Biography
Shin Min-A, born April 5th, 1984 with birth name Yang Min-A (양민아), is a popular South Korean actress & model. Her family consists of a father, mother, older sister & brother. In middle school, Min-A took a picture with her friends on a school picnic and sent the photo to teen magazine KiKi ("키키"). From that picture she was chosen as a model for the magazine. Afterwards she would first appear in commercials and music videos. In 2001, Min-A made her acting debut in the movie "Volcano High" and would appear again two years later in "Madeleine". Her breakout performance would occur in the 2005 gangster film "A Bittersweet Life". Her character, Hee-soo, displayed a mixture of purity and maturity that captivated South Korean audiences.

More recently in 2009, Shin Min-A participated in the project "Miracle Blue," which is a collaboration between herself, the Korean alternative band Loveholic and fashion design company Calvin Klein.

Shin Min Ah *_*
I can die for her, I'd probably melt if she was just standing in front of me lol. More seriously : her natural attractiveness obviously makes it easy to like her but she does have raw talent for acting, though perhaps not always well exploited. She seems to choose her roles carefully but in her two latest dramas, My girlfriend is a Gumiho and Arang and the Magistrate, she showed some nice variances in emotion and her acting did the talking. She has the knack of having great chemistry with whoever is the male lead and that's not easy to do.

Sure, she's pretty, but her acting has a long way to go before it's on the level of Kim Sun-A, Choi Kang-Hee, Gong Hyo-Jin, or Han Ji-Min. She just doesn't seem to have what it takes to show true subtlety of emotion and deliver a nuanced performance. I think she needs someone in her life to be tough on her performances and expect more out of her, because she does have the potential to be so much better at her craft. It's just a matter of someone drawing that out of her. Maybe once that happens, she'll be able to land some roles that require more than a pretty face and a stunt team.

I was already "over the moon" for this actress when I first saw her in 'Punch' way back when. A few movies later, she enchants us all as 'Gu Mi-ho' and now as 'Arang'. "Otherwordly" would be a great discription for the way that Shin Mi-nah's warmth, beauty, cuteness, and charm immediately captivates all who become bewitched by her special spell. Those folks at that teen magazine who first looked her middle school picture must have been affected much in the same way. Lucky us! :)
