Koreans take a sip of youthful elixir every morning! Don’t roll your eyes. There is no way anyone is going to convince me otherwise.

Why? The reason is that just when I was still getting over being tricked by Kim Tae Ri’s age in the K-series Twenty-five Twenty-one, I found out that another actress tricked me!

Yes, not like they tricked me literally, but I thought we all agreed to look our age. Didn’t we?

Stop asking me where we met for the discussion.

By the way, you want to know who this other actress who tricked me is, right? Actress Jun Ji Hyun! Our adorable mermaid in the K-drama “Legend of the Blue Sea”. Tell me why actress Jun Ji Hyun is 42 years old when I have always thought she was still in her 20s. My heart is bleeding.

So in case we are on this ship together, I made a list of 5 Korean actresses who are unbelievably in their 40s.

Trust me, this will blow your mind.

Jun Ji Hyun

First on my list is the originator of this list “Jun Ji Hyun.” She is an award-winning actress who has been active in the Korean entertainment industry since 1997. Unbelievably, Jun Ji Hyun was born on 30th October 1981, making her 43 years old currently. I still find it hard to believe that honestly.

Song Hye Ko

Coming across Song Hye Ko in the series ``Descendant of the Sun'' made me fall in love with her beautiful face and great acting skills, and she swept me off my feet totally with her appearance in “The Glory ''. The numerous K-dramas she has to her name are proof of her long active years as an actress. Although she launched her career in 1996, she was born on November 22nd, 1981. To do the calculations for you, she is currently 43 years old as well.

Kim Tae Hee

Kim Tae Hee is another actress who took a sip of the youthful elixir because she is 44 years old for crying out loud and she looks so young. The “Hi Bye, Mama!” lead actress was born on 29th March 1980 and she launched into the entertainment circle in the year 2000.

Yoo In Na

Yoo In Na who is famous for her lead role in Queen and I and her supporting role in Guardian: Lonely and Great God is incredibly 42 years old! I’m making a mental note to find her and ask the secret to her radiant and beautiful skin if I ever visit Korea.

Yoo In Na was born on 22nd June 1982. However, she debuted as an actress in 2006 after 11 years of trying to be an idol. What Great Spirit of determination I must commend. Thumbs up Yoo In Na Noona.

Son Ye Jin

I really wish to meet Son Ye Jin so I can thank her for doing such a wonderful job in the K-series “Crash Landing On You” because I still can’t get over that masterpiece. Just as you expected, Son Ye Jin made it to this list because she is 42 years old. She was born on January 11, 1982, and she started her acting career in the year 2000. And it seems she was made for acting because obviously, she never fails to deliver.

PS: Do you know Jun Ji Hyun, Song Hye Ko, and Kim Tae Hee are popularly referred to collectively as “The Troika?”

Their ages surprised you a great deal, right? I was too.

Just so you know, there are other Korean actresses who are in their 40s who didn’t make it to this list. So watch out for another list and trust me, you are in for another surprise.
