Lee Se-hee shared her street casting story.
On the 24th, a video titled 'Actor Lee Se-hee' was posted on the YouTube channel 'Life 84'.
That day, Kian84 said, "It's a shame. I think people would really like you if you appeared more on variety shows." Lee Se-hee responded, "No," and asked, "How can you do variety shows for so long?"
Kian84, who has been a regular on Home Alone for 9 years, revealed, "I was a cartoonist for about 10 years, and since I was always drawing alone, I feel so excited to meet people when I go to broadcast." In response, Lee Se-hee said, "You must be receiving a lot of energy. That's a blessing."
Then Kian84 asked, "How is it? Is socializing with people enjoyable?" and Lee Se-hee replied, "Not really. I am a person for whom alone time is very important."
Meanwhile, Lee Se-hee caught attention by revealing that after graduating in dental hygiene, she was cast on the street while in a café at the age of 25. Upon hearing this, Kian84 asked, "Why didn't you become a dental hygienist?"
Lee Se-hee began, "One day, after finishing my practicum, I was coming back and looking at the darkened ceiling, thinking, 'Why can't I be someone who looks forward to Monday? Why am I always looking forward to the weekend?' So I thought I want to be someone who looks forward to Monday."
It turned out I had a dream of being an actor nestled in my heart. Lee Se-hee said, "It had always been in my heart. I always wanted to be an actor," adding, "I came to Seoul without any plans and about a month or two later, I got cast on the street. I was very lucky. It was a stroke of luck in my life."
Meanwhile, Lee Se-hee also revealed the casting story for the weekend drama 'Gentleman and Young Lady,' which recorded a viewership rating of 38%. She recalled, "Initially, I went to audition for the role of the main character's younger sibling. They then told me to come back for another audition. I was there for about 5 hours for the main role. I received the script of twenty-five pages again and was asked to act it all out."
She continued, "The main character had many similarities to me. I worked many part-time jobs," adding, "The character fit me. I think I understood it unconsciously. While acting, I was so grateful that the writer cried while watching my performance."
She then said, "But they say she usually cries easily. She's emotional and very feminine. Later, I received a call saying, 'You got it! You're the main character!' Was that maybe after 15 years? 20 years? They said it was the first time they had ever cast a completely rookie actress in a weekend drama."
