Lee Ji Ah's True Personality Revealed

On January 29, Lee Ji Ah made an appearance in Shin Dong Yeop's YouTube show "Salty Brother Shin Dong Yeop" alongside "Queen of Divorce" co-star Kang Ki Young.

The two promoted their forthcoming work, which marks Lee Ji Ah's newest acting gig after the success of her 2023 K-drama "Pandora: Beneath the Paradise."

In the show, Lee Ji Ah transforms into a reputable divorce lawyer who plans to avenge herself after her own husband betrays her, making her lose everything she worked hard for.

When Shin Dong Yeop asked her why "Queen of Divorce" is a unique piece, Lee Ji Ah shared that her newest acting role resonates with her truest self the most.

"If I have to do something, I need to make sure that I do it properly or else, everything goes to waste," the actress shared. "Even in acting, I have the same mindset."

However, Kang Ki Young backed this up, saying that the actress has been very helpful to him in internalizing his new character throughout the filming process, which he appreciates.
