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. Yuri is planning to attend the first film shoot to see how it feels.
The drama is scheduled to air its pilot episode in March of next year, and Yuri is considering the role of the female lead.
"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.
An insider from 'Fashion King' remarked, "We saw her shed tears on the spot in a MV, and we know that her acting skills will not fall short even if she were to join us on set immediately. She can play multiples roles, ranging from a young teenager character to a mature woman in her 20′s."
If Yuri does end up accepting the casting offer, she could be competing against fellow member YoonA for ratings, who will be playing a significant role in her own drama. 'Fashion King' will be airing around the same time as YoonA's 'Love Rain'.
