She attended Sehwa Girls' High School, and currently attends Ewha Womans University majoring in the Science Education but is currently on a leave of absence to pursue her dream of being a celebrity. [2] As she was growing up, her parents wanted her to pursue a career in the medical field due to her mother being a pharmacist and her father being a doctor. However, when attending university she wasn't sure if she was happy pursing the university major that she chose and wanted to be a celebrity instead. [3]

## Career[edit]

### 2021–2022: My Teenage Girl[edit]

On September 8, 2021, Kim appeared in a trailer for My Teenage Girl, confirming her participation. At the beginning of the show, she was eliminated due to not having enough points to pass to the next round. [4] However, the mentor Jeon So-yeon revived her back into the show. So-yeon stated, when searching My Teenage Girl online, Yoo-yeon shows up first on the searches, this shows that she is someone who can catch the eye as a celebrity, and it is a charm that can be helpful to an idol group.[5] Yoo-yeon consistently ranked within the top three as the show progressed and unfortunately finished in eighth place in the final episode due to lack of benefit points, unable to debut in the final group.[6]

### 2022-present: Debut with tripleS[edit]

On July 11, 2022, Yoo-yeon was announced to be a member of tripleS as the fifth member.[7] Yoo-yeon stated that her 'heart hurt' after seeing her fans continuously wait for her to make her debut, so she gave the idol life a second chance as she is happiest when she is on stage. [8]

[9]She became a member of the group's sub-unit Acid Angel from Asia on September 25, 2022 and the sub-unit officially debuted on October 27, 2022 as the sub-unit's leader. [10]

[17] She was named one of the top five visual contestants of My Teenage Girl, along with fellow tripleS member, Lee Ji-woo, as well as CLASS:y's Myung Hyung-seo and Kim Ri-won. [14]

She is often said to resemble DIA's Jung Chae-yeon and is said to share similar visuals, such as immaculate skin, delicate features, and an innocent image, netizens believed that their features look so much a like that they could be sisters. [18] Due to her ending fairy on My Teenage Girl, viewers said it gave a similar feel to DIA's Jung Chae-yeon's ending fairy during Produce 101. [17]

### Influence[edit]
