Seo Jae-hee's comedic prowess is truly shining in the JTBC original series 'The Good Bad Woman'.

As Lee Mi-sun, the director of Sunyeong Kindergarten, Seo Jae-hee was the first to discern the true identity of Kim Young-ran (played by Jeon Yeo-been), who had gone undercover. She skillfully shifted her attitude, adding significant entertainment to the early stages of the plot.

In the recent episodes, Lee Mi-sun's concern and longing for the absence of Kim Young-ran and Baek Hye-ji (played by Joo Hyun-young) brought warmth to the story. She also showed loyalty by reacting sharply when the new kindergarten teacher Kim Se-rang (played by Kim Ah-young) spoke ill of Kim Young-ran.

Furthermore, tension escalated when Ga Seon-young (played by Jang Yoon-ju) exposed Lee Mi-sun's weakness regarding her unfulfilled dream of attending Sun University, using it to threaten Lee Don (played by Seo Hyun-woo). Attention is now focused on how Lee Mi-sun, armed with her affection for Kim Young-ran and Baek Hye-ji and her sense of responsibility towards the kindergarten, will support Kim Young-ran until the end and whether she can ultimately save the kindergarten.

In this role, Seo Jae-hee captivated viewers with a comedic tone entirely different from her previous works. Her nuanced portrayal, evident in every gaze, expression, tone, and gesture, elevated the character's charm. Her experienced, delicate, and bold performance has been hailed as a moment where her comedic potential truly burst forth.

Seo Jae-hee's witty delivery and facial expressions, which have uniquely built the character, injected vitality into each scene. Her ability to seamlessly transition between comedy and seriousness, supported by a steady and profound weight, has been praised for solidly anchoring the drama.

Through 'The Good Bad Woman,' Seo Jae-hee has left a strong impression on viewers, showcasing the pinnacle of comedic acting. Her versatile acting skills and diverse expressiveness have once again proven her status as a 'master actress,' and anticipation is high for the varied roles she will undertake in the future.

'The Good Bad Woman' airs every Monday and Tuesday at 10 PM KST on ENA, with exclusive free VOD releases on Genie TV immediately after broadcast and availability on TVING.

Netizens are praising Seo Jae-hee's performance, commenting, 'Actress Seo Jae-hee's acting range is truly wide,' 'She perfectly embodies the character of Lee Mi-sun,' and 'I laughed, cried, and was moved by her acting.'
