Maneflo Aug 08 2022 7:07 am I don't like her. She's a good actress but, mehn! Always on the bad side.

Manuver7 Aug 03 2022 6:57 am Her acting most likely suits as 'high-ranking' ish role in many fiction establishment drama, she potrayed the strong character convinced me very well! Multi talented actor indeed!

Darsh Jan 15 2022 8:46 am She is super multi talented and graceful in hotel del luna.....beautiful acting...

I just loved her acting ...awesome you are

Archana Kumar Jan 09 2022 4:26 am Fine and sensitive acting in 'The world of the married'

Kris Jul 20 2021 10:21 am Am watching hotel del luna. She is so talented.

Seyi Jan 21 2021 10:32 am I really like her role Mago in Hotel Del Luna, I am such a big fan. She is such a great actress, first I saw her in the Kdrama Hwatu/Empress Ki, playing the role of Court Lady Seo and she really did well on that drama. It’s really nice because she played many roles and that’s a pro. She gave a different shot and flavors in each one of those roles. Amazing! Bravo!

Rifki Hardiyanto Dec 06 2020 2:17 pm this "MAGO" is always have important / high status character in dramas lol =)) i watch HDL, World Merriage, and now start up, really charismatic actress!!

Shanetel Nov 27 2020 8:40 am Wow! Just wow awesome! Can’t imagine how can she manage her schedule. She’s in two different dramas dodosolsollalasol (she’s quiet funny there and caring mother) and start-up different character again. Woaaa! She’s so talented

lrt Nov 25 2020 4:43 am I am such a hugh fan. She is the most versatile actress in drama land … hands down!! She never fails to bring it home in the many roles I've seen. Just loooooove her!!!

onceuponakinga May 18 2020 4:28 am @Emily McDonald she was a theatrical actress before she joined the "drama team". i like her very much, very good actress. she should be given at least a second lead role or a big supporting role. she deserves bigger roles, IMHO.

Emily McDonald Jan 13 2020 1:05 am Did her acting career only start at age 42? What did she do previously?

ting Nov 28 2019 1:26 pm @Anna Although they said not to number the deities, but for ease of understanding, I will describe her different characters in sequence of appearance. With that said, here goes.

1. Florist Mago. I'm sure we are all familiar with the first and most prominent Mago, with her iconic flower basket. She is the one who decides who will be the next owner of the Guest House of the Moon. She gives people choices, but somehow she seems to already know what everyone will choose. She doesn't give answers, but she prompts the people who question, and doesn't correct people even when they are wrong.

2. Pharmacist Mago. Seems to be the owner of the pharmacy. She was the one who provided Chan-seong with the body ache medicine and the medicine to remove the ability to see ghost. She was also the one to ferment the new wine. She seems to prefer to give direct answers when questioned.

3. God of Love. I believe that's what the third Mago is. She brought Detective Young-soo and Chan-seong's friend Mi-ra together with the handwoven heart shaped craft ball pen she gave to Young-soo.

4. God of Death. This Mago is the one who gets rid of vengeful ghosts. She almost took Yoo-na's life for possessing a human body but was stopped by the Grim Reaper. She was also the one to removed Guest in room #13 and she was the most eager one for Man-weol to cease to exist.

5. God of Wealth. One of the trivial Magos. It is said that contact with her brings you wealth. Man-weol's favourite Mago, she calls her "Unnie" and is very friendly with her. Wealth Mago brought prosperity to Man-weol's guest house when it wasn't doing well.

6. God of Poverty. Another more trivial form. She appeared in Man-weol Lodge 200 years ago, shown in Chan-seong's time travel. Was sent there as punishment for Man-weol for cheating with a ghost gambler. She was portrayed as a beggar who always win against Man-weol, making Man-weol poorer. She only left when Chan-seong beat her in the game of "Go".

Anna Nov 04 2019 4:07 am Anyone can explain to me the aspects of magu that she played as? Confused and just curious~

Carl Oct 30 2019 12:51 am Woah she has so many different characters (I think it was 4 or 5?) in Hotel Del Luna yet she portrayed each one uniquely with each character's own traits. Hands down to her! Wow

Mina Sep 06 2019 11:41 pm She was really good in Hotel Del Luna. Played a diverse group of alternate people very well. Glad I was introduced to her amazing acting.

