Building her acting portfolio
Before stepping into “My Favorite Employee,” Yuna already confirmed another major project. She will star in the new tvN drama “Undercover Miss Hong,” set to air next year alongside Park Shin-hye and Go Kyung-pyo. In that show, she plays Park Shin-hye’s younger sister, adding another dynamic role to her portfolio. With two acting gigs in her bag, Yuna is quickly emerging as one of the most promising next-generation idol actresses.
ITZY’s ongoing momentum
While Yuna builds her acting career, she’s also thriving as part of ITZY. Last October, the group made a comeback with their album “TUNNEL VISION,” showcasing powerful performances and songs that reaffirmed their status as one of K-pop’s most important girl groups. On November 21st, they celebrated a Music Bank win, sharing the moment with MIDZY, after not winning as a five-piece group for a while. Finally, kicking off from February 13th to 15th at the Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul, ITZY will begin their world tour “TUNNEL VISION.”
