Actress Shin Min-a reflected on her journey as an actress to mark her 25th anniversary of debut.

The Actors House event for the 31st Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) was held on the 10th at the Shinsegae Department Store Culture Hall in Haeundae-gu, Busan. Actress Shin Min-a attended the event and looked back on her time as an actress to celebrate her 25th anniversary of debut.

On that day, Shin Min-a said, "It has been a long time since I last visited after attending the Busan International Film Festival with 'My Love, My Bride.' I came to Busan because I was invited for the series 'Remarried Empress,' and I am also participating in the Actors House." She added, "I am so happy that many people are here. I would like to have a sincere conversation."

Shin Min-a, who is celebrating her 25th anniversary of debut this year, said, "From then until now, I have simply kept running hard. Looking back, I realized how much time has passed." She continued, "However, thanks to the continuous support and love from many people, I have been able to keep working. I think it is truly a happy thing."

Regarding her recent activities, she shared, "I am currently filming the MBC drama 'Su-Mok-Geum,' which will also be broadcast simultaneously on Disney+. I am also fully focused on promoting 'Remarried Empress.'"

Shin Min-a also recalled the time of her debut. She said, "I was very young at the time. High-teen magazines were all the rage back then, and the models who were active were peers slightly older than me." She added, "In fact, I think I also had a desire to escape from my repetitive daily life. I also wanted to grow up quickly."

She continued, "When I started working, I felt proud of collaborating with adults, and that process was fun." She added, "I would like to tell myself that I am grateful for not forgetting the passion and mindset I had back then and making it this far."

Although 25 years have passed, her passion for acting remains unchanged. Shin Min-a emphasized, "I still want to keep working on projects and keep running. I believe being an actress is my destiny, and I try to accept stress quickly and recover from it."
