieces I had donated for charity being sold for ₩10 million (approximately $7,500).”Advertisement

Though she tried to laugh it off, she admitted to feeling upset:
“Of course I couldn’t ask for it back, but it left me speechless.”
Despite the incident, Ko expressed a cool attitude toward her past generosity:
“I used to buy rare clothing overseas. I’d think, ‘I probably won’t wear this,’ and give it to younger, slimmer friends. As long as they wear it well, that’s what matters.”
Ko So-young’s Down-to-Earth Style
The actress also revealed that the shirt she wore during the video belonged to her husband, Jang Dong-gun.
“I love wearing my husband’s clothes,” she smiled. “If I’m going somewhere that might smell like grilled meat, I’ll ask him if I can wear his shirt instead.”

According to her, Jang always gives in, despite his initial resistance—offering a glimpse into their humorous and affectionate relationship.
Ko So-young, known for her elegance and refined fashion sense, continues to captivate audiences with her down-to-earth charm and relatable stories.
