Top Idol-Actress Divulges Meaningful Reason For Relocating To Jeju Island

A popular Korean idol and actress opened up about why she moved to Jeju Island, giving viewers a glimpse of her personal life.

On the recent broadcast of MBC variety show I Live Alone, actress and Girls’ Generation (also known as SNSD) member Yuri’s daily life on Jeju Island was revealed.

On the show, Yuri said, “When I was extremely busy, the glamorous spotlight and endless schedules brought happiness and popularity, but I felt emptiness in my personal life. I wondered what I could do on my own, what I could handle alone, and realized I was terribly lacking. But here, I gained a lot of courage.”

Yuri confessed she found courage in Jeju, explaining, “I don’t know why I became so brave. Living in Jeju focuses more on making a living. Instead of worrying about appearances or impressions, it’s a place so natural, friendly, and close. When I go to the sea, I feel refreshed inside and think, ‘Kwon Yuri, you can do this. Just try it.’ It’s like vroom vroom and going for it.”

She then shared her thoughts after watching the first footage of her daily life, saying, “I guess I am finding my own path in my own way. I am gaining more confidence in that.”
