In Family Matters, I thought it was a he playing a girl role. My bad. Cos her face reminds me of actor Sung Hyuk's Summer Fairy character in The Korean Odyssey (Hwayugi).
I think it's too soon for Lee Se Young to don another character of olden times, at the heels of The Red Sleeve. But this genre is fantasy romantic-comedy so I will watch this. I always enjoy LSY's acting. She was great in The Law Cafe.
It all depends on the way they execute it. The actors and writers give fuel to this trope, and it just comes down…
it's a fantasy romantic-comedy, not a historical drama. Just hat Lee Se Young's character came from the past. How many fresh stories without tropes can the industry create when it churns out 800+ movies, TV series etc every year? There are a few. Anyways, the actors will give fresh take on their characters in those tropes, and that's when you know they are good. So give it a chance.
I’m so happy and proud of her! The Red Sleeve was a huge success and ended with 17.4% ratings! I’ve watched…
sadly, she was ignored by the award giving bodies. TRS got best actor, best director, production, etc... but none for her. TRS would not be what is is without her!
