BIOGRAPHY
Kim Min-jung trained at SM Entertainment for several years before debuting as aespa's lead vocalist in 2020. Her voice is aespa's sonic anchor — a powerful, crystalline instrument capable of driving the group's biggest stadium moments. She is considered one of the strongest live vocalists in the fourth generation of K-pop, a distinction that became more visible as aespa moved into arena-scale touring.
Drawing and fan art (she occasionally shares sketches of animated characters), badminton, cooking Korean home food, and a fondness for classic animated films.
