Early life
Seo was born in Ulsan, South Korea. She danced as a child and even briefly underwent K-pop idol training.[4]
Seo studied at Pyeongtaek University under the Department of Theater and Film, focusing on practical skills and artistic sensibility by actively participating in various performances, video productions, and field-oriented projects during her studies.[5]
Career
Prior to The World of Love, Seo never acted. A fan of director Yoon Ga-eun, she was cast "after three meetings and an acting workshop", much of which felt like a "blind date". Yoon was charmed by her eyes, her honesty in-person, and her immediate synergy with other actors, on top of her taekwondo experience, which was crucial to Yoon's script.[6]
On the festival circuit, Seo drew acclaim from Korean and international critics alike for her performance. At the Red Sea International Film Festival, she won the Best Actress Award by a unanimous decision from the jury.[2]
