The 38-year-old shared about turning 40 soon and that it was hard to believe that until she was 20 her parents were very overprotective and she was very sheltered. In her teens, there were a lot of rules so when in her twenties she was experimenting a lot of things. After her twenties and into her thirties, she gained a lot of experience and now she has confidence no matter what she does. Song Ji Hyo said that this is what people call experience and she is looking forward to her 40s because of that. The actress joked that it is difficult physically as her back hurt yesterday and today it was raining. /TISG
