1. A multi-layer ceramic electronic component, comprising:
a ceramic body including
a protective portion including
an end surface facing in a first direction,
circumferential surfaces connected to the end surface and extending in the first direction, and
a ridge that includes a recess and an outer edge and connects the circumferential surfaces, the recess extending along the first direction, the outer edge including an edge, the edge being formed at the outer edge and bulging outward, and
a functional portion disposed inside the protective portion, and including internal electrodes laminated in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction; and
an external electrode including
a base film covering the end surface,
an intermediate film formed on the base film, and
a surface film formed on the intermediate film,
wherein the base film includes
a first covering portion formed on the end surface,
second covering portions formed on the respective circumferential surfaces, and
a third covering portion formed on the recess and spaced apart from at least one of the second covering portions at the edge,
the intermediate film continuously covers the first covering portion, the second covering portions, and the third covering portion, and
the recess is disposed outside end portions of the plurality of internal electrodes in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction.
