Reveluvs are in for a treat this 2021, with two acting debuts in the first quarter of the year.
Korean entertainment network tvN announced Red Velvet's Yeri is joining their group of actors for its one-act drama anthology Drama Stage 2021, which is scheduled to air this March 3.
Drama Stage was first launched in 2017, and since then has become tvN's annual drama anthology featuring short screenplays by selected writers.
The network revealed Yeri is part of the lead cast in one of this year's Drama Stage 2021 titled "Mint Condition."
It was described by tvN as a comical but warm story about an old man who transforms into a young man in his twenties due to the breakdown of an MRI machine. He tries to adapt to his regained youth and get along with a group of young hip-hop artists.
Red Velvet's official Twitter revealed that Yeri will be playing the role of a nurse named 홍채리 or Hong Chae-ri.
