Girls' Generation's Yuri has shared a playful response to suggestions that she is following Lee Hyori's lifestyle, particularly her love for Jeju Island, yoga, and relaxed living.
Yuri is set to appear as a special guest on the November 9 episode of JTBC's variety show *Dating War*, where she will address the similarities between her daily life and Lee Hyori's.
The Girls' Generation member currently spends her time between Seoul and Jeju Island.
Through her appearances on MBC's *I Live Alone*, Yuri has shared glimpses of her life in Jeju, including practicing yoga, wearing comfortable outfits, and spending time with her dog.
Her lifestyle has drawn comparisons to Lee Hyori, who previously lived on Jeju Island for several years with her husband, Lee Sang Soon.
Lee Hyori also became known for sharing her yoga routines, animal rescue activities, and peaceful daily life on the island.
When the topic of Yuri supposedly following Lee Hyori's lifestyle comes up during *Dating War*, Yuri responds with a lighthearted question.
*"Is there anyone who doesn't follow Hyori unnie? How can you not want to be like Lee Hyori?"* she jokes.
Her unexpected response makes Lee Hyori laugh.
Rather than taking the comparison seriously, Lee Hyori playfully defends Yuri by pointing out an interesting detail about their shared interest in yoga.
*"Yuri actually started doing yoga before I did,"* Lee Hyori reveals.
The conversation continues with another funny exchange involving Yuri's unit, Hyori-su.
Noticing how similar the name sounds to her own, Lee Hyori jokes, *"It sounds like my name. You should at least give me a share."*
Yuri quickly responds with an unexpected invitation.
*"We need to add the surname 'Lee' to make it 'Lee Hyori-su.' How about joining us, unnie?"* she suggests.
The playful exchange highlights the friendly chemistry between the two stars, turning the lifestyle comparisons into a moment of laughter.
Rather than denying Lee Hyori's influence, Yuri openly expresses her admiration while showing that their similar interests are something they can comfortably joke about.
The full conversation will be featured on the November 9 broadcast of JTBC's *Dating War*.
