Mine did that too. The driver side, rear. I took off my drum with a couple bolts that fit into the drum so I could pull the drum off. I beat it with a rubber mallet first. Came off pretty easy after that. then I had to release the brake by turning the wheel that looks like a gear above the shoe. I think its called the brake adjuster. In my case it cooked my drum and cracked my shoe pad. Not too difficult to fix though and I'm a noob.
