Kim Hye-ja jokes about her natural teeth during makeup session

During a makeup session released on Kyungmin's YouTube channel on the 23rd, 85-year-old actress Kim Hye-ja responded with wit when asked if her pristine, white teeth were natural or implants.

Actress Kim Hye-ja drew attention by revealing white, even teeth that seem unbelievable for her age of 85. When asked if she had received implants, Kim responded with her signature candid and witty tone. When questioned if all her teeth were her own, she retorted, "Then whose teeth are they?" Her reaction, turning a compliment about her appearance into a playful joke, drew laughter.

On the 23rd, the makeup process and conversation between Kim Hye-ja and makeup artist Kyungmin were released on Kyungmin's YouTube channel. During the filming, Kyungmin examined Kim's face and praised her natural smile and teeth. Kim's comfortable expression and bright smile, developed through her long career as an actress, became the subject of the conversation.

Kyungmin told Kim, "Your eyes are beautiful, but you also have such lovely teeth when you smile. The way your mouth corners lift is so pretty." It was an expression of admiration for her impressive teeth and the natural way her mouth corners lift when she smiles. The compliment suggested that her bright smile itself is charming, beyond just being enhanced by makeup.

The praise led to curiosity about her teeth. Kyungmin asked, "Are these all your teeth?" adding, "At your age, many people get implants here." Given her age of 85, the question sought to clarify if her teeth were all natural. Her neat and white teeth were striking enough to prompt suspicion of artificial procedures.

Kim Hye-ja's response was blunt. "Then whose teeth are they? No, they are my teeth," she replied while laughing. Her way of questioning back, as if she had not expected the question about whether her teeth were hers, drew laughter. Instead of a lengthy explanation, she settled the situation with a short, direct remark.

In particular, Kim's response showed her characteristic easygoing nature, rather than making the other person feel embarrassed. Instead of overreacting to the question about her dental state or listing secrets to her appearance, she responded as if the question were about something obvious. The conversation, which began with Kyungmin's compliment, concluded with Kim's witty remark, conveying a comfortable atmosphere between the two.

As people age, dental health is an important factor that affects diet and daily activities. However, it is not possible to judge overall oral health or specific management methods based solely on the appearance of the teeth Kim Hye-ja revealed. What was confirmed in this video is that Kim Hye-ja answered the question regarding implants by directly stating they were her own teeth in a pleasant manner.

Kim Hye-ja, who brought laughter with her enduring presence and honest wit even at 85, became a hot topic not only for her white, even teeth but more importantly for her reaction that instantly turned a question into laughter. Her depth built through a long acting career and her easygoing nature in daily life were fully revealed in the short makeup video.
