Korean Actress Ko So-young Unveils Her Extensive Dishware Collection

Korean actress Ko So-young has given fans a rare glimpse into her impressive dishware collection.

On October 4th, Ko So-young's YouTube channel, 'Just Ko So-young,' released a video titled 'Dishes I've Collected Over 30 Years, Let Me Show You.'

In the video, Ko So-young shared, 'After setting up a birthday table for Jang Dong-gun, many people asked to see my dishes,' as she showcased her extensive collection in her $164 million home.

Ko So-young expressed her love for dishware, revealing her fondness for Korean ceramic artist Lee Young-jae's pieces. 'You can't buy them anymore. I inquired about purchasing them at an exhibition, but they were all sold out,' she lamented. She also proudly displayed pieces from Chef Noh Young-hee, Japanese diet rice bowls, and tea ceremony cups.

Opening her kitchen cabinet, Ko So-young also revealed some 'regret purchases.' She admitted, 'I bought a lot of coffee cups, but I don't even drink coffee from them. Even when guests come over, they don't use them. I mostly use the saucers as small plates,' as she showed off famous brands like Ginori.

Holding a large teapot, she commented, 'It's huge, like it's meant for a feast. European brands tend to be larger than they appear in photos,' and added, 'I bought espresso cups even though I don't know much about coffee.'

Ko So-young, who collects dishware sets, confessed, 'I thought I should give them as gifts, but I rarely use them at home,' expressing surprise at finding brand-new items with tags still attached.

She also showcased afternoon tea sets, fruit dishes, and teapots of various sizes, advising, 'When it comes to vintage items, you need to check the condition, origin, and brand.'

Ko So-young shared a glimpse into her married life, saying, 'Jang Dong-gun, being tall, tends to place dishes and cups on high shelves. I told him that's not right,' while also expressing affection with a durable wine glass designated for her husband.

After introducing numerous 'regret items,' Ko So-young reflected, 'You get tired of using the same tableware. I bought linen table mats from overseas but haven't used them because I'm saving them for special occasions. They're mostly for social media,' she admitted. 'I've realized today that I need to stop buying. I've been buying little by little, but there's no more space left,' she concluded, drawing attention.
