Moon Geun Young continued and revealed how she protects herself from such criticisms.
“To protect myself from getting hurt from what others say to me, I just think ‘people are always like that’. I wondered why people like to judge quickly. I think it’s because they are busy. I don’t think they have the time to spend on understanding others.”

“I no longer hate myself. I had so many ‘others’ in my life. ‘Others’ who had so much influence in my life. It would have been easier if I just hated them. But I couldn’t, so I hated myself. But now, things have changed and I am becoming more comfortable with myself and I feel better.
