Lee Seo, who debuted as the youngest member of the group IVE in December 2021, quickly made his name known to the public through his debut single 'ELEVEN' despite his difficult rookie years. During the 'Eleven' music broadcasting activities, a professional figure who was not embarrassed by a close-up shot of the camera drew attention through various social media.
His confident eyes, natural gestures, and humiliating visuals gave Lee the title of 「Heavenly Idol」, and Lee wrote a remarkable growth history under the support and interest of numerous fans.
In its fifth year, IVE recently won eight awards on music programs with the pre-released song of its third mini-album 'VE EMPATHY'REBEL HEART'
In particular, Lee Seo perfectly performed an encore live alone after receiving the No. 1 trophy on SBS 'Inkigayo', where he was the MC during the hiatus after Ive's 'Rebel Heart' activity ended on the 2nd, and related videos were uploaded on domestic YouTube 'Invigorating' (popular soaring video) every day. Proving endless growth, we looked at Lee Seo's performance, which is now capturing the public's hearts beyond fandom.

Lee Seo was selected as a regular MC of 'Inkigayo' in April last year and is currently energizing energy every Sunday afternoon. Despite being her first MC, Lee Seo earned favorable reviews from K-pop fans by showing her clear pronunciation and flexible hosting skills, and despite being busy with group activities including last year's world tour, she has faithfully kept the MC seat.
Lee Seo-seo, who is more relaxed as he repeats, adds his unique humor to the introduction of the song to increase his concentration, and he also led interviews with senior and junior groups with wit, becoming an irreplaceable vitamin-like MC.

Attention is also drawn to Lee Seo's challenge at the interview section of the 'Inkigayo' interview. Lee Seo, who has drawn attention for his neat dance lines and delicate strength control, participates in dance challenges of numerous K-pop groups regardless of genre through 'Inkigayo' every week and plays a role as a 'K-pop challenge vending machine'.
Due to the nature of weekly music broadcasts, there must have been a time limit. Despite the tight schedule, Lee Seo's ability to learn the choreography of other groups and show perfect digestibility is truly impressive. In addition, Lee Seo did her best every moment even if there was a moment when she had to learn choreography on the spot, making the moment of the comeback of the senior and junior artists even more prominent.

Lee Seo, who debuted at the young age of 14 in 2021, is now establishing himself as the 'national youngest'. This is thanks to Lee Seo's first-place encore fancam of 「Inkigayo" posted on the YouTube channel"SBSKPOPX INKIGAYO" on the 4th (February 2nd).
The video showed Lee Seo performing an encore live on behalf of the members after winning first place for two consecutive weeks with the new pre-release song 'Rebel Heart' on the 2nd. Although it would be burdensome to perform live alone, Lee Seo performed all the other members' parts live, put down the trophy and performed choreography, and performed 'DangBaek'.
Lee Seo's encore live video was ranked on YouTube in Korea 'In class' immediately after its release, and it continues to receive hot attention, exceeding 910,000 views on YouTube within five days of its release. The youngest member of the group, who looked young, became a singer in his fifth year and won the No. 1 trophy on his music show, and bravely performed live, mesmerized the public beyond the fandom.
While many people who are proud of Lee Seo's appearance continue to receive favorable reviews, expectations are high for Lee Seo's move of "the youngest of the people" which still has a long way to show.
Meanwhile, IVE (IVE: Ahn Yu-jin, Autumn, Ray, Jang Won-young, Liz, and Lee Seo), to which Lee Seo belongs, performed the comeback stage of 'attitude' on SBS 'Inkigayo' on the 9th.
