Child actor Lee Se-young is making an unconventional transformation.

MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Mortel California (scripted by Lee Seo-yoon and director Kim Hyung-min), which will premiere in January next year, is a remodeling romance of the first love that the female protagonist, who was born in a motel in the countryside and raised in a motel, experiences when she reunites with her first love in her hometown, where she fled 12 years ago.

Based on the popular novel 'Home, Bitter Home' by Shim Yoon-seo in 2019, Lee Se-young (played by Ji Kang-hee), who is standing tall as a 'trustworthy romance master' and 'Marry My Husband', is expected to meet with a new meeting of Nine-woo (played by Chun Yeon-soo), who captured the hearts of women through his popular novel 'Home, Red End of Clothes' and 'Yeolnyeo Park's Contract Marriage'.




Among them, 'Motel California' will draw attention by releasing a still from Lee Se-young's play for the first time. Ji Kang-hee, played by Lee Se-young, is an interior designer who has lived a difficult life due to her unusual background and mixed-race birth of a rural motel, but she ran away from home on New Year's Day when she was 20 and endured 12 years of living in Seoul.

Even without academic background and background, Kang-hee, who knows his main job well, has a tender youth with thorns from her inner wounds, while also has a refreshing charm that controls the deep and intelligent love of the nine-woo.

In the still released, Lee Se-young makes it impossible to take her eyes off with her exotic visuals. In particular, transparent dark brown eyes and light brown hair are different in color under moonlight at night and under sunlight during the day, so their mysterious charms soar. In addition, in casual styling as if watching a bohemian girl, the free charm of the character Ji Kang-hee, played by Lee Se-young in the play, exudes.




On the other hand, it is impressive to see the chicness and sharp charm that are hidden behind the lovely visuals. Lee Se-young, who has shown off her elegant and innocent charm to the extent that she has earned the nickname "human ink-and-wash painting" so far, can feel her acting transformation. As a result, expectations are high for her unique face as she meets a fresh character.

In response, the production team of `Motel California" said, `MBC's box office hit Lee Se-young returned with her first love romance this time. Lee Se-young fully utilizes the detailed emotional line and sweet and bitter charm of the character 'Ji Kang-hee' based on her bold visual transformation as well as solid acting skills. Please look forward to and pay a lot of attention to the first romance drama of the new year in 2025 that Lee Se-young, a trusted romance master, will present.

MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Motel California' is scheduled to air in January 2025.
