Actor Song Hye-kyo again expressed his feelings about winning the Blue Dragon Series Awards.

Song Hye-kyo appeared on tvN's entertainment show 『You Quiz on the Block』, which aired on the 8th, and went on a talk show outing for the first time in 23 years. Here, he recalled the Blue Dragon Series Awards, which he received through the `The Glory' award, saying, `Well done at the time of the award I said, 'Hyegyo~' and it wasn't a prepared comment, it was a word that really popped up on stage" he said. Then "I've never complimented myself. On that day, I felt that I deserve to praise myself in front of many people," he said, expressing his true feelings at the time.

On this day's broadcast, Song Hye-kyo also confessed honestly about her difficulties as an actor and her acting slump. "When I was young, I saw my seniors and thought I would be good at acting at that age. But in my 30s and 40s, acting was still difficult, he said, recalling the moments when he was disappointed in himself.




"Repeating similar genres and characters made my acting so boring. `I think it's boring even to me, but how much more boring will the viewers be?' and they thought they were not talented in acting.' However, he continued his acting, reading himself, and eventually came up with an opportunity to grow one step further through 'The Glory'.

Song Hye-kyo then said she felt the importance of 'loving myself' not only in acting but also in life. He recalled that he realized the value of gratitude through the advice of his close writer Noh Hee-kyung. "For five years, I wrote a performance diary writing down what I was grateful for. At first, I was at a loss, but I was grateful that my dog was healthy and the weather was good. Since then, my view of the world has changed a lot."

Now in his 40s, he said he feels "I'm really happy to spend a small day" and smiled "It's good to say pretty, but it feels better to say "My face is relaxed" He said he wants to expand his acting range through various works in the future. `The present is the most important thing. If you walk firmly now, there will be a better future."
