Seo Ji Hye Plays So Ji Sub's Wife in K-Drama

Actress Seo Ji-hye made a special appearance in the SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'The Manager' and left a deep impression and lingering resonance. 'The Manager' is a revenge action drama about an ordinary father who jumps into a dangerous fight to get his daughter back.

Seo Ji-hye played the role of Lim Yu-jin, the wife of the protagonist, Manager Kim (played by So Ji-sub). Yu-jin, who appeared in Manager Kim's flashbacks, was wearing a golden-silver flower, which has the flower language of 'love and devotion'. Later, while Manager Kim was absent during a mission, Yu-jin tragically died alone while giving birth.

Just before her death, Lim Yu-jin left a heartbreaking last will for her daughter Min-ji: "Now, forget everything, forget the past, and live as Min-ji's father." This last will gave viewers a poignant lingering feeling.

Despite her brief appearance, Seo Ji-hye refreshed the mood of the drama with her excellent emotional acting. Having been praised for her unconventional acting transformation in her previous work 'Scarecrow', she proved another charm in this work by showcasing a warm yet poignant atmosphere.

Immediately after the broadcast, viewers showed positive reactions to Seo Ji-hye's acting, such as "Her presence was strong even though she appeared briefly," "I was immersed just by her eye acting," and "It was a shame her screen time was so short."
