Actor Lee Seo-an, a former singer who was active in the groups SeeYa, COED SCHOOL, and F-VE DOLLS, recently shared behind-the-scenes stories from her appearance in the drama "Reborn Rookie".
On the July 21 broadcast of SBS Power FM's "WENDY's Young Street", Lee Seo-an, who played Na Eun-se in the hit JTBC drama "Reborn Rookie" that recently concluded successfully with a peak viewership rating of 13.6 percent, appeared as a guest to share behind-the-scenes stories and her thoughts on her past career as a singer.
When asked about the reactions around her that day, Lee Seo-an shared, "Even my SeeYa members texted me saying, 'You came out as such a bad person.' People recognize me and ask, 'Aren't you the wicked daughter from Taeha Group?', so I can really feel my heightened popularity."
Behind-the-scenes stories from her audition were also revealed. Lee Seo-an stated that she went into the audition already fully immersed in her character, styling her own outfit and maintaining the cold and haughty attitude of Na Eun-se even when answering questions from the director. In particular, she drew attention by revealing that she referenced Park Yeon-jin (played by Lim Ji-yeon) from "The Glory" and Cheon Seo-jin (played by Kim So-yeon) from "The Penthouse: War in life" to immerse herself in her villainous role.
On this day, Lee Seo-an overwhelmed the studio by instantly reenacting the line "Not Madam, but Executive Director," which drew a lot of attention in the series. Host WENDY, who watched her acting from across the room, praised her by saying, "I found myself instinctively looking away."
Lee Seo-an, who previously promoted as a member of the groups SeeYa and F-VE DOLLS, showed that her vocal skills are still intact by singing a short snippet, drawing cheers from listeners. When asked if she has any thoughts on standing on stage as a singer again, she raised expectations by replying, "SeeYa has a concert coming up soon, and if there is a request to do it together, I am always willing to do it."
Meanwhile, SBS Power FM's "WENDY's Young Street" airs every day from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m., and can also be viewed as a visible radio broadcast through the YouTube channel "Gorealra".
