Ko Hyun-jung Stuns with Timeless Beauty in Seoul After Attending Ralph Lauren Event in New York
Veteran actress Ko Hyun-jung has captured public attention once again, revealing her natural beauty through a casual social media post. On April 20, the actress uploaded a photo on her personal SNS with the caption “In Seoul,” signaling her return from a recent trip to the United States. The photo, which showcases Ko’s flawless bare-faced look and effortless charm, quickly spread across online communities and drew praise for her ageless appearance.
In the image, Ko is seen wearing simple, casual attire, exuding a pure and understated elegance. Despite minimal styling, her glowing skin and delicate features stood out, reinforcing her reputation as one of Korea’s most naturally beautiful stars. At 54, her youthful complexion and chic demeanor continue to defy expectations and underscore her status as a timeless icon.
The photo appears to have been taken shortly after Ko returned from New York, where she attended the 2025 Fall Women's Collection by Ralph Lauren. She had departed from Incheon International Airport on April 15, and while in the U.S., also shared glimpses of her relaxed daily life, balancing high-profile appearances with moments of tranquility.
The public response was swift and overwhelmingly positive. Comments like “You look beautiful and serene,” “Still as elegant as ever,” and “Spring has arrived with Ko Hyun-jung” flooded SNS platforms, demonstrating the wide admiration for her enduring charm. Her poised presence and naturally striking visuals resonated with both long-time fans and the general public.
Ko made her entertainment debut in 1989 as a Miss Korea runner-up and rose to stardom through the landmark 1995 SBS drama “Sandglass.” Over the years, she has delivered powerful performances in a range of hit dramas such as “Spring Day,” “Daemul,” “Return,” and most recently “Mask Girl,” showcasing her versatility and emotional depth. She also starred in the January finale of the Genie TV original series “Namib.”
Anticipation is now building for Ko’s next project, the SBS weekend drama “Mantis,” set to premiere in September. The psychological thriller follows a woman who was imprisoned years ago for serial killings, only for a copycat murderer to emerge and reignite the case.
“Mantis” will follow the conclusion of Yoon Kye-sang’s drama “Try: We Become Miracles” and is expected to feature Ko in a complex, morally ambiguous role. Industry insiders say the drama will highlight her mastery in portraying layered, emotionally driven characters.
Ko’s return is more than just a star comeback—it signals a continued shift in K-drama narratives toward strong female-led stories. Expectations are high for “Mantis” to become another defining performance in Ko Hyun-jung’s distinguished career.
