Lee Young-Ae is back. Filipinos might know her better as Dae
Jang Geum, her character in “Jewel in the Palace”. It was a watershed moment
for Philippine TV as the first Korean teleserye that captured the hearts of
Filipinos everywhere, and thus started a trend that continues to this day.
After the tremendous success of this series, Young Ae chose to step back from the
limelight, but this year she is returning to a new drama, which has caused much
excitement in the entertainment world and among her multitude of fans. Along
with her acting comeback, she has become the ambassador of Hurom Slow Juicer.
It could not have been a more perfect fit.

“I’ve used Hurom for long time and I feel better and
healthier than before,” declares Young-Ae. “There are two ways to make a juice,
blending and slow squeezing. To get more nutrition, I love to use Hurom’s
slow-squeezing method. Because when you squeeze ingredients slowly, it
maximizes nutrition.” With her new production currently underway, she’s
definitely going to need it. Young-Ae is starring in Saimdang, the Herstory”, a
historical drama that will flit back and forth between present and the past.
She plays the titular character Saimdang, who was a poet and artist in the
Joseon dynasty as well as another character, a modern-day historian who
investigates the life of Saimdang. It is set to air in Korea in October 2016.
