SNSD's Yoona and male actor Kwon Sangwoo have been developing great chemistry acting alongside each other in MBC's upcoming drama "Cinderella Man".

At the Newsen press conference on the 27th, Yoona smiled saying, "I've been so busy with the filming of the drama everyday." She followed by adding, "Filming proceeded smoothly and happily for me as the staff and cast treat me very well."

Yoona will be acting as fashion designer Seo Yujin in "Cinderella Man" which is set to air on April 15th.

Besides having great chemistry during the filming, Yoona and Kwon Sangwoo had both been sharing approving comments about each other outside the set as well. Kwon Sangwoo had praised Yoona during a recent Newsen interview, saying, "Looking at Yoona almost makes me feel like seeing Shim Eunha sunbaenim again."

Yoona reciprocated by saying, "I'm thankful to have received much expert help from Kwon Sangwoo in acting." She teased jokingly, "He's been looking so happy and blessed because his son was born not too long ago, so much so that he's been using every opportunity to flash the photo of his newborn son to show off how cute his son is."

Yoona then became serious and expressed, "I'm actually under a lot of stress and pressure to perform well for the drama." Aware of her heavy involvement in SNSD's "Gee" promotional activites as a member, Yoona fretted, "I'm very worried and anxious about the inadequacy of preparation for the drama." As for her role as Seo Yujin, Yoona commented, "There are bound to be differences in personality because of the age difference, but I will strive hard to make sure that the character I'm portraying will not appear unnatural and awkward as a result of that."

Yoona will be concluding the last of her promotional activites as a member of SNSD with farewell performances at KBS2TV's "Music Bank" on the 27th, MBC's "Show! Music Core" on the 28th and SBS's "Inkigayo" on the 29th.

omg I definitely cannot wait for 'Cinderella Man' to air...Yoona acting as a fashion designer reminds me a little of 'Factory Girl' not too long ago...hehe...

I'm glad the crew is not too hard on Yoona at the beginning because she was still promoting 'Gee' but Yoona is such a hard worker, I'm sure there's only praises and not much constructive criticism...lol...Just remember a little stress in life is good, it create motivation to do better but being healthy is important too!!! keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for translating the article and posting it up for us :D

This is great Yoona is making a lot of progress. Go Fighting!
Wait, quick question.
There has been rumors going around saying that Yoona might quit SNSD?
Since he's going to pursue an acting career?
Please don't tell me this is true, message me if must.
I don't have documented words to say that these are true, but it's been going around from what I've heard.
Please I got to know ASAP!

NVM question answered, thanks

Its nice to hear the 2 leads are getting along well with each other. Yoona is always the joker and trying to lighten the mood. I hope that Yoona gets some rest now that SNSD activitites are over for now, and the drama does really well.

[rebeday]

cinderella man is going to be amajing! I was so happy when I found out that YoonA was gonna act alongside side a pro actor (hwon sangwoo) this drama will definitely be a great one! and YoonA will definitely be great＜３
