Her thick hair, radiant skin, and vibrant presence left viewers amazed, with many struggling to believe her real age.
Lee Gil-ya’s secrets to staying young
In a past interview with Herald Business, Lee Gil-ya revealed that she drinks at least 1.5 litres of water every day, replaces coffee with tea, and always keeps humidifiers running around her home to maintain skin hydration.
“I don’t drink or smoke. I maintain a regular routine and have been receiving laser treatments at the dermatology department of Gil Hospital for the past 10 years,” she shared.
In another interview with Chosun Daily, Lee added that her secret lies in “consistently doing very ordinary things.” Her disciplined lifestyle, avoiding alcohol, sticking to a strict routine, and staying hydrated plays a key role in maintaining her youthful energy.
How the internet reacted
Lee Gil-ya’s youthful appearance at 93 left the internet stunned.
