Canadian actress Christy Chung, 55, and Taiwanese singer Jimmy Lin, 51, have sparked online admiration by recreating a photograph taken 16 years ago. Chung posted the images on Instagram, showcasing how little she and Lin appear to have changed, while her youngest daughter, Cayla, has grown from a toddler into a 16-year-old.
So many years have passed, and it seems that Jimmy and I haven't changed at all. Only the little koala, who was just a tiny koala back then, has grown into a big girl in the blink of an eye. Time has been especially 'gentle' to us.
"So many years have passed, and it seems that Jimmy and I haven't changed at all," Chung quipped in the post. She added, "Only the little koala, who was just a tiny koala back then, has grown into a big girl in the blink of an eye. Time has been especially 'gentle' to us."
You look even younger than you did 16 years ago.
Netizens overwhelmingly agreed with Chung's observation, with many commenting on how the stars seem to have "aged backwards" and calling Lin "immortal." Beyond their looks, Chung also noted the deep and lasting bond she shares with Lin.

Jimmy and you have aged backwards! Impressive!
