Following Yoona and Sooyoung, Girls’ Generation’s Yuri will be making her attempt at acting in a drama. Yuri was offered the lead female role in an upcoming SBS drama “Fashion King”, and she is currently working on adjusting conditions to sign on for the drama.
A contract hasn’t been signed yet, but they are modifying terms accordingly with Girls’ Generation’s schedule and the drama’s filiming schedule. The agreement will be complete by the middle of this month and Yuri will participate in the filming.
“Fashion King” will be about a young man starting in the Dongdaemun market and succeeding in the fashion world. Yoo Ah-in, from “Sungkyunkwan Scandal” and the film “Wandeuki”, is a possible candidate for the lead male role, while Shin Sekyung is also a possible candidate for a female role.
Yuri received many offers to star in dramas. However, despite all the calls, Yuri only appeared in music videos or sitcoms.
A member behind “Fashion King” stated, “I watched her crying in a music video. I don’t think we would run into any problems casting her on the set of a shoot. I felt she would be able to act in different roles, from a teen role to one in her twenties.”

she have been wanting to be cast in a drama…
this might be a dream come true for her!
that’s great!!! female lead role is a big thing and i hope she’ll do great!
good luck Yul!! but i agree with olyka1122…… if with that ‘muah muah’ i want it to be with a handsome man :/ . but as much as possible i don’t want her with kissing scene!
There was an article of plagiarism issue in 2009 about cinderella man and fashion king…It was like the people behind fashion king sued the production of cinderella man..they were in court and all…SO like, fashion king was made years ago already..even before cinderella man..but cinderella man was filmed first…
lookin forward for this
Ooooh~! Reminds me of Cinderella Man!
This will be interesting!
Woooh..
This will be a good breakthrough for Yuri.
Actress Yul will be something fresh.
Hopefully they can agree on terms and work this out.
Yuri hwaiting! :)
yuri’s drama :3
THIS is what i call a SNSD Comeback. All 9 angels on biard on solo and group projects
i am so excited that Yuri will appear in drama.
seriously Yuri is very good at acting. i was so touched when i watched her crying in K. Will’s MV. this is really great opportunity for her to challenge herself in acting and it’s also her dream to become an actress.
Good luck for Yuri!!!!!
huh ? yoona has tried lead roles before ?
i thought 《You Are My Destiny》and 《Male Version of Cinderella》, yoona is the main actress ?
omg ! finally ! yuri has casted in drama !! i have heard that yuri has missied many dramas since they need to fly here and there and of course their schedule are full. Although this is just her lead role, i think yuri is jumping for joy ^^
Why does it have to be in a competition with Love Rain? That’s just not fair. o.o
YEY! 3 down for the tall team…ur next Seohyun xD Our Yul finally gets her own drama (if she ever accepts the offer)…I’m so happy for Yuri, Sooyoung, and Yoona, and of course, for the rest of the members of Girls’ Generation. I hope they’ll give the other members a cameo scene in each of their dramas.
SNSD JJANG!
waaaa cant wait for the drama!! congrats Yuri Unnie, I hope everything will go well n I’ll always support u no matter what!
I looked at Yoo Ah in pictures already, he looks handsome n a bit young-ish too, but I approve haha..
so many dramas to watch next year, “love rain”, “speed” and “fashion king”
JUst sign the contract!!!hehehehhe
YURI <3
im so excited cuz i love Yoo Ah in he's so cool and handsome lol
best luck for you Yul <3
Kissing scene is allowed… Y U guys sound so selfish, in every drama there should be a kissing scene. kekeke…
I’m really excited for Yuri unnie in drama.
and I’m waiting for Yoong drama too~
Hope to see all 9 girl in drama. that’s gonna be awesomeee~!
is it me or this ‘summary’ sounds like Cinderella Man to me… its simliar to the storyline of cinderella man, male works in dongdaemun, finds yoona and becomes a happy couple.. evil person comes up and they hav many problems, in the end the lead male also becomes a successful person.. :|
hopefully there’ll be something new in this drama.. i’ll still watch it no matter what cause yul’s in it!! :D just, dont hav kissing scenes.. PLEASE
Looks like ill have 3 dramas to watch next year ! ahaha
okay, i’d agree but no kissing scenes (lol, i sound so greedy)..nvm.. if she does act in this drama i’ll support her all the way!! i hope SNSD would rest a bit though and loosen their schedules a bit…
Congratulations Unnie!!!
We Will give our support and Love <33
Yepeee :) Our Yul unnie is an actress NOW!
im superrrrrr duperrr excited!!
Just one Disadvantage..
Every Lead roles Usually kiss each other
It happens to Yoona.
Sorry guys, i don’t want my Yuri to be like this.
Well.. If there’s no ”muah muah” I’ll be soooo damn excited!!!!!!!
