Girls' Generation’s Yuri becomes a yoga instructor and donates all proceeds to help stray dogs

Girls' Generation’s Yuri has transformed into a yoga instructor for a good cause.

On July 26, Yuri took on the role and successfully completed her first class—a special session of "donation yoga" held to support stray dogs. She met with participants and led them through the meaningful event.

The class took place from 2 PM to 4 PM at a venue in Jeju City, with a participation fee of 50,000 won. Her first session raised 1.85 million won, with all proceeds donated.

A representative involved in organizing the event shared, "The afterglow of this touching moment will last a while. To everyone who joined us on-site for yoga today, those who sent their support via messages, those who supported us in spirit, and everyone who helped prepare everything—thank you, thank you so much," and added, "The total class fee of 1.85 million won, including the support from today's yoga session with Kwon Yuri, will be used meaningfully for the lives in protection."

Yuri drew attention by personally stepping up and using her positive influence to support stray dog welfare.

In the photos released from the session, Yuri exudes the presence of a yoga master—demonstrating poses herself and coaching participants with care and confidence.

Earlier, singer Lee Hyori also showed her support by liking the post announcing Yuri’s donation yoga class.

Congratulations to Yuri on her successful and heartfelt fundraising effort!
