2023 is coming to an end. In the entertainment industry, where trends change frequently, many stars blinked again this year. 

However, there are stars that retain their light for decades. We call them ‘superstars’. 

Actress Song Hye-kyo is a representative example. For 27 years since his debut as a CF model in 1996, he has always been at the center of the spotlight. This year is no exception. 


The beginning was especially different. He is the person who opened the door to the Korean entertainment industry the hottest and widest this year. To borrow his catchphrase, there was not a single coincidence in getting to this point this year. Everything went as he intended and worked hard to do. The K-content representing 2023 is definitely Netflix's 'The Glory'. In this work about school violence, Song Hye-kyo played the role of Moon Dong-eun, a victim of school violence, and showed a completely different side from her existing image. In particular, the lines that expressed deep emotions in a grave tone were outstanding. Lines such as “I will become your old rumor,” “If God helps you, punishment, and if God helps me, heavenly punishment,” “Let’s die slowly and die together, Yeonjin, I’m so excited right now,” soon became catchphrases. 'The Glory', with Song Hye-kyo on its back, brought change to the world. According to the '2023 1st School Violence Survey' recently announced by the Ministry of Education, the proportion of elementary, middle, and high school students who complained of being "subject to school violence" reached the highest level in 10 years. The ‘damage response rate’ was 1.9% (59,000 people), the highest since 2013 (2.2%). This does not mean that ‘The Glory’ encouraged school violence. Rather, it can be interpreted that awareness has grown about the eradication of school violence, and those who had been quietly ignoring the damage from school violence are actively revealing the damage and asking for help. 


Song Hye-kyo's sincerity in this work was revealed once again at the '59th Baeksang Arts Awards' held in April. On this day, Song Hye-kyo, who won the 'Best Acting Award' in the TV category, said, "I won the award, Yeon Jin. I'm so excited right now," and she parodied a famous line from the drama. Actress Lim Ji-yeon, who played the role of Yeon-jin in ‘The Glory’, received the ‘Female Supporting Actress Award’ on this day. It was Song Hye-kyo's impression that came from her composure and wit.

He then gave credit to her fellow actors and staff and said, “Without them, there would have been no Moon Dong-eun.” He also did not hide his true feelings, saying, "I really wanted to receive it," and added, "I worked on two works with writer Eunsook Kim, and I received a lot of love for both. I think writer Eunsook Kim would be an honor to me. I was happy and sad that she entrusted me with Moon Dong-eun, but I worked harder to act. “I wanted to do it,” he said, pledging his next move.

Song Hye-kyo previously appeared in writer Kim's 'Descendants of the Sun'. This work is in the ‘romantic comedy’ genre, which is the major subject of writers Kim and Song Hye-kyo. But ‘The Glory’ is different. It is an unfamiliar work to both writer Kim and Song Hye-kyo. That's why 'The Glory', a collaboration between the two works, shines even more. This is because it is perfect for enriching the filmography of the two people. In technical terms, this is called ‘synergy’.

'The Glory' also showed its presence in various year-end indicators. 'The Glory' proudly ranked 3rd in the viewing time rankings for the first half of 2023 announced by Netflix on the 12th. In the first half of the year alone, it recorded a cumulative 622.8 million viewing hours, achieving the third highest score among all 18,214 Netflix contents.

‘The Glory’ also received attention from overseas media. 'The Glory' was included in the '20 Best Korean Dramas of 2023' selected by the American business magazine Forbes on the 15th. Forbes published an article titled 'The Hurt Song Hye-kyo Leads the K-Revenge Drama with 'The Glory'' on the first day of 2023, saying, "Song Hye-kyo, through subtle acting, protects the perpetrators who took even a little happiness from her." He commented, “He effectively expressed a wounded character obsessed with destruction,” and added, “Even if he achieves the justice he longs for, the wounds he received will not be erased.” In addition, the famous British magazine NME published an article titled '10 Best Korean Dramas of 2023' on the 18th and ranked 'The Glory' first.



Song Hye-kyo did not neglect to promote Korea to the world and set history straight as a 'Korean star' before becoming a 'Korean Wave star' this year. On March 1st, she and Seo Gyeong-deok, a professor at Sungshin Women's University, produced a video promoting Sudang Jeong Jeong-hwa (1900-1991), an independence activist who was in charge of the provisional government of the Republic of Korea. It is significant in that it uncovered female independence activists who had been relatively neglected. Song Hye-kyo also narrated MBC's 'Grandma is Back', a special documentary about Japanese military comfort women victim Lee Yong-soo, which aired on March 1.

On Liberation Day, she produced and distributed a guide to the Korean Independence Movement historical sites in Hawaii in commemoration of this year's '120th Anniversary of Korean Immigration to the Americas.' This guide, produced in Korean and English, provides a detailed explanation of the Korean independence movement in Hawaii, the site of the Honolulu Korean National Association General Assembly Hall, the site of the Korean Association Hall, and the Oahu Cemetery. She also donated a large relief work of independence activist Cho Myung-ha to Taipei Korean School in Taiwan last November.

It has already been more than 10 years since Song Hye-kyo took this step with Professor Seo. The media and public opinion are not as interested in seemingly routine good deeds as they used to be. But the purpose of this is not to attract public attention in the first place. So, we have been quietly walking the same path for over 10 years without any consequences. This is not much different from the overall life trajectory of actress Song Hye-kyo. Specialness within familiarity, consistency within specialness. This is the biggest advantage he has.  

Song Hye-kyo deserves a toast as she spends 2023.

For your extraordinary self. 
To the cheering public.
