Officially graduated!

On Feb 15, 2013, Minyoung officially received her diploma in Theater Arts major in Drama and Films from Dongguk University. It took her 9 years to complete the course due to her debut to entertainment industry in 2006. Since she started her career, Minyoung hardly had time for studies as she jumped from one project to another. It was only in 2012 when she finally decided to take a break and return back to school. During this period, Minyoung stayed away from public eye, only updating her fans with tweets or entry in her weibo account every now and then.

Minyoung also received a special recognition for her participation in promoting her school. She was given a Merit Award along with 4 other students who also made other contributions to school good image

Congratulations Minyoung! We are very proud of you.

"You wanted me to take this photo right? Minyoung graduation! Thanks for your congratulations."


Looking happy to be one of the awardees
Very beautiful smile

I think she's also very proud of herself :-)


The guy standing next to her must be very lucky



She made a wrong turn to exit the stage and just laughed herself off


What are you looking at behind you?






This was taken when she got out of the van and was met by a lot of reporters.

I think all those present in this photo will keep this forever. "Park Min Young is my alumni yay!"

Park Min Young Personal Data

Park Min Young's entrance to entertainment industry was surely easy. Unlike many actors/actresses who needed to go thru a series of auditions or had to join many talent search just to be noticed, Park Min Young was discovered when SidusHQ (her first talent agency) found her profile while browsing Cyworld mini-hompies.  She first appeared in TV commercial for SK Telecom in 2005 and was immediately followed by more TV ads. Her elegant and fresh look caught the attention of Korean Air and made her the airline model for 6 months. Things were going fast for this aspiring actress and she immediately landed a role for TV sitcom Unstoppable High Kick in 2006. It wasn't a major role but enough to give her the necessary exposure in acting. Her growing popularity and the Newcomer Award she received for her first project gave her an edge to snatch a leading role for her next TV drama. Since then, Park Min Young rise to stardom became unstoppable. Just one year after she debuted on screen, she immediately taking female-lead roles one after the other and became endorser of many consumer products. 



Though her debut was easy, her journey to stardom wasn't. Park Min Young is known to have many haters. Many criticized her acting. She received a lot of negative feedback from online community when she admitted she had a double eyelid and nose surgeries. When the news about her dating with co-star actor came out, she was plagued by malicious messages on her SNS accounts. But despite all these, Park Min Young remained optimistic and fought for her place in stardom. She continued to show her bright and beautiful smile in front of camera. In one interview, she admitted that, just like anyone else, she is also affected by negative criticism. But instead of being discouraged she motivates herself to work harder to improve her craft. She takes every role she played very seriously and often received positive remarks from directors  and actors/actresses she worked with. She also maintains a good relationship with filming crew and staff and she's often complimented for having a good working attitude.    


Park Min Young may still have a lot of haters, but the number of her fans grew tremendously. She is not only popular in Korea but also in most Asian countries. She has a good number of followers from US and some European countries. Recently, she started endorsing products for Chinese market, a proof of her popularity in China. She may still have a long road to walk on but she's definitely on the right track.  


Due to tight schedule, Park Min Young had to stop attending school. She only managed to return to complete her remaining subjects in 2012. On Feb 15, 2013, Park Min Young officially graduated from Dongguk University major in Drama and Film.  She received a Merit Award due to her contribution in promoting the school's good image. What was her contribution? In 2011, Dongguk University had asked Park Min Young to appear in school promotional pamphlets. Despite hectic schedule (she's just completed filming her first movie and about to start a new TV drama), she gladly accepted it. There was an overwhelming response from students taking entrance exam that the school had to order printing of additional pamphlets. School officials said that Park Min Young changed the school stiff image into a cool and likable school. Other than Park Min Young, the school has many other top celebrities as current students and graduates.


Park Min Young likes travelling. Most of her travel photos were posted on her Cyworld and Twitter accounts. While taking a most deserved break in 2012, she traveled to many places in Europe.




She also loves to cook and a confessed coffee lover. She likes to bake cakes and other pastries that go well with coffee. She often invites her friends to her house that they labelled her house Minyoung Coffee Shop.
