Actress Shin Ye-eun is currently mesmerizing viewers with her exceptional ability to embody characters in the JTBC weekend drama 'Hundred Year Memory'.

In the series, Shin Ye-eun plays Seo Jong-hee, a lively and straightforward bus conductor, adding significant vitality to the drama. From the early episodes, she has portrayed Seo Jong-hee three-dimensionally with her solid acting skills, enhancing the drama's immersion by showcasing unique chemistry with Kim Da-mi (as Go Young-rae) and Heo Nam-joon (as Han Jae-pil).

She demonstrated her loyalty by readily lending money to Young-rae's mother after an accident and even taking over the bus conductor duties to help her friend. Scenes where she tenderly cares for her younger siblings further highlighted Seo Jong-hee's rough yet warm personality.

Furthermore, Shin Ye-eun has convincingly expressed Jong-hee's complex emotions as she initially pushes away Jae-pil, who shows interest, but gradually opens her heart. Her flustered expression when encountering Jae-pil in her conductor uniform at the end of episode 4, followed by determined lines in the preview, significantly heightened viewer anticipation.

With Seo Jong-hee's yet-to-be-revealed past adding another layer, Shin Ye-eun is meticulously portraying a wide range of emotions each episode. Attention is now focused on how Shin Ye-eun's unique interpretation of Seo Jong-hee will unfold.

Shin Ye-eun debuted in 2018 with the web drama 'A-TEEN'. She has showcased a broad acting spectrum through various works including 'He is Psychometric', 'Angel's Last Mission: Love', 'When the Weather is Fine', 'Yumi's Cells', 'Moonshine', and 'The Glory'. Notably, her portrayal of the younger Park Yeon-jin in the 2022 Netflix series 'The Glory' left a strong impression.
