During an interview for her recently ended drama series, "The K2," YoonA talked about the support she is getting from her co-members in Girls' Generation.

YoonA revealed the Girls' Generation members tend to look after each other in their respective projects. "We tend to monitor for one other when someone films a drama or makes a comeback," YoonA said as cited by Allkpop.

She went on, "They take photos of themselves watching the first episode and share it on our group chat. Some also ask about how the story will go here and there."

Currently, the Girls' Generation member stars on "The K2" with Ji Chang Wook, Song Yun Ah and Jo Sung Ha. After the drama series reached a five percent viewership, tvN announced YoonA and Ji will be fulfilling their promise to personally treat their viewers with coffee, Soompi noted.

Reports suggested "The K2" crossed the five percent mark on Nov. 7 after an episode recorded a viewership of 5.1 percent. As a result, YoonA and Ji gave out 100 cups of coffee to their viewers in Gangnam.

Meanwhile, YoonA looked back on the challenges she went through before reaching this far. The Girls' Generation member revealed she auditioned for over 200 times before she joined the girl group.

"When I first entered my agency, before I officially debuted as a member of Girls' Generation, I went to over 200 auditions. It wasn't just for dramas and movies but also for advertisements as well," she said.

YoonA continued, "There were a few parts that I did get and film for. But after that many auditions, you start to develop thick skin and become more confident."

"The K2" aired its final episode on Nov. 12.
