Korean actress Ko So-young recently shared the story behind her wedding dress and her vacation packing routine on her YouTube channel, 'Just Ko So-young.'
On November 11, a video titled 'Ko So-young's Packing Routine for Summer Family Vacation (feat. Yoon Seol-i)' was uploaded to her channel. In the video, Ko So-young revealed her packing process before heading to Hawaii with her family. Opening her wardrobe, she commented, "Comfort is key when traveling. Some of my favorite clothes don't fit anymore, so I'm saving them for my daughter, Yoon Seol-i."
Emphasizing practical fashion over pretty dresses, Ko So-young stated, "You have to dress completely comfortably. Long dresses are for taking photos for social media. With two dogs and a big family, it's impossible to stay elegant all the time."
Ko So-young shared her beach essentials, saying, "I take a handbag or an eco-bag to the beach. Wearing heels and carrying a suitcase doesn't match the vibe." She humorously added, "If I wear something too short or off-the-shoulder, people might think, 'Why is she dressed like that at her age?' So, I wear those outfits where no one knows me."
While pulling out high-quality leather jackets and colorful pieces, Ko So-young laughed, "What was I thinking when I bought these? I'm saving them for my daughter. What would I have done without her?"
Ko So-young also shared a special moment by showing the dress she wore at her wedding in May 2010. "Oscar de la Renta personally made this dress for me. I wanted a mermaid dress, but I was five months pregnant with Jun-hyuk, so I opted for something more glamorous. I'm keeping it for Yoon Seol-i's wedding," she explained.
Ko So-young mentioned that her family, who went ahead of her, kept contacting her. "I wish they wouldn't. I want to enjoy being truly free," she said, relishing her alone time.
She humorously revealed, "I don't need to pack much because I can wear my husband's clothes. Jang Dong-gun loves packing while listening to music and drinking wine the night before a trip. But since he's usually tipsy, we have to repack the next day. I enjoy the excitement of family trips."
Ko So-young, who packed heeled sandals, shared, "I'm not short at 167-168cm, but sometimes my husband says, 'You look short today.' It's a bit hurtful, so I bring them for those moments."
Finally, Ko So-young showcased her Chanel swimsuit collection, saying, "I collect swimsuits. I always buy the seasonal signature pieces and wear shorts and rash guards at the beach because of the waves."
