Veteran South Korean actress Kim Young-ran has talked about what it's like to get older in the entertainment world. She says that acting jobs have become less common, even though she is still focused on staying healthy and looking well.

A report from Naver says that Kim was in a recent video on the YouTube channel "Real Actresses," where she met up with other actresses Lee Kyung-jin and Ahn So-young. The meeting took place in Ahn's house, where they were able to show off their personal lives and occupations in a very open way.

Kim talked about her present way of life and diet in the video. She talked about why she decided to eat less of some meals while sticking to a strict schedule. Kim started her comments regarding her diet by saying, "I recently stopped eating cake."

She went on to say that she was motivated to change her eating habits after seeing how she looked on a recent broadcast, which showed that she was still committed to taking care of herself.

But soon the talk went to the problems that experienced performers have in their careers. Lee Kyung-jin talked on her own employment situation in relation to their own. Lee remarked, "Well, I don't have any work right now." to give her view on the issue.

Kim agreed and said that she had also not had many chances in the past few months. Kim responded, "I think this year's dramas are over." when asked what she thought about casting right now. "Aren't you sad?" Her response brought up a bigger issue regarding how few parts there are for older actors in the industry.

MK said that the conversation brought attention to the long break that many experienced performers are going through, even though they are still trying to be active and relevant by taking care of themselves and making public appearances.

Even though the subject was important, the actresses kept things light and cheerful. The story said that the three women, who were all 69 years old, laughed and talked about old times like they were old friends throughout their meeting.

Lee also thought about how to become involved in different ways that are not the usual jobs. Lee started her talk about what she has been doing by saying, "I'm having so much fun filming YouTube videos these days," This means that Lee is moving away from traditional ways of making art.

In the end, the meeting presented a good picture of the problems and good things about senior actors in a changing entertainment business. Although there are fewer opportunities, Kim and her friends are finding new ways to connect with their fans.
