Actress Sa Mi-ja, at the age of 86, is taking on a challenge as a YouTube creator.

SandBox Network announced on the 3rd that it will officially launch Sa Mi-ja's new YouTube channel and release its first episode at 6 p.m. on the 5th.

This channel features senior life content filled with Sa Mi-ja's sincere daily life, long cherished by the public for years, and warm stories shared with her husband of 63 years.

A representative from SandBox Network stated, "Sa Mi-ja's newly launched YouTube channel will showcase lifestyle variety content that resonates across generations with empathy and humor. Based on SandBox Network's studio production capabilities, it will realistically portray her 63-year marriage life alongside her first love and lifelong companion."

They added, "The couple's cheerful banter, everyday moments, and wisdom of life will be naturally presented, offering a unique charm distinct from existing senior content."

In the first episode, the process of directly setting up the YouTube channel will be revealed. Viewers can expect laughter as they see Sa Mi-ja, who is not familiar with smartphones or YouTube, struggle alongside her husband to create the channel, including behind-the-scenes footage showing it took a full 2 hours just to set it up. The natural chemistry between the two, comforting and joking with each other, is expected to be another key highlight of the first meeting.

Recently, SandBox Network has been actively expanding content IP for senior creators and veteran broadcasters. Starting with Sa Mi-ja's channel, the network plans to reinterpret the lives and experiences of the senior generation into variety content while further expanding its IP through collaborations with various brands and e-commerce ventures.

A SandBox Network representative said, "Senior content is no longer limited to a specific age group but has established itself as a new genre connecting generations. We expect Sa Mi-ja's sincerity and warm story, taking on a new challenge at 86, to bring empathy and laughter to many viewers. Moving forward, we will continue to create new content trends through differentiated senior IP."

Meanwhile, Sa Mi-ja was born in 1940 and is 86 years old this year. She debuted as a voice actor in the first recruitment of Dong-A Broadcasting in 1963 before pursuing an acting career. Married to Kim Gwan-su, a former KBS talent from the first generation, she has two sons and one daughter. Sa Mi-ja was diagnosed with myocardial infarction in 2005 and brain infarction in 2018, undergoing treatment, but later shared updates on overcoming her health crisis, drawing significant attention.
