Netflix's "Mask Girl" introduces a new actress, Lee Han-seong! Her interview content goes viral online: "She's so intelligent!"
On the 16th, Netflix's new work "Mask Girl", which was highly anticipated for its new attempt at "3 people in 1 role", held its production press conference. Especially, newcomer actress Lee Han-seong, who played Kim Mo Mi along with actors Ko Hyun Jung and Nana, made her first appearance at an official event, attracting the attention of the whole crowd for a while. "Mask Girl," tells the story of an ordinary office worker, Kim Mo Mi, who has low self-esteem about her appearance. She uses a mask to hide her face and conducts BJ activities on the internet every night. In this process, Kim Mo Mi becomes involved in an unexpected incident. "Mask Girl" is adapted from a webcomic of the same name created by Korean cartoonists Memi and HeeSe, and is scripted and directed by Kim Yong-hoon director. The character Kim Mo Mi is played by Ko Hyun Jung, Nana, and Lee Han-Seung. The three actors portray the character at different times. Lee Han-Seung plays Kim Mo Mi, a company worker who, due to her lack of self-esteem, covers her face with a mask every night for the Internet broadcast. Kim Mo Mi, who becomes unrecognizable after getting involved in an unexpected event, is played by NaNa. Kim Mo Mi, who is later imprisoned in a reformatory due to being a criminal involved in a world-disturbing event, is played by Ko Hyeon-Jeong. On the day, Director Kim Jong-hoon expressed his attempt at the 'Triple Roles' as follows: "It's an extremely difficult decision. For the majority of the people involved in the project, this is the thing they worry about the most. Under this style, people usually dress up differently. But this kind of interpretation could be more inconvenient and repugnant. When actors dress up differently, their expressions and performances could be seen as awkward, so we decided to have three actors play the role. Out of the many decisions made during the filming process, I think this was the best decision I've made." At the same time, newcomer actor Lee Han-Seong, who had previously sparked public curiosity due to his obscurity, was also garnering much attention. On that day, Lee Han-Seong expressed his thoughts on being chosen as the main character Kim something-pretty. Lee Han-Seong said, "This is the first time I'm meeting you all," "I was chosen through an audition. Although I felt burdened, I was chosen based on the director's trust, so I prepared with a heart full of gratitude." Lee Han-Seong continued, "I have had similar experiences as this story. During the process of filming this work, these experiences did not become trigger for me to feel pessimistic about my appearance, and starting as an actor with an "ugly" character highlighted in appearance did not put too much pressure on me. Even if I appear in this way, I think if someone needs me, there will also be roles that I can play in other works. When I saw the completed work, I felt that I could also become an actor who could participate in good works, so I was very confident. " Subsequently, the content of Lee Han-Seong's interview started to spread like wildfire on several online discussion platforms in South Korea. Netizens commented, "What a great mindset," and "So smart!" "I feel like she will become a profound actress," "She looks cool during the interview, and also when wearing a mask," "Her character portrayal was great!" and so on, eliciting heated responses. Additionally, "Masked Girl" will be released on Netflix on the 18th.
