China's entertainment news website Sina Entertainment recently posted photos of Jang, originally released on her Instagram. The website extolled the actress's blemish-free baby face, calling her "a woman who ate preservatives," an expression used to praise people who look much younger than their age.

It wrote: "Today, Jang unveiled her photos while shooting for an upcoming SBS TV series 'Empress's Dignity.' In these photos, she has Korean traditional hairstyle. Although Jang is already 37 years old, her skin is still white and smooth. She looks beautiful and adorable, making people unable to take their eyes off her."
