Actress Yura, a former member of the girl group Girl’s Day, shared behind-the-scenes information regarding the talk of the latter casting for ‘Family Glory: Returns’.

Yura had an interview with Star News at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Seoul at 1pm on the 26th and told several stories related to the movie ‘Family Glory: Returns’.

‘Family Glory: Returns’, released on the 21st, depicts the Jang family’s life-or-death wedding plan, which hatches all kinds of conspiracies to get the family’s youngest daughter, Jin-kyung (Yoo Ra), to marry a popular star writer, Dae-seo (played by Yoon Hyun-min) a comedy.

Yura played Jin-kyung, the youngest daughter of the Jang family, in ‘Family Glory: Returns’.

First of the day, Yura said, “It was amazing because it was my first time greeting on stage. A lot of people came and it felt strange. There were definitely a lot of people with a higher average age. I remember the Daegu people encourage me a lot.”

When asked about playing the main role on screen, Yura said, “I was very moved and had a lot of fun filming it. Maybe because the film has a very exciting atmosphere, we came together as a team, and it was fun to prepare as if we were putting together a skit, less rushed than in a play and with lots of meetings.” “There was,” he said.

“This is the first time I’ve played such a big role, so the responsibility was different. This was the first time I worked on two works together in a drama film, so it was nice to be able to show different aspects of myself through the film. I felt bad because people were criticizing my character in the play again. “It was different.”

Yura shared a behind-the-scenes look at the filming site and naturally shared the secret behind the casting, saying, “I tend to be there as early as possible to do standby before as soon as possible. I try to do that on set so as not to cause trouble because of me.” Yura also mentioned that director Jeong Tae-won said, “Casting Yoon Hyun-min and Yura was not the first priority.”

“We got so close during filming that the director was actually very playful. People asked me why I was talking about secondary casting, but it is not easy to be a priority in every project, but MSG was put on the table. t like the other actors, but when you appeared, the reaction was good.’, and the director said that he suddenly remembered me from ‘SNL’. He said that the mention of ‘Ural Mountains’ reminded him of the a scene where I use a dialect. And ‘Family Glory’ was a work I saw when I was a baby. After filming the drama, I was in a very empty state when I got the offer. Ro I was very happy and it was a series I enjoyed watching, but they said it was too urgent and asked me to make a decision quickly. The content framework was the same, so I decided to join later. Nothing but Jin-kyung’s roles were very bad. “He had an easy look. The character was very similar to myself.”

Yura continued, “Filming for a movie was a little different from shooting for a drama. The meetings were so long and I had to put a lot of effort into it, so I got used to it quickly thinking about how to make it fun.”

“I followed the script, but I tried to make it interesting and act like a corner. I didn’t have many scenes with teacher Kim Soo-mi. Most of the time, Hyun-min Yoon and Jae-hoon Tak were often by my side. I saw them swear when they were young. Haha.”
