Actor Lee Se-young is making headlines for finding a new home after 11 years.
Fantagio on the 12th said, "We have signed an exclusive contract with actor Lee Se-young." It added, "We are pleased to be working with Lee Se-young, who has built a solid filmography through a variety of works. As an actor with a broad acting spectrum, we will spare no support so she can showcase her abilities in various genres going forward."
Lee Se-young had been with Prain TPC for a full 11 years. Announcing a fresh start with Fantagio just four months after renewing her contract surprised fans and industry insiders even more. Prain TPC had announced the news of Lee Se-young's contract renewal in April.
Lee Se-young, who debuted as a child actor in the 1997 drama "The Brothers' River," captured many viewers' hearts with her solid acting even as a child when she played the young Choi Geum-young in the 2003 MBC hit Dae Jang Geum. Growing into a leading actress without a hiatus, Lee Se-young has appeared in numerous works including the dramas "The Gentlemen of Wolgyesu Tailor Shop," "A Korean Odyssey," "The Crowned Clown," "Dr. John," "The Memory," "Kairos," and the films "Hot Blooded Youth," "Suseong Lake," and "Hotel Lake," cementing her status as a symbol of dramatic turnaround and a trusted actor.
In particular, through the dramas "The Red Sleeve" and "A Tale of Marriage Contract," Lee Se-young earned nicknames such as "goddess of historical drama" and "undefeated in historical drama," receiving great love, and last year she gave delicate emotional performances in the Coupang Play series "Things That Come After Love" and MBC's Friday-Saturday drama "Motel California." Recently, news of her appearing in Disney+ "The Remarried Empress" has raised expectations.
Fantagio Co., Ltd., which signed an exclusive contract with Lee Se-young, is a management company that represents Baek Yoon-sik, Kim Seon-ho, Lee Sung-kyung, Ong Seong-wu, ASTRO, Lee Chang-seop, and others, and is active in film and drama production, overseas performances and various other areas.
