This marks Yuna’s second major acting endeavor since her 2019 debut. Prior to this project, she was confirmed to appear in tvN’s upcoming drama Undercover Miss Hong, starring Park Shin-hye and Go Kyung-pyo, in which she will portray Park Shin-hye’s younger sister. With multiple acting offers coming her way, Yuna is quickly emerging as a next-generation “acting idol” poised to make a strong impression in both music and television.

ITZY is also gearing up for their third world tour, TUNNEL VISION, which will kick off from February 13–15 next year at the Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul, continuing their global rise.

Yuna’s seamless balance of idol activities and acting projects underscores her versatility and the growing influence of K-pop idols in mainstream acting. Fans and industry insiders alike are eagerly anticipating her performance in My Favorite Employee.
