Jang Hee-jin expresses marriage and future anxieties on YouTube

During a temple stay in Incheon featured on Moon Chae-won's YouTube channel released on the 22nd, actress Jang Hee-jin shared her feelings of being at a crossroads regarding marriage and her lack of significant social success.

Actress Jang Hee-jin shared her concerns regarding her future and marriage on Moon Chae-won's official YouTube channel.

The video, released on the 22nd, features Moon Chae-won and Jang Hee-jin participating in a temple stay and tea ceremony at a temple in Incheon.

Jang Hee-jin expressed her friendship with Moon Chae-won, noting that she joined the filming to support the launch of Moon's channel.

During the tea ceremony, Jang Hee-jin remarked that as she gets older, living life with such effort feels increasingly burdensome, stating that at her current age, she feels as though she has not achieved great social success or accomplished anything significant.

She continued by saying that while she feels she should live more diligently, finding the motivation to put in that effort is not easy, adding that she feels anxious about the future, believing that today is her most beautiful day and that only becoming less beautiful remains.

She also shared her honest thoughts on marriage. Referring to Moon Chae-won, who has already started a family unlike herself, Jang Hee-jin joked that she felt a bit angry because Moon is younger than her but got married first.

Moon Chae-won married a non-celebrity man this past July. Jang Hee-jin mentioned that while she had a strong desire to marry until her late 30s, those thoughts have decreased recently, leaving her feeling as if she is at a crossroads of whether or not to marry.

Jang Hee-jin asked a monk how one can truly recognize their destined partner, to which the monk replied, "To be honest, even I don't know," causing laughter on set.
