Quotes

“It made me think about how I would be at 38 years old. After a long-time love passes and even while liking your career, sometimes a woman in her mid-30s feels a bit sad.”

“The feeling of a woman past her mid-30s who has a job she loves and thinks to herself about what if she had gone all-in with her first love in her 20s—that feeling. The path you don’t take always makes you wonder.”

Lee Chung Ah is a South Korean actress with multiple hits. Although her journey was not always easy, especially during her early days, she managed to succeed with sheer determination.
