Lee Se-young Hints at Villainous Transformation in 'The Remarried Empress,' Igniting Fan Excitement

Actress Lee Se-young is heightening anticipation for her upcoming project with a glimpse into her new character, showcasing a bold transformation.

On the 14th, Lee Se-young shared several photos on her social media account, accompanied by the captions '#disenypuls #RogerViver.' In the released images, Lee Se-young sported long, soft chestnut-brown hair and a black suit, exuding a cynical aura distinct from her usual elegant image.

Having garnered immense love for her calm and graceful portrayals in historical dramas like tvN's 'The Crowned Clown' and MBC's 'The Red Sleeve,' where she even earned the title 'Celebrity Who Pulls Off Top Knots Best,' her current transformation is drawing significant attention.

Her new drama, 'The Remarried Empress,' is an adaptation of a popular web novel and webtoon. Lee Se-young is set to play a beautifully escaped slave rescued from the Emperor's hunting grounds, a character notorious for breaking up the protagonist couple. This role is known for its deceptively innocent facade that ultimately provokes the protagonists and readers, making fans eager to see how Lee Se-young will embody this complex character.
