It's clear Minju has always preferred acting before music. That's why I was kinda frustrated when she made it over people who were clearly more passionate and talented. But, I respect her decision and hope her fandom does too.

Smart move. You can earn more doing solo work and this way she has the chance to make a name for herself. She's already dubbed as "MBC's daughter" here in Korea so she's barely scratched the surface. Loads of potential with her going this path.
