Cha Seung-won Opens Up About Embracing His Natural Changes on Radio Show

Actor Cha Seung-won candidly shared insights about his physical changes on a recent radio appearance.

On the October 27th broadcast of SBS Radio's 'Cultwo Show', celebrating its 20th anniversary, Cha Seung-won took the stage as the first special DJ.

During the show, Cha revealed, "If I don't shave, my facial hair grows up to my eyes." He humorously added, "I sometimes wonder if it's a medical condition seeing how my beard covers my entire face."

Cha Seung-won expressed a natural acceptance of the changes that come with age. He admitted that unlike in the past, he can no longer grow his beard long because "white hairs have started to appear."

He further shared, "Without dyeing, my hair is completely white," and expressed his desire to embrace this look for a role, saying, "I don't know when, but if I meet the right character, I'd like to use the white hair and beard to portray a grandfather-like figure."

Meanwhile, Cha Seung-won has been married since 1992 to a non-celebrity who is four years his senior, and they have a son and a daughter. It was later revealed that his eldest son, Cha No-ah, who has a history as a professional gamer, was born from his wife's previous marriage.
