How Did Yuri Accumulate Her Net Worth?
Like most idols, Yuri earned a significant amount of her net worth through her activities as a member of Girls' Generation, such as from the group's earnings from their promotions, music releases, endorsement deals, TV appearances, and more.
Following the second-generation girl group's debut into the K-Pop industry, they went on to become one of the top-performing and best-selling girl groups from their generation, earning them the title of the "Nation's Girl Group" and allowing them to earn a considerable amount of money as a whole.
The group's domestic and international success, as well as being one of the most in-demand groups, led Girls' Generation to become a "super brand," which translates to how much the group and each member earned while they were promoting.
As the years went by, each member decided to pursue their own individual careers as well. Like fellow members Seohyun, YoonA, and Sooyoung, Yuri pursued a career as an actress.
She has so far starred and became the leading lady in several K-Dramas and films, such as "Unstoppable Marriage," "Fashion King," "Gogh, The Starry Night," "Dae Jang Geum Is Watching," "No Breathing," and "Bossam: Steal the Fate," among many others.
