Broadcaster Ahn Sun-young shared her personal beauty maintenance secrets.
On the 28th, a video titled "If you don't want to fall behind in your 50s, start right now" was uploaded to the "This is Ahn Sun-young" channel.
That day Ahn Sun-young spoke on the theme "three gaps that widen starting in your 50s." She said, "When I turned exactly ji-cheon-myeong and looked around, it seems to split into about three things. Around 50, first of all, there is definitely a fitness gap. Even without bringing up illness, looking at men who don't take care of themselves, drink and smoke recklessly and live relying on being young, you see they lose skin glow, hair volume disappears, their physique collapses, they get sick and there is a fight with disease," she said, sharing her thoughts.
She continued, "For women, the time when a woman born beautiful can be caught up to is in her 50s. No matter how pretty, no matter how stunning a beauty who dominated an era was, aging exists when they reach their 50s. Usually, a female actor who dominated an era can't stand appearing as someone's mother and stops appearing. Someone who wasn't pretty works hard," she said.
Ahn Sun-young said, "I always felt my looks were ambiguous so I would be too ordinary to be an actress and not fit as a comedienne either. I was always in that middle area that didn't belong anywhere, so I relied on being slim, but after having a child I gained up to 70kg. When I gained weight I looked very old. I had a child at 40. My child is 9, so I am 49, and when the child turns 10 I will be 50, right? The child was young, so I started personal training and exercising from 43," she confessed.
She said, "People who debuted around my age often look their age. Because I exercised hard, commuting between Canada and Seoul, growing my YouTube channel, doing home shopping once a month, and in the meantime waking up early to make five lunch boxes for my child — despite the time difference and that I should be at a physical disadvantage, I can do it. My muscle mass is exceptional. My physical age comes out younger," she said, describing the results of her exercise.
She also said, "Things people can't stop with aging are eyes, hair graying and vocal cords aging. Only muscles can resist aging. If you have muscle mass you have stamina, and if you have stamina, exercising releases positive hormones. The brain becomes younger too. People who never exercise and rely on the stamina their parents gave them, always drinking and smoking, are split at exactly 50. From then on it's a fight with self-care. Eat really cleanly," she explained.
She added, "The reason I can at least go out with bare-faced skin is that I haven't eaten flour at all and haven't eaten white sugar for five years, and I eat white rice once or twice a year at most. I always maintain a 16-hour fast and make sure to have a protein diet, and exercising is not something you do when you have spare time. You have to make time for it. Exercise one hour a day without fail. That's what makes the difference from 50 onward," she emphasized the importance of self-care.
