Her film work includes Confidential Assignment (2017) and Exit (2019), which became two of the highest-grossing films in South Korea, the latter being her first leading role. On May 30, 2019, Yoona celebrated her 29th birthday (30th in Korean age) with the release of her debut extended play A Walk to Remember, which charted at number three on South Korea's Gaon Album Chart. The success of Yoona's music and acting careers have lead her to various CF deals, notably long-term collaborator Innisfree, and have established her as a top idol-actress of Hallyu.
