IZ*ONE’s Yuri opens official YouTube and Insta accounts as she embarks on solo career
IZ*ONE’s members have been drawing a lot of attention since the band officially disbanded in April of 2021. The twelve-member South Korean-Japanese girl group had crushed fans when their agency decided that they would not relaunch the group despite fans’ efforts. Soon after, some members of IZ*ONE started making news about potential signing with other labels.
Chaewon and Sakura from the group started trending over rumors of them potentially signing with HYBE. That news was quickly confirmed with only Sakura having an exclusive contract with HYBE. Fans were not quite excited about HYBE using members from IZ*ONE individually instead of getting the former group back together.

WIZ*ONE’s are thrilled
Fans were extremely happy to see one of the members debut as a solo artist when Kwon Eunbi released album ‘Open’ on August 24. Another member of the group to appear on a new project will be Chaeyeon - who is all set to join 'Street Woman Dancer', a dance survival show and will be part of the crew ‘WANT.’ Hyewon from IZ*ONE is another member of the group who will soon be part of new variety show ‘How a Family is Made’, where K-Pop Idols live together as a family.
Now another member of IZ*ONE is making news by marking her presence on all social media platforms. On 30 August, Wakeone, the agency under which Jo Yuri is currently signed, made an official announcement saying, "On the afternoon of the 29th, Jo Yuri's official YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook accounts were officially opened." It is said that Yuri plans to present various contents that will attract fans and generate their interest in her. Using the new channels, the agency also plans to share news about her future endeavors as an artist.
This is not Yuri's personal account as she has been operating on her personal instagram before the official account was released.
Yuri is on all social media platforms
After the new accounts were opened, three new personal photos of Jo Yu-ri were released and are currently drawing attention from her fans. The images are black-and-white with a chic yet elegant atmosphere - an image that radiates her girliness in a cute pose.
While other members have signed with new labels, Jo Yuri plans to continue her official activities at Wakeone Entertainment, a new label that combines former self-production and management label artists from Stone Music Entertainment, One Fact Entertainment, Studio Blue and Off the Record into one.
Yuri can be found on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram here.