Cycloner Sep 03 2019 7:21 am Great actress. Able to portray as 4 different God Mago characteristic perfectly. Thumps up for her.

GodJihyo Aug 20 2019 1:29 am I saw her first in The Banker. I didn't know she was the 4 deities in Hotel Del Luna. Great acting in both dramas especially in Hotel Del Luna when she confronted IU in Yeo Jin Goo house. I will support her dramas from now on

Lily84 Aug 10 2019 8:46 pm A very great actress, she portrays 4 different character as Mago in Hotel De Luna brilliantly, hands down.

lrt Jul 11 2019 6:45 pm I can't help but post again...this lady rocks!!! She is so fuuuunnnny in My Dear Cat. She is the best. Honestly sooooo good as the deprived wife. Those faces she makes. No words needed, Just a great actress!!

tserena Nov 02 2018 3:53 am she is best actress of world.

lrt Apr 06 2018 8:50 am She is hands down one of the best character actors ever!!! ...making the dramas I have watched worth watching...

Draman Mar 25 2018 12:35 pm Seo Yi Sook could be the best actress in the world

suzukosatoh Jan 07 2018 11:27 am She acted very well. I like the way she acts in the movie Good Thief Bad Thief. She tried her best and perfected her charisma. Always support her!!!

neron625 Dec 20 2017 5:20 pm Pretty and talented actress always makes an impeccable role in all his works

Chain Sep 18 2017 3:23 am Simple words, she is the best. Her acting is so perfect, some of the Korean actors and actresses seems to me over acting and over crying. Every role she played I fully satisfied. She has very strong personality.

ALMARIO -M E Sep 08 2017 1:27 am Great actress that has never disappointed. So many great films ranging from historical to modern day. Truly a pleasure watching you in so many great films and dramas! Thank you!

Bake Sep 01 2017 9:50 pm Every role I've seen you in, good or evil, you make believable. Great job, and I'm looking forward to seeing you again.

Draman USA Jul 25 2017 2:36 pm The Great Seo Yi Sook,

Is one of the most gifted, and powerful drama performers I have ever seen. Somehow without pause, or lack of a better word she has the extraordinary ability to take hold of the camera lens to pull us all in for a acting experience unmatched by anyone. I'm sure you have noticed, she steals every scene she is in without question. What else can I say......she is the great one!

Vey Vey Sep 18 2016 2:46 am Wow I couldnt recognize you in some drama because you became different person. Very talented actress!

Chloe-USA Jun 20 2016 7:21 pm Seo Yi-Sook: You are such a power of talent!!! I love watching you!!! You are one to watch!!! Beauty and a powerhouse presence!!!

martin fennell Dec 07 2015 9:12 pm Just discovered her in you're all surrounded. Excellent actress.

H. David Richard Jun 03 2015 10:33 pm Hey, this woman, Seo Yi-Sook, is amazing. The eyes and the smile, capture my soul. Good Role or Bad Role, this actress is for me! Wow.

dramADDICT Aug 11 2014 4:26 pm She is one of the most talented and versatile actors out there. She plays both the good and evil characters in multiple dramas simultaneously! I don't know where she finds the energy considering the efforts required to support a Korean drama like Empress Ki and King's Daughter Soo Baek Hyang, both went on for months. She did both at the same time and was flawless. She followed up with You're All Surrounded playing the police captain in that drama while still playing a mother showing perfect comedic timing in the comedy My Dear Cat. She added another drama, Dairy of a Night Watchman, which is ongoing now while My Dear Cat runs it's course. She is a 2nd or 3rd lead that is a key part of many notable Korean dramas and romantic comedies! She deserves a lead role in my humble opinion!!!!

tp Apr 17 2014 2:27 pm I really like this actress in "Empress Ki" cuz her character is so amusing. She looks much much better & more beautiful here than in Empress Ki though. Good luck!
