Actress Song Ji Hyo opened up in a recent interview where she revealed her honest thoughts about turning 40 and what that means for her thoughts on marriage and Running Man.
Although she’s still in her late 30s in international age, Song Ji Hyo turned 30 in terms of Korean age. She confessed that she puts not much importance on the concept of age and is completely happy with where she is now.
I don’t set concepts to age. The only hard part about becoming forty is that your rate of recovery is slower. I’m happy right now because I feel like I can do more things. I feel like I’m now able to feel things that I haven’t been able to before.
I can challenge myself to do it and think about it, so I like myself much more right now.

As per the conservative culture of Korea, she was asked when she plans on getting married. But Song Ji Hyo broke the norms by confessing that she has no plans to marry yet.
She’ll be open to the thought if someone worthy comes along, but she’s happily content with her solo lifestyle!
It’s still hard to take care of myself, so I can’t take care of anyone else right now. I’m fine with my current lifestyle. I love it.
Unless someone who I feel can change my mind comes along, I’m very happy at the time being. I love being with my dog.

I’m not usually the one to think about these things, but as I end my 30s, I wonder how I’ll be spending my 40s.
Even if I’m not filming Running Man in my 40s, I believe I’ll be working hard on something else.
