Information

Kim Minju is a member of KPOP-JPOP girl group IZONE which was formed through survival show Produce 48 and debuted on October 29, 2018. She is signed under the agency Urban Works Entertainment and was originally street cast while she was heading home after doing volunteer work to be an actress. She originally didn't plan on becoming a celebrity and was leaning towards becoming a civil servant. She also dreamed of becoming a flight attendant when she was younger.

Minju is known for her visuals as she is one of the main visuals of her team. However, she has more talents one can actually know about.

She can play multiple instruments including the guitar and piano. She has showcased her talents in playing these instruments live during her team's showcases and concerts.

Minju is also an amazing dancer. She has proven time and time again her talent when it comes to dancing. She is one of the members that rarely have resting time in their choreographies. While other members would have 5-10 seconds of breathing time, Minju is one of the members that have 1-2 seconds allotted to catch her breath.

She has one of the most versatile voices. Minju is originally part of the lower vocal range members. However, when her team needs a different sound, she is one of their go-to members. If IZONE needs a low tone, Minju is their designated vocal. If they need a fuller and bubblier vocal color, Minju's vocals are used. If they need a rapper, Minju is the one they get.

Minju is a sentimental lyricist. She is the brain behind the lyrics of her team's ballads such as 'Really Like You' and 'You & I.' Minju is definitely one of the members who cry easily, maybe because of her emotional self, that is how Minju can release such lyrics that touch the hearts of many WIZONEs.

She is an amazing actress. Maybe it is due to the fact that Minju was originally training to be an actress, but she is undeniably an amazing actress. Cine-Rewind has recognized her as the 2020 Special New Actor for her debut film 'The Fault is not Yours.'

Minju is currently a fixed host. She has been a fixed MC for MBC's 'Show! Music Core' since June 13, 2021. She has continuously improved her hosting and is looking more and more natural on live TV.

One thing to note is that everything Minju can do now is the result of her hard work. Her members have revealed she is the most hard-working member out of all 12 of them to the point the older members become worried about her.

She also has the purest soul ever. Minju supports her members the most, making sure to promote their solo or unit projects first before anybody else. She is, in general, a very talented person but she also might be the nicest one out there.
