Red Velvet's Yeri opened up about a time she didn't want to join the group.
On July 1, a new episode of the web variety show with Red Velvet's Seulgi, Joy, and Yeri was released.
During the episode, Joy shared that she, Irene, Wendy, and Seulgi were picked as the final four members to debut, while Yeri was supposed to be the center of a new girl group.
Talking about that time, Yeri said, "I think my loyalty to my friends was stronger. I don't know what I was thinking, but I said, 'I won't debut,' and 'I'll act instead,'" catching everyone's attention.
Yeri explained, "It wasn't that I disliked the members, but I had dropped out of school to practice, so I didn't have any memories with my school friends. The trainee friends felt like my school friends."
