"The Remarried Empress" is a romantic fantasy epic drama about the perfect empress of the Dongdae Empire, "Nabie" (played by Shin Min-a), who receives a divorce notice from Emperor "Sobieush" (played by Joo Ji-hoon) after he falls for the runaway slave "Rasta" (played by Lee Se-young). In accepting the divorce, she demands approval for her remarriage to Prince "Heinrey" of the Seowang Kingdom.

The released stills capture the transformation of "Rasta" as she enters the imperial household, from a pure and clear charm to a gradually growing desire.

"Rasta," who had lived a humble life unable to possess anything, is seen beaming with a bright smile, unable to hide her excitement about a new world, as she faces the luxurious dresses and bedroom that have suddenly become hers.

From her posture to her gait, she quickly masters the new life given to her by learning the imperial protocols and etiquette one by one. In particular, her innocent expression as she gazes at Emperor "Sobieush" allows viewers to imagine why he became helplessly captivated by "Rasta." However, as she begins to desire more and more, even her once purely innocent expression starts to change. Everything in the imperial household that "Rasta" holds in her hands has already become something she cannot give up. Curiosity is piqued as to how Lee Se-young will portray the complex inner world of "Rasta," where neither purity nor desire is false.

Director Jo Su-won commented on Lee Se-young's acting, stating, "She filled 'Rasta,' a character with narrative twists and turns, with a definitive presence." He added, "It was moving how she well expressed the fleeting expressions that allow one to guess the narrative of 'Rasta.'"

Attention is focused on how Lee Se-young will express the unique charm of "Rasta," where endearment and desire coexist.

Meanwhile, "The Remarried Empress" will be released on Disney+ on November 4.
