In recent news, Kwon Yuri, the beloved member of Girls' Generation who has successfully established herself as an actress, has shared her dramatic transformation for her latest film, *Somebody*. During her appearance on KBS Cool FM's **Lee Eun Ji's Music Plaza** on March 14, Yuri opened up about the challenges she faced, particularly highlighting her 7kg weight gain specifically for the role.

Yuri plays a unique character in *Somebody* – a special cleaning service worker tasked with the sensitive job of cleaning up after those who have passed away. “This role delves into the delicate boundary between life and death, which is so different from my usual cheerful persona. I embraced this opportunity as a new challenge,” she explained, showcasing her commitment to her craft.

The film confronts heavy themes and requires Yuri to display a stark contrast to her typical image. Host Lee Eun Ji inquired about the research involved in such an unfamiliar profession, as well as any physical adjustments she had to make. Kwon Yuri noted that in the latter part of the movie, her character’s back-and-forth with co-star Lee Seol requires her to embody a cynical and emotionless personality. “To capture that essence, I changed my usual look dramatically, covering my eyebrows with my bangs to create a more serious appearance,” she mentioned.

In an interesting twist, Kwak Sun Young, a fellow actor in the film, pointed out that Yuri had also altered her skin tone to resonate more with her character's traits, a testament to the lengths she will go to for her roles. Yuri further revealed that she even added freckles to her complexion, a meticulous detail that showcases her attention to character development.

The actress's weight gain was not solely for the film, as she was simultaneously filming the tvN drama *Parole Examiner Lee*, which contributed to her overall transformation. Before the release of *Somebody* on March 12, fans have been buzzing with curiosity about this new chapter in Yuri’s career.

As the movie continues to capture the attention of audiences nationwide, it’s clear that Kwon Yuri’s dedication to her art knows no bounds. Stay tuned as we look forward to seeing her navigate these challenging roles with such authenticity and passion!
