RED VELVET Yeri (Kim Yerim) On 'Common Thursday'

The video features Yeri appearing as a guest and engaging in a conversation with Jo Hyunah. Yeri, who plays the role of a female diver in 'Azur Spring,' reflected, "We took a boat from Tongyeong further in to film on an island. But after going back and forth for about a month, I even lost my fear of bugs. I just kept sleeping with them."

In response to Jo Hyunah saying, “I liked the character,” Yeri recommended, “I think you would enjoy watching it.” Responding to Jo Hyun-ah’s comment that “(the drama) is warm and that kind of thing is needed in this season,” Yeri also said, “It really is needed. Filming is so grueling and physically demanding, but I think this is the first time I’ve actually found comfort from deep within my heart. You praised it highly, saying it felt like ‘Little Forest.’”

Yeri recalled the filming process, saying, “I also went into it with a big resolve before shooting. After all, it’s the role of a female diver. Honestly, I was bound to be conscious of my appearance.” In response, Jo Hyun-ah asked, “Is there a way to cope with wearing the diving suit? Doesn’t your face get squished?” Yeri replied, “So when I first put on the suit and looked at the monitor, I looked like a total steamed bun. That face was already captured in the trailer. But it gets better as time goes on; since my body gets compressed by the clothes, I just tuck the fat in.”

The two also boasted their extraordinary real-life best friend chemistry and shared numerous anecdotes. Yeri confessed, "We met recently and didn't drink a single drop of alcohol; we just ate, went to a cafe, and went to another cafe," adding, "I passed out that night." Then, when asked at the time whether she hoped the appointment would be canceled or not, she honestly said, "I hoped," drawing laughter.

Jo Hyun-ah caused a burst of laughter by self-disclosing, "We kept moving from place to place, and at the second cafe, Apple Pay didn't work, so I asked you to pay. You paid for the meal, too. So, even though I took you there saying I'd buy coffee, I didn't have any money, so I timidly asked, 'Can you treat me?'" Hearing this, Yeri coolly laughed and said, "Of course I can treat you. But why did you ask so timidly?" Regarding Yeri's personality, Jo Hyun-ah explained how they became close, saying, "Yeri is much more decisive than I thought. She has a Solomon-like vibe; whenever I kept calling to ask questions, she would reply, 'No, that's a bit meh.'" She revealed that Yeri has recently been giving her feedback as if managing her Instagram feed, and recently even advised her to "keep your eyes open." Jo Hyun-ah also expressed envy, noting that Yeri, born in 1999, still looks young despite having been in the industry for a long time.

In particular, on this day, Yeri drew the attention of fans by releasing a major spoiler regarding Red Velvet's future activities. When Jo Hyun-ah asked, "Is Red Velvet coming back?", Yeri replied, "Yes, they are," adding, "I think it's okay to say. Red Velvet is coming back. I don't think I should say exactly when, but it's coming soon." She then shared the news of a surprise comeback, saying, "It seems like we will be coming out for the first time in a while with a great song." This heightened the fans' anticipation.
