Actress Sun Woo-yong revealed that she has undergone her first-ever procedure in her life.
Sun Woo-yong appeared on the 'New Woman' segment of the YouTube channel 'Rolling Thunder,' which was released on the 5th, and shared her recent experience with an eye procedure. At 82 years old, Sun Woo-yong said, "I felt my eyes were stuffy, so I went to an ophthalmologist, and they told me it was because fat had formed under my eyelids. So, I had a laser procedure after turning my eyelids inside out. It hurt so much."
She continued, "I have never had plastic surgery or any kind of procedure on my face in my entire life. Once, after a fight with my husband, I looked terrible the next morning. I must have been frowning all night while I slept. I realized I couldn't go on like that, so since then, I always praise myself before bed, saying, 'Yong-yong, you did well today,' and then go to sleep." She also shared her secret to maintaining a youthful appearance.
She also stated, "When you get older, outward appearances are unnecessary. Your internal organs must become luxury items." She added, "Fried foods are fine for people in their 30s and 40s, but once you pass 80, you can't eat just anything. I eat a lot of fish and only a small piece of beef tenderloin once a week." She also revealed her dietary habits.
On this day, Sun Woo-yong also shared her eight years of life in the United States and the process of returning to Korea.
Sun Woo-yong said, "I was living buried in work without a moment to breathe. One day, my daughter asked, 'Mom, why is the mom next door at home?' That's when I realized something wasn't right, so I quit everything I was doing and chose to immigrate to the United States."

It is known that Sun Woo-yong achieved success while living as an immigrant in the United States, working in sewing factories and restaurants.
She said, "After eight years of living in the U.S., PD Hwang Eun-jin called me. It was an invitation to appear in the work 'History Flows.' I learned a lot about people while working in a restaurant for five years in the U.S. That was all acting training. So, I demanded that my appearance fee be adjusted to match the current top-tier actors' rates."
Through this opportunity, Sun Woo-yong returned to Korea and resumed her artistic activities, appearing in various fields including the sitcom 'Wind Blows at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic,' dramas, variety shows, and YouTube.
On this day, Sun Woo-yong cheerfully shared small stories about episodes she experienced during her time in the U.S., her relationship with her foreign son-in-law, her love for her work, her obsession with Chinese dramas, and her life after becoming a widow.
