The image showcases two distinct moments from Cayla, Chung's daughter, at ages 0 and 16, demonstrating how the mother and son duo have seemingly defied the aging process. Chung, now 55, and Lin, 52 (turning the age in October), have both long been admired for their youthful appearances. Chung captioned the post, \"So many years have passed, and it seems that Jimmy and I haven't changed at all. Hahahaha – only the little koala, from that tiny koala back then, has grown into a big girl in the blink of an eye. Time has been especially gentle to us.\" The pair met during their collaboration in the 2003 Chinese wuxia television series Demi-Gods And Semi-Devils. Chung reflected on their enduring friendship, noting that their deep understanding and affection for one another have only deepened over the years.",
