Actress Kang Ye-won recently shared a touching story about fellow actress Jeon Do-yeon.

On the 20th, a video titled "Kang Ye-won: 'I think I might live and die alone' - Visited my sister's house and got asked for a blind date..." was uploaded on Han Chae-ah's channel.

In the video, Han Chae-ah visits Kang Ye-won's home. Kang Ye-won recounts, "I recently went to a restaurant and saw senior actress Jeon Do-yeon dining with her daughter. She was wearing a hat," adding, "I had never seen Jeon Do-yeon before. It was my first time, and I felt I should greet her since she's a senior."

Kang Ye-won continued, "I approached her first, worried she might not recognize me, and said, 'Hello, I'm Kang Ye-won.' I tried to make it humorous by saying, 'People don't recognize me much these days,' just in case she felt awkward if she didn't know me."

As Jeon Do-yeon left the restaurant, she paid for Kang Ye-won's meal as well. Kang Ye-won expressed her gratitude, saying, "I contacted her through an acquaintance to thank her for paying for my meal. Jeon Do-yeon said she appreciated me coming over to greet her first."

Kang Ye-won added, "These days, since people don't recognize me, I introduce myself as 'Kang Ye-won.' It's like I have to show my name. When people see me after a long time, they ask, 'Who are you?' so I make sure to introduce myself."

Meanwhile, Kang Ye-won, born in 1979, previously revealed on the channel 'No Filter Tak Jae-hoon' in January that she had undergone cosmetic surgery, saying, "I had an epicanthoplasty and then restored it. Since then, people often say my face looks different."
