Jo Yu-ri, who plays Jeon Do-yeon's middle school self, is 25 years old?

“I really thought they brought a real middle school student.”

Unexpected reactions poured in after singer and actress Jo Yu-ri revealed photos from the filming set of the movie 'Possible Love', in which she plays the childhood of Jeon Do-yeon. With only short hair and retro styling, she captured attention by completing a fresh atmosphere that looks like an actual middle school student.

On the 3rd, Jo Yu-ri posted several photos taken at the movie filming set on her SNS with the short caption, “Possible.” In the photos, Jo Yu-ri appeared completely immersed in her character with a neat short haircut and retro clothing.

In particular, Jo Yu-ri, captured in a field bathed in the glow of the sunset, exuded a faint yet fresh atmosphere. Fans' attention naturally shifted to her appearance, which was markedly different from the image she usually shows on stage.

The atmosphere on set was also harmonious. Jo Yu-ri conveyed a playful atmosphere on set by showing herself cooling off from the heat by placing ice packs on her head or chin alongside the fellow actors. A photo taken alongside director Lee Chang-dong was also released, drawing interest in the film.

The reactions from netizens who saw the photos were intense. Comments praising the high synchronization with the character continued, such as “When I saw it in the movie, I really thought they brought a real middle school student,” “I had no idea Jeon Do-yeon's child actor was Jo Yu-ri,” and “She sings well and acts well well.”

In 'Possible Love', Jo Yu-ri portrays the narrative of Mi-ok, played by Jeon Do-yeon, from her middle school years to her early adulthood. She is evaluated as leaving a strong impression by not merely implementing a similar appearance but also naturally expressing the character's growth process.

Jo Yu-ri, a member of the project girl group Iz*One, will become a full adult turning 25 on the 22nd. However, in this work, she has drawn praise for perfectly pulling off her own age as well as a period nearly 10 years younger than that.

The movie 'Possible Love' tells the story of two couples—a laid-off worker and his wife, and a documentary director and her husband—who meet to produce a documentary and face different lives and hidden desires. It was released in limited theaters on the 23rd of last month and is scheduled to be released through Netflix on November 6.
