- Retro styling + Kim Wan-sun hairstyle hot topic in the 1990s
- Tears mentioning 'Bangpan Sisters' Kim So-yeon, Kim Sung-ryeong, and Kim Sun-young

"There was always 'Cutie', but after 'Quiet Sales', there were 'Cutie Sexy' comments, so I wonder if I'm more mature now (laughs). I'm glad that the area I can express will be a little wider. I started late, but at my own pace, I'll go silently. I'm as confident as that."Actor Lee Se-hee, who successfully completed the drama '∀}
Silent Sales', expressed her joy that the area of expression as an actor has expanded, and expressed her desire to show a variety of appearances in various works in the future.

Lee Se-hee met YTN on the 18th at a cafe in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, to commemorate the end of JTBC's Saturday-Sunday drama "Quiet Sales." The drama "Quiet Sales," in which he played the lead role, hit 8.6% of the nation's viewership the day before the interview, ending with its own highest ratings.

Lee Se-hee played Lee Joo-ri, the youngest member of "Bangpan Sisters," in "Quiet Sales," showing a bouncy performance. Lee Ju-ri, who raises her son Dong-woo alone and runs a beauty salon, impressed viewers with her bright and positive appearance even in her difficult life.

He first said, "I watched the final episode with my close friends at my house. I remembered the shooting, so I watched it crying and laughing. In the 11th episode, all the members of the "Quiet Sales" team, who had time, gathered together, and I was more moved because I remembered the shooting, and I watched it while sharing my memories, and I am grateful that the result ended well."

Lee Se-hee is said to have succeeded in transforming her acting by showing a new appearance through "Quiet Sales." "Quiet Sales" is a period drama set in the 1990s, and there were many things to pay attention to from styling to detailed emotional lines of characters by drawing images of "BPS Sisters" selling adult products, which drew favorable reviews.

First of all, I gave credit to the costume team for styling. Lee Se-hee said, "Lee Joo-ri likes singer Kim Wan-sun, so I put her on the playlist and kept listening and looking for a lot of stages. The hair was imitated by Kim Wan-sun's hair. The costume team and the makeup team did so well, and we thought about what style would suit them well," he said.

Lee Se-hee drew laughter with her unconventional and slick performances, such as wearing slip herself and reciting adult products in lines for a scene in which Lee Ju-ri wears slip herself in door-to-door sales and holds a small fashion show to catch customers' attention. Was there any pressure to digest these scenes?

He said, "Experiencing things I hadn't experienced, I had a lot of fun coming from it. I was looking forward to it because it was something I had never done before, such as clothes and hairstyles. I exercise all the time, but I wanted my collarbone line to come out feminine and pretty in the scene where I wear a slip this time, so I only worked out my lower body and did as little as possible for my upper body," he explained.

"Quiet Sales," which started with a 3.9% viewer rating in the first episode, drew a steady rise through word of mouth, and recorded 8.6% in the final episode. The response was also hot online, and interest in the actors remained high. When asked for a memorable comment response, Lee Se-hee hesitated for a long time and shyly answered, "Cutie sexy," causing laughter from the reporters.

Lee Se-hee said, "In fact, there was always 'Cutie', but now I remember that I have grown-up beauty (mature beauty). I have to act according to my age, but when I heard that I had a mature feeling after only looking cute, I thought that the area I could express would be a little wider, so I remember that comment a lot," he said.

But I don't want to define 'cutie-sexy' as 'pursuit beauty'. He said, "I always want to try various things. There will be no actor who wants to do just one thing, he said. "I want to try villains and historical dramas. I enjoyed watching "Damo" and "Hwangjin," and I want to work hard because it's hard then, but it's the most memorable one."

In this work, there were many reviews that the chemistry between the two was particularly good. When this was mentioned, Lee Se-hee wiped away tears by telling stories about actors Kim Sung-ryeong, Lee So-yeon, and Kim Sun-young, who were together as if they were waiting. Especially about Soyeon Kim, he said, "I've never met such a person in my life. "I don't think I'll be able to meet him in the future," he said with tears in his eyes.

Lee Se-hee said, "Looking at So-yeon, she has a lot of things to do, so I thought about how to count all the staff and care about her every moment. Because he has such a good understanding of people, I thought he was a person who could act widely. Every moment I was grateful, great, phenomenal. I learned a lot," he said, wiping away tears.

When asked about his target point as an actor in the future, he said, "It's good that there's still too long to go. I started late, but I think I have my own pace. I'm still lacking, so I'm going to go silently at my own pace. I'm a little confident about that. I am confident that it will last long," he said, strengthening his will to continue his activities.

Meanwhile, Lee Se-hee raised her public profile by playing the role of Park Dan-dan in the KBS weekend drama "The Gentleman and the Lady" in 2021. For "The Gentleman and the Lady," she won the KBS Acting Awards for Best New Female and Best Couple Award, and for "True Match," she won the KBS Acting Awards for Best Female Popularity and Best Couple Award in 2022.
