The drama queen captivates with her mere appearance. Lee Yoo-young causes a stir in the drama with a special appearance in "Seocho-dong."

On the 14th, Lee Yoo-young made a special appearance as Park Soo-jung, the ex-girlfriend of lawyer Ahn Joo-hyung (played by Lee Jong-suk), in the tvN weekend drama "Seocho-dong," creating a significant impact within the plot. Park Soo-jung, who hurt Joo-hyung greatly and broke up with him, was a character that couldn't even be directly mentioned in front of him, known informally as "Crystal Park" among the five friends. Yet, she faced Joo-hyung as the defendant in a divorce lawsuit. Ahn Joo-hyung is the plaintiff's lawyer.

Park Soo-jung (played by Lee Yoo-young) confronted Joo-hyung in court with sorrowful tears. The misery of her unhappy marriage laid bare before Joo-hyung vividly conveyed Soo-jung's emotions, shaking Joo-hyung's gaze as well. She presented allegations of her husband's violence and abusive language, but her inability to present direct evidence in front of Joo-hyung evoked a sense of pity.

In particular, the sight of Soo-jung shedding tears endlessly without even greeting Joo-hyung felt even more fragile and hinted at her psychological pain and wounds. During the mediation process following two trials, when she encountered Joo-hyung again, Soo-jung expressed her resentment. It was a moment that conveyed the pain of Soo-jung, who revealed a painful family history she did not wish to expose. Soo-jung's appearance caused a significant stir in both the plot and in Joo-hyung's heart. The unwavering Joo-hyung found himself in a moment of rage, and Hee-ji (played by Moon Ga-young) also began to take notice of Soo-jung, leading to an emotional rift.

Lee Yoo-young delivered a powerful portrayal of the ex-lover's appearance that shook the drama. From the happy past with Joo-hyung to her pitiful reality, she conveyed emotions even with just her eyes, impacting the hearts of others. Lee Yoo-young's detailed performance, illustrating delicate and vulnerable feelings, enhanced the drama's immersion and added meaning to her special appearance. The chemistry with Lee Jong-suk also shone. The image of the two maintaining a beautiful love during their relationship resonated with viewers, making the current situation of the two standing face to face even more heartbreaking. The chemistry between the two actors intensified emotional engagement, sparking curiosity about their story.

'Seocho-dong' airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:20 p.m. on tvN. Meanwhile, Lee Yoo-young is currently in the midst of filming the drama "Pro Bono." Her new acting transformation in the stories of other lawyers is generating anticipation.
