Actress Lee Young Ae excitedly updated her fans with a new look as she prepared for her highly anticipated comeback to the stage. She shared photos on her social media account on May 6, captioned "Hedda Gabler D-1. Finally meeting you all on stage tomorrow! Thank you to Ji Hyun Joon’s fans for the team hoodie!"
In the pictures, she can be seen posing in front of a Hedda Gabler poster in a playful manner, dressed in casual black attire and a baseball cap. Displaying a cheerful and youthful side rather than her usual calm and elegant persona, fans were pleasantly surprised by this unexpected change, describing it as a breath of fresh air with "MZ-generation vibes."
Lee Young Ae is set to grace the stage in Hedda Gabler from May 7 to June 7 at the LG Arts Center Seoul in the LG SIGNATURE Hall. This performance will mark her return to the theater after 32 years since her last appearance in the 1993 play Jjajangmyeon. Originally penned by Henrik Ibsen, Hedda Gabler delves into the inner world of a woman desiring freedom amidst societal boundaries and oppression.
