Actress Lee Sang-hee portrayed the shaman Up-soon in the Netflix series 'Gigilo', expressing profound maternal love.

Released on the 24th, the Netflix series 'Gigilo' tells the story of high school students who are warned of sudden death due to the curse of an application called 'Gigilo' that grants wishes, and who struggle to escape the curse. Lee Sang-hee plays the role of Up-soon, a shaman and the mother of Kwon Si-won (played by Choi Ju-eun).

Up-soon, with her thick dialect and white hair hairstyle, immediately captured attention from her first appearance, exuding a chilling atmosphere. She instantly healed the bloodshot eyes of Do Hye-ryeong (played by Kim Si-a), who came to meet Si-won, generating an extraordinary aura. Later, after noticing Hye-ryeong's supernatural ability while exploring the attic shrine, she said, "Do you want to be my daughter? A spiritual daughter," injecting a strange tension.

Moreover, Up-soon's profound maternal love drew attention. Sensing a sinister aura in the shrine, she searched for Si-won's hair and school uniform and offered a ritual prayer. Even as her nosebleed continued, she rubbed her hands together, saying she would take the punishment in her daughter's place, fully conveying Up-soon's desperation.

Lee Sang-hee meticulously portrayed the emotional arc of a mother who appears cold on the outside but collapses helplessly the moment she senses her daughter's crisis. Despite her sobbing breaths and trembling hands, her efforts to protect her daughter by using every possible method left viewers with a poignant impact.

Meanwhile, 'Gigilo', starring Lee Sang-hee, is currently streaming exclusively on Netflix.
