    Never mind Valentine's Day—it's Love Is Blind season! The first four episodes of season two of Netflix's hit dating experiment dropped on February 11, 2022, and one cast member that immediately makes a connection is Natalie Lee, a 29-year-old consulting manager. The Chicago resident is open about what she's looking for, and is determined to find someone who has a similar lifestyle. While you binge the first batch of Love Is Blind episodes, get to know her.

    Natalie Lee is a consulting manager who lives in Chicago and comes from a Korean family. When asked what she would tell the love of her life, she said, "I would tell them I have IBS and I go to the bathroom five times a day, but, hopefully, he loves me for who I am and is still willing to get married to me!"

    In the first episode, she says that she's more loud, outgoing, career-oriented, and opinionated, and that her dates would be surprised at her personality because of how she looks, mentioning stereotypes about Asian women being quiet and submissive. She also notes that her work is very important to her, and her husband would have to be okay with that and be willing to attend work events.
