Actress UEE is returning with a new weekend drama on KBS called “Live Your Own Life”
UEE made her debut in the entertainment industry in 2009 as a member of the girl group After School. In the same year, she appeared on MBC’s popular drama “Queen Seondeok” as younger Mishil.
The actress who played the adult version of Mishil was Go Hyun Jung. That’s why UEE was nicknamed “Little Go Hyun Jung” due to the resemblance in their visuals.
UEE also revealed that she decided to participate in the casting for “Queen Seondeok” because of their similar appearances.

As a result, she proved her passionate acting and perfectly portrayed an emotional crying scene without saying a single line. It was a short scene but UEE successfully left a strong impression on viewers with her acting debut.

Emerging as “Weekend Drama Queen” in name and in reality, UEE is raising high expectations for her comeback with KBS’s new weekend series “Live Your Own Life”, which will premiere on September 16th.
