Bae Suzy

In March 2015, Bae’s relationship with a fellow South Korean actor Lee Min-ho was confirmed.

Suzy is too fond of cars and currently drives a BMW Mini cooper, which she purchased as a gift to herself for her 20th birthday. She also gifted a car to her father and has opened a cafe for her mother.

After her appearance in her debut film ‘Architecture 101’, Bae was nicknamed ‘Korea’s First Love’, for her cute and adorable looks.

Bae Suzy was born in Buk district of Gwangju, South Korea on 10th October 1994 to Bae Wan-young and Jeong Hyun-sook. She grew up among her parents and two siblings, an elder sister and a younger brother.

She fell in love with music quite early on in her life and listened to everything, from classical Korean music to western tunes. She wanted to make a name in the entertainment business.

Her parents supported their daughter’s dreams and when she told them that she didn’t want a regular career and wanted to get enrolled in the School of Performing Arts Seoul, they fully supported her. Bae worked hard to hone her skills as an actor and a stage performer.

Her gorgeous looks helped her bagging modelling assignments early and at the age of 15, she was already modelling for different brands, and when she graduated, it was time to start with her biggest passion, music.

Although talented, she was clueless about the right way to start in the industry and she found herself auditioning for a major Korean talent hunt show titled ‘Mnet Superstar K’ in 2009 and she was selected to compete among the contestants from all over the country. But she couldn’t make it far in the show and got eliminated in the early rounds.

The group ‘miss A’ started their musical journey in China, and they were signed up by Samsung Electronics as the group recorded and performed the promotional song for the company titled ‘Love Again’.

The group made their official debut with a single titled ‘Bad Girl Good Girl’, which was a hit among the Korean youth and ‘miss A’ went on promoting the song across the country and towards the end of the year 2010, came another one of their singles titled ‘Breathe’.

In the middle of 2011, the group came up with their very first album titled ‘Class A’, which was a major commercial and critical success and the group embarked on a nationwide concert to promote their album. For a brief period of time in the same year, the group went on an international tour, including China and came back to Korea with their next venture, a studio album titled ‘Touch’ in early 2012.

Apart from music, Bae kept herself busy with other activities as well. She was selected to host many award ceremonies and music shows such as ‘Show! Music Core’, ‘M! Countdown’, ‘Seoul Music Awards’ and the ‘Golden Disk Awards’. She was getting popular and acting offers had already started raining down on her.

In January 2012, Bae made her acting debut with ‘Dream High’, which happened to be a high school drama for SBS. She was then also credited with creating the official OST of the show, titled ‘Winter Child’. The drama became highly popular in Korea and internationally as well, the fan base of the show kept building and at the KBS Drama awards, Suzy won two awards for her performance.
