Netflix‘s new K-Drama Mask Girl, adapted from the Naver Webtoon of the same name, recently premiered.

The anticipated thriller series has met viewers’ expectations with phenomenal cinematography, story, and actors.

Kim Mo-mi (Lee Han-byeol/Go Hyun-jung/Nana), an office worker who is insecure about her looks, becomes a masked internet personality by night — until a chain of unexpected, ill-fated events overtakes her life.

Even before it aired, Webtoon-readers were in awe of the casting, especially of Lee Han Byeol, who portrayed the main character Kim Mo Mi pre-surgery.

But Lee Han Byeol has earned even more praise since Mask Girl premiered on Netflix. Viewers are in awe of her performance.

Lee Han Byeol actually ate this role up. I’m shocked that it’s a debut performance. https://t.co/uHzelmIIG2

Many are in disbelief that Mask Girl is the actress’ debut role. Any viral clip of the cast on TikTok has netizens singing Lee Han Byeol’s praises. Many are rooting for her, hoping that she gets cast in many more roles after the success of Mask Girl.

While Kim Mo Mi was considered ugly, and Lee Han Byeol herself has said that she encountered hurtful moments due to her appearance, netizens only have good things to say about the actress. They agree that she is actually beautiful and could be a model.
