Actress Lee Hye-ri has captivated viewers with her enchanting charm.
Lee Hye-ri is forming a delicate chemistry that oscillates between friendship and obsession with Jung Soo-bin (played by Woo Seul-ki) in the STUDIO X+U drama "Competitive Goodness" (written by Kim Tae-hee and Min Ye-ji, directed by Kim Tae-hee), delivering a performance that is perfectly aligned with "Yu Jae-i" through a variety of acting that switches between spiciness and sweetness. As a result, viewers are expressing their affection for "Yu Jae-i" by giving several nicknames to the character, catching attention.
The first nickname is "Guilty Human." Guilty Human is a combination of the words guilty and Yu Jae-i (Lee Hye-ri). In the drama, Jae-i expressed unwavering affection when Woo Seul-ki (Jung Soo-bin) got injured, running over with a boot, hugging him from behind out of concern, and almost saving Seul-ki, who was about to fall into a trap, by stroking his face. Above all, Jae-i's sweet gaze at Seul-ki throughout is making viewers flutter.
The second nickname, "Jai-kopass," originated from Jae-i's sharp demeanor when trying to dominate characters other than Seul-ki. In particular, Jae-i nonchalantly mentioned bad rumors about Seul-ki's deceased father, saying, "Isn't it a relief? It's much less unfair than if your dad was an incredibly good person." This scene reveals Jae-i's deficiencies and psychopathic traits developed under the oppression of his father since childhood, evoking sympathy.
The last nickname is "Benz Woman." When Seul-ki, cornered, points to her as a drug dealer, Yu Jae-i smiled and said, "Good job, well done." Additionally, while Jae-i has displayed submissive and fearful behavior towards his father, his attitude quickly changed to defiance when his father attempted to put Seul-ki in danger. In this way, Jae-i's unconditional acceptance and unconditional love for Seul-ki further intensify their relationship.
Meanwhile, "Competitive Goodness" has not only ranked high on domestic popularity charts but has also topped OTT charts in Japan and Taiwan, captivating a global audience. As a result, Lee Hye-ri's social media followers and YouTube subscribers have surged, gaining heated popularity even overseas.
The drama "Competitive Goodness" featuring Lee Hye-ri is released every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 12 a.m.
