Korea’s Most Iconic Actresses In Their 50s Shock Netizens After Going Barefaced Together

Actresses Chae Si Ra and Lee Young Ae are two household names; As “OG” goddesses of their eras, Chae and Lee have been setting beauty standards in Korean entertainment since the 90s.

So when these two were spotted in a picture together, barefaced and embracing their most natural looks, the internet went wild.

In a much-appreciated update, Chae commented that this was the “first time Young Ae and [she] were photographed together in the same frame.” Flaunting just a tint of lip color, the actresses showed off their gorgeously aging visuals…

…to which the comments could not refrain from praising how “realistic” and “natural” yet “beautiful” the actresses looked.

• “This is such a realistic photo.”
• “Wow, I love how natural this is without the heavy makeup.”
• “Si Ra, you’re still as beautiful as ever. Even when you age and end up with more wrinkles, I think you’ll look beautiful. Like Audrey Hepburn!”
• “Whoa, these ladies don’t need filters. They’re gorgeous without.”

Chae Si Ra debuted in 1985 with a role in a KBS teen K-Drama, while Lee Young Ae debuted in 1990 with a chocolate commercial alongside Andy Lau. While the two actresses have never worked together, it seems their friendship developed over their shared career paths!
