Have you ever seen an actress so relatable that you couldn't help but wonder if it's all just a performance? Actress Lee Se Hee recently appeared on MBC’s The Manager, showcasing her down-to-earth charm, but what unfolded has stirred up quite the storm of controversy!

In a post that quickly gained traction online titled, “Lee Se Hee’s unbelievable persona? Why the production team is being criticized,” viewers were taken aback by this unexpected side of the star. From her manager's words characterizing Se Hee’s personality as “unusual,” it seems the actress is more than just a pretty face.

Lee Se Hee first graced the screen on The Manager in July, where her episode soared to the top of the ratings with a 3.2% viewership. But when she returned for a second appearance in August, she exhibited an array of quirky and unfiltered moments that left many questioning the authenticity of the broadcast.

On the show, her antics included letting water overflow while filling an ice tray, flipping through a book that was hilariously upside down, and casually strolling with her dog Kangi. The absurdity peaked when she nonchalantly picked up a broken umbrella and splashed cold water on herself while donning a knit sweater. And, for a truly jaw-dropping moment, she pulled out a pile of blankets from a double-panelled window frame—something typically reserved for insulation, not storage!

But that’s not all; can you believe she even stepped out in clothes straight from the washing machine, completely ignoring the fact that they were still wet? This laid-back attitude triggered a wave of mixed reactions from viewers. While some found her relatable, others were quick to criticize, saying things like, “This is so staged,” and “Not even normal people do that!” They even questioned her choice of attire—“A top actress walking around with a broken umbrella?”

As the debate rages on, Lee Se Hee’s agency has stayed silent regarding the backlash. It seems the line between reality and performance has never been blurrier, leaving fans and critics alike to wonder: is Lee Se Hee genuinely a free spirit or just giving us a glimpse of a carefully crafted persona?
