Singer and actress Cho Yoo-ri continues her all-round activities.

Cho Yoo-ri first ventured into acting in 2022 with the role of "Orosi" in the web drama "Mimicus." Subsequently, she made a brief but intense impression through a special appearance in the TVING original series "Drunk Elephant 2."

Having steadily built up her acting experience, Cho Yoo-ri firmly established her identity as an actress through Netflix's "Squid Game" Season 2 and Season 3. In the series, she played "Jun-hee," a character who lost a large sum of money after believing in false investment information and subsequently joined the game. Cho Yoo-ri demonstrated her true worth through delicate emotional expression, particularly delivering explosive emotional performances in scenes near the end of the series where she weeps out of fear for survival, earning high praise from viewers both domestically and internationally.

Moreover, Cho Yoo-ri also starred as "Young Mi-ok," the child version of Jeon Do-yeon's character, in director Lee Chang-dong's new Netflix film "Possible Love," released on the 5th. She showcased a clear and fresh charm different from her previous roles, boasting high synchronization with the character. By meticulously building up emotional lines through restrained eye contact and facial expressions, she proved her limitless spectrum, earning evaluations that she has taken another step forward as an actress.

Cho Yoo-ri's journey as an actress continues with the Netflix series "Variety," scheduled for release next year. "Variety" depicts a story where the desires of people surrounding Se-eun (played by Son Ye-jin), the entertainment company representative who planned Korea's top idol group, and Seung-hee, an obsessive fan who follows them around, unfold in various ways. Cho Yoo-ri plays "Seung-hee," a character who spares no effort to meet her favorite member and follows their every move. Attention is focused on how Cho Yoo-ri, who has previously breathed life into characters through calm inner acting, will portray a figure possessing twisted love-hate relationships and obsession this time around.

In this way, Cho Yoo-ri continues to broaden her acting spectrum by constantly taking on new challenges without being limited to any specific genre or character type. As she builds an unparalleled filmography, attention is also drawn to the acting she will showcase in her upcoming work, "Variety."
