It has been revealed that child actress Lee Seojeong was entirely edited out of SBS' Friday-Saturday drama 'My Royal Nemesis.'
On May 31, Lee Seojeong's mother wrote on her official account, "After receiving her very first audition confirmation for the role of young Taehee in 'My Royal Nemesis,' Seojeong prepared and filmed with a fluttering heart. Unfortunately, her scenes were cut from the broadcast because the production exceeded its runtime. Therefore, she won't be seen on the broadcast."
She continued, "Of course we're disappointed, but we also learned another lesson through this experience. Results do not always match the ammount of effort put in, but I'm sure the time Seojeong spent to challenge herself and the experience itself will pile up and remain inside her, right?"
She also shared, "After being cast, she practiced her nine lines of dialogue for a long time. Standing on set, acting in front of the camera, and working alongside wonderful staff members and older casts on the set became precious memories that no one can ever edit out." She added, "One project has passed, but she's already filming another project with her spirits up. Stay strong, Lee Seojeong," offering words of encouragement for her daughter.
Lee Seojeong was cast as the younger version of Mo Taehee, played by actress Chae Seo-an. However, it has been reported that her scenes did not make it to air due to runtime adjustments during the final editing process.
Upon hearing the news, viewers left supportive messages such as, "It's a shame. I was curious about Taehee's childhood story too," "I'm sure she'll appear in an even better project soon," "I hope this still becomes a valuable experience for her," and more.
Meanwhile, 'My Royal Nemesis' is a romance drama that follows Shin Seori (played by Lim Jiyeon), an obscure actress who turns 'wicked' after being possessed by the spirit of a notorious villain from Joseon era, and Cha Segye (played by Heo Namjoon), a ruthless Chaebol who is often described as a monster of capitalism. The drama airs every Friday and Saturday at 9.50 PM (KST).
