Yeri

Yeri is genuinely one of the more interesting members of Red Velvet to watch grow up in public — she joined the group in 2015 when she was barely 16, practically dropped into an already-established lineup mid-promotion cycle, and somehow held her own. What I find compelling is how she's refused to stay in one lane: she's got the polished idol chops from training at Hanlim Multi Art School, but she's also quietly built an acting career on top of it, most notably with Blue Birthday, and you can tell she takes the craft seriously rather than treating it as a side hustle. There's a quiet authenticity to her that a lot of younger K-pop stars lose, and at just 25 by the end of 2024, she's still clearly figuring out who she wants to be — which, honestly, is the most interesting phase to catch an artist in.
