On January 11, Lee Joo-bin posted several photos on her SNS account along with the caption: “Sohyun said I look like Tomie!”
In the images, Lee Joo-bin is seen gazing into a mirror with sleek, long black hair and perfectly cut bangs, highlighting her flawless porcelain skin. Her calm yet piercing expression drew comparisons to the chilling yet seductive character Tomie from Junji Ito’s legendary Japanese horror manga series.
When the photo was placed side by side with an illustration of Tomie, the resemblance was uncanny — both exuding an aura that’s simultaneously beautiful and unsettling. Fans were left in awe, calling her visuals “unreal” and “out of this world.”
Currently, Lee is starring in tvN’s Monday-Tuesday drama “Spring Fever” , where she plays Yoon Bom , a teacher carrying the burden of a painful past. Her portrayal of the character’s inner wounds and emotional complexity, especially in scenes shared with co-star Ahn Bo-hyun , has earned praise for its nuanced depth.
“Spring Fever” has made a strong debut, recording 4.8% viewership for episode 1 and 4.6% for episode 2 (nationwide households). Notably, it ranked No.1 across all networks during its timeslot in the 2049 demographic — tvN’s key target audience — positioning it as a rising contender in the Monday-Tuesday drama slot.
