Song Hye-kyo “NO age burden, I don’t want to forcibly push away the natural flow of time”

In an interview following the photoshoot released on May 17th, Song Hye-kyo shared her thoughts, “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.“

Regarding the movie “Dark Nuns”, which she is currently filming after “The Glory”, she said, “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.”
