Actor Lee Seo-an will appear in the drama 'New Employee Kang (Chairman)'.
According to her agency Billions on the 23rd, Lee Seo-an has been cast as Naeon-se in JTBC's new Saturday-Sunday drama 'New Employee Kang (Chairman)' (created by Kim Soon-ok, scripted by Hyun Jimin, directed by Ko Hye-jin, produced by SLL and Copper Korea, based on the original work by San-gyeong), which is set to premiere on May 30.
'New Employee Kang (Chairman)' is a drama that tells the story of Choi Seong Geu-rup-ui (Chairman) Kang Yong-ho, a top conglomerate executive known as the 'god of business', who is forced to live an unwanted second life due to an accident.
In 'New Employee Kang (Chairman)', Lee Seo-an takes on the role of Naeon-se, the eldest daughter-in-law of Choi Sung-ga. Naeon-se is a supporter who actively backs Kang Jae-seong, the son of Kang Yong-ho (Chairman), and is a character possessing both cool-headedness and realistic judgment.
Lee Seo-an is expected to heighten the drama's tension with three-dimensional acting based on the solid foundation she has built through numerous works. Expectations are also high for the chemistry she will display with Jin-gu, who plays her husband, Kang Jae-seong.
Lee Seo-an has appeared in various works including the films 'Mul-gwi' and 'Coffee Luwak', and the dramas 'Justice', 'Dodo Sol Sol La La Sol', 'Spy City', 'The Ultimate Solution', 'Royal Loader', and 'Naughty Photo Studio'.
Notably, in the 2024 tvN drama 'Jeong Nyeon', she played the role of the Yang (President) at a cafe where Juran (played by Woo Da-bi) worked, delivering a delicate performance that made her a standout supporting character. Last year, in the TVING original 'Dear X', she portrayed Im Sun-ye, the deceased mother of top domestic star Baek Ah-jin (played by Kim Yoo-jeong), exuding a strong presence.
