In the program "Fairy Table", Song Hye Kyo shared memories while filming "Autumn in My Heart".
Song Hye Kyo filmed with actors Won Bin and Song Seung Hun, but due to the continuous filming schedule for 3 days, they did not have time to wash their hair or shower.
"When the director saw that the three of us were too messy, he let us take a bath. While I was soaking in the tub at a local bathhouse, suddenly an old lady patted my back and said, 'Eun Suh, don't die!'" Song Hye Kyo recalled.
Eun Suh is the character Song Hye Kyo plays in the movie "Autumn in My Heart". She leaves an impression with her beautiful, pure appearance.
In an interview with JoongAng Ilbo, Hye Kyo admitted that her acting was immature at that time, many days in a row she only slept 3-4 hours, her eyes never leaving the script. The role made the actress a star, becoming a sought-after beauty.

Song Hye Kyo will soon appear in the movie "The Priests 2: Dark Nuns" in the spiritual and mystical genre.
Song Hye Kyo also shared about the challenges of taking on the role: “The highlight was the exorcism scene. It was really difficult to remember the prayer. I had to practice memorizing the lines as soon as I opened my eyes, while taking a shower and washing dishes, to make sure it could pop out at any time.
When filming a scene fighting an evil spirit, my body sometimes became stiff. I also had frequent nightmares. It was a difficult job both physically and mentally.”
