Fun Facts

❥ YouNa is the youngest in her family, with an older brother who pursued a career as a doctor. Fans affectionately call her "Princess Yuri" due to her adorable and lovable "younger sister" energy.
❥ Although her last acting role was in 2016 as Yoonji in 'My Little Baby', YouNa has expressed her desire to return to acting, particularly in a romantic series.
❥ Thanks to her background as an artistic gymnast before her debut, YouNa is one of the most flexible members of 1SE. She credits her gymnastics experience for her precise and isolated movements in dance, which allow her to perform choreography with exceptional detail.
❥ She shares a special bond with Sira, as the two competed together on Produce 48 and vowed to chase their dreams side by side—a promise they fulfilled by debuting together in 1SE.
❥ Her favorite animal is the jellyfish, and she’s known for her extensive knowledge and trivia about them. Her most popular fansite, "Princess Jellyfish YouNa," is a tribute to this unique interest, and it’s no surprise that her representative emoji is a jellyfish.
