About
I am actor Lee Woo, who has steadily built a strong presence in OTT productions such as Netflix’s D.P. Season 2 (2023), Hierarchy (2024), Girigo (2025), and TVING’s Substitute SAT Exam (2026). I have developed a broad range of characters across films and short films, earning recognition for my acting, including the Best Actor Award at the 9th Chungju Short Film Festival for 92-born_No Guarantee Available. With solid training from Chung-Ang University’s Department of Theater and experience on the stage, I consistently deliver nuanced emotional arcs and realistic pacing on set.

I played a drag queen. I remember working hard to practice dancing in heels as an artist who performs an androgynous performance that exaggerates femininity despite being male. I was disappointed that I could not appear in the scene I was originally supposed to be in, but I remember the director being very satisfied on set, so it was a short yet rewarding project.
