"Shin Mina is a regular kind of girl who pops out of nowhere. She is a 2002 Ms. World Cup Korea who participated in World Cup Korean Soccer games for cheering up the KOrean soccer team. Her age is 25. Height 5'5". And she's ultra super sexy HOT gorgeous lady. She evidentally became a singer right away. Her popularity gain really fast by her beauty and personality. Her 1st album, the main title PICK UP THE PHONE is a jazzy & dance music. It sounds pretty good if you put some remix in it. To tell you the truth, almost everybody is crazy about this girl. Kind of like Hyo Ri from FIN.K.L but alittle bit better. She got the body, abs, bossoms, pretty face. Mostly not all good looking girls can sing. But Shin Mina, should give a big effort for her first singing career. If your interested in this girl, then you should get this album, while it last. Because I think this CD will sell out quickly. So i pre-order this item NOW! I guarantee it will sold out the first day comes out! The CD cover looks ultra awesome. Korea has never done this for any other singers. This CD will bring the audience or buyers attention quickly and wanted to buy this album. I dont know when this CD comes out. But for sure, it's coming out either this week or next week or end of November! Buy it. It'a must! THUMBS UP!"

Shin Mina profile

South Korea's World Cup babe has released her first album. While she was cheering up the South Korean national team of Guus Hiddink, the Dutch trainer. Shin Mina was spotted by a few of the photographers during the 2002 soccer World Cup. Little did she know that o­nly a few months after the World Cup she would become a big hit in South Korea. She's good looking, fine, cute and pretty. What about her song talent, writing skills and feeling for rhythm? Let's find out in this review...
South Korea became 4th during the Soccer World Cup of 2002, a splendid achievement for an Asian country. During the WC there were a few photographers with good zoom lenses took a lot of shots of this Korean beauty, and here her national fame started. Shin Mina is just a regular Girl who became popular out of nowhere. She is 25 years old, 1,67 meters long (5,5) and pretty sexy.

After her popularity rose in South Korea, it was evidently that she became a singer right away. Shin Mina already was connected to the music industry, she has been a backdancer for some Korean artist called "Park Ji Yoon". J Company, her Korean entertainment company signed Mina. And after some delay with her album it was released in December.

Lets' talk about the album: The "Intro" and "Middletro" are definitely the best tracks o­n the album, it's not because she's not singing o­n this track, but they're catchy and sound trendy with a bit of the 2step/garage feeling. The main title "Answer the Phone" is a typical Korean Dance/Jazz song, with a dance beat and kind of awkward vocals, this song is her first single released with a music video. The music video is really professionally done by J Company. The choreography in the video is very upspeed but still right and cool.

My favourite song o­n this album is definitely "Accident", a ballad with the right speed and samples. The thing that bothers me here is Mina's pronounciation of the letter S, maybe it's because of the Korean language or words. Don't know about that. The other songs are all upbeat dance songs, with Shin Mina's unique voice, but not really worth it to buy the CD.

01 - Intro
02 - Something Happened
03 - Answer the Phone
04 - Dreams Come True
05 - All the Days of the Week
