Actress Lee Seo-i has passed away. The news of her death, revealed about 10 days later, has left many in deep sorrow. It is particularly heartbreaking that the flower shop she operated was about to transfer, and a post from a fan she was close to has surfaced, adding to the melancholy.
On the 1st, Lee Seo-i's manager posted on the deceased's social media account, "A radiant, beautiful, pretty, and kind sister has become a star in heaven on June 20, 2025. Everyone must be shocked and heartbroken by the obituary, but please pray for her to go to a good and beautiful place."
Following the news of Lee Seo-i's passing, Choi Deok-mun, who worked with her on "Killing Romance," commented, "Huh? What? What did you say? Why? How come?" expressing disbelief. Other actors, including Park Ho-san, also conveyed their condolences.
Lee Seo-i, who worked as an actress, also operated a flower shop. Since 2022, she had been making custom bouquets and event flower arrangements and opened a store in Bongcheon-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul. While receiving good reviews, she was continuing her business when she announced a temporary closure starting in April, planning to transfer to Seonghyeon-dong, Gwanak-gu, and reopen in September.
However, prior to the reopening in September, the news of Lee Seo-i's passing has evoked sorrow. In particular, a fan commented, "I can't erase the calendar where I had an appointment with my sister on May 24. I was about to have surgery, and she said she caught a cold after coming back from her job. We planned to meet after both of us recovered from surgery. I'm regretting not meeting that day, it has been nothing but regretful days. I had so much to talk about and we promised to meet, and we had talked about a housewarming party... She gifted me a bouquet while smiling, saying the flowers were pretty. I'm sorry... I'm sorry for everything... And I'm so thankful. As an only child with many commonalities with her, I wished to be with her longer, but I'm disappointed and sad that I couldn't."
Meanwhile, Lee Seo-i made her debut in 2014 through the SBS drama "Cheongdam-dong Scandal" and appeared in films such as "Madame Ppangdeok," "The Officer," "The King," and "Are You Still in Love?" She played the role of the older sister of Beom-woo (played by Gong Myoung) in "Killing Romance." Lee Seo-i, who also starred in plays like "The Good Doctor" and "Strange People," is reported to have appeared in the tvN drama "The Divorce Insurance," which ended in May.
