Actress Lee Re has solidified her position as a 'trustworthy actress' through her consistent acting career.

Since her debut in 2012, Lee Re has built a solid acting foundation through numerous works such as 'Six Flying Dragons,' 'Hellbound,' and 'Soundtrack #1.' Recently, she received significant acclaim for her role as delivery person Lee Si-on in the tvN Monday-Tuesday drama 'Project Sazang Shin.'

To portray the resilient Si-on, Lee Re went the extra mile by obtaining an actual motorcycle license and experiencing the delivery process firsthand. She stated, 'I didn't want to portray her as simply strong, but rather show the face of someone who has endured their scars.'
