Girl's Day Yura stars as Bae Kyung-hwa in 2024 film Hauch

Girl’s Day Yura played Bae Kyung-hwa in the 2024 film Hauch, released under the Korean title 하우치 (Howchi). Daily Sports pitched the casting as her return to the big screen, framing the role as her push to claim the nation’s-first-love image.

The role lands as a real screen comeback. Yura’s most recent feature before it was Marrying the Mafia: Returns in 2023, where she played Jang Jin-kyung. That performance won her the Best New Actress Award at the 2024 Golden Cinematography Awards, so Hauch stands as her first film since the prize.

The Daily Sports headline led with her group identity, opening on “Girl’s Day Yura” before moving into the comeback news. The outlet stacked her name, the Howchi return, and the nation’s-first-love tagline into a single line, setting all three side by side.

Yura is credited as Bae Kyung-hwa in Hauch. Daily Sports dated its coverage to November 7, 2024, with Lee Ju-in reporting.
