Lee Yeon (born 27 February 1995)[1] is a South Korean actress. She is best known for her portrayal of male character Baek Seong-woo in 2022 Netflix-produced South Korean drama Juvenile Justice.[2]

Career

[edit]

Lee Yeon first made her debut as an actress in 2018 with South Korean film Anonymous. She has appeared in several films and television series, including a cameo as the younger sister of male lead Jung Hae-in's character in South Korean Netflix drama D.P. (2021), which also starred Koo Kyo-hwan as the second male lead.[3][4]

Lee's breakout role comes from 2022 Netflix drama Juvenile Justice, in which Lee's character is a 13-year-old male teenager Baek Seong-woo, who was charged with murdering a young schoolboy in the drama's first two episodes. Despite being a female and her Korean age of 28 at the time she portrayed Seong-woo, Lee's acting and transformation as a cold-blooded murderer was positively reviewed and applauded by audiences and critics.[5][6][7] Lee's performance in Juvenile Justice allowed her to gain a "Best New Actress" award nomination by the 58th Baeksang Arts Awards, but the award was eventually given to Kim Hye-jun.[8][9]
