Actress Ko So-young acknowledged her failure in remodeling her 400-pyeong villa in Gapyeong and delivered a heartfelt apology.
At the moment when she, who was once symbolized by a perfectionist image, bowed her head and said, “I was arrogant,” the sincerity of her reversal captured the public's attention.
On the 25th, Ko So-young shared the current status of her villa through her personal YouTube channel ‘That Ko So-young’. In the video, she cautiously opened up, saying, “It’s been a really long time since I came here. I said to expect a ‘changed Gapyeong house’ but I couldn’t come.”



In the video, Ko So-young took out rugs, mats, and interior items she had prepared for the renovation one by one, but the work was halted midway. She confessed, “I wanted to decorate the house nicely, but I stopped because it was too hard. I was going to show the before and after, but I was too reckless. This is the current reality.”
In particular, she repeatedly added apologies, saying, “I even brought in rugs for this house, but they don’t show. I was too arrogant.” In the middle of the video, when she faced an abandoned vegetable garden, Ko So-young choked up, saying, “I just didn’t come for a while, but I don’t know if it’s a vegetable garden or a weed garden.” Her appearance captured on camera was her bare face without any makeup, and there was a strange lingering feeling in her expression that had let go of perfection.
In the footage, looking at the yard filled with wildflowers, she expressed a lighter heart, saying, “This place is now as it is, whether it has something or not.” Unlike her past self, her honesty now shone brighter than any glamour.
In conclusion, Ko So-young added a realistic piece of advice, saying, “If you want to buy a villa, you should be someone who can manage it.”
Meanwhile, Ko So-young married actor Jang Dong-gun in 2010 and has one son and one daughter. Recently, she has been communicating steadily with fans by sharing her down-to-earth daily life through YouTube content.
