Shin Eun-kyung Biography
Shin Eun-kyung is one of the most popular and richest Actor who was born on February 15, 1973 in BUnited Statesn, South Korea. On 22 September 2003 Shin got married to Kim Jung-soo who was the director of her agency for talent Good Player Entertainment. In the next year she gave birth to one son, who later was identified with hydrocephalus. On August 24, 2007, Shin filed for divorce when she realized that Kim had utilized her private seal without permission to steal $400,000 (US$424,800 ) to finance his company following the merging together with Fantom Entertainment and the box film’s failure at the box office of several films he’d made. On November 24, Shin sued Kim for fraud in private documents. In a different case she was sued by KM Culture, the company which Kim was able to obtain the loan amounting to $29 millions (US$218,000 ). The 28th of December, 2008 the court decided that Shin was not responsible for the debts of her ex-husband, noting that even though Shin’s signature is included on the loan contract, Shin had not seen any of the loaned funds and was not the one who authorized her seal’s use and therefore was not responsible to pay the loan.
She again landed in the entertainment headlines in 2011 when she underwent bimaxillary osteotomy surgery (or jaw realignment surgery), reportedly because she felt making her strong jawline “slimmer and more rounded” would give her a “younger, softer, more feminine” look, which would result in more acting roles. Shin later spoke candidly that she regretted having undergone the procedure for pure cosmetic purposes, saying the public should be better informed about the pain and danger associated with the invasive surgery. In 2012, she sued an oriental medicine clinic for violating her portrait rights and privacy after it posted false ads on the internet without her permission, featuring her photo and treatment process; she had gone to the clinic to decrease the swelling of her face, a side effect of her jaw reconstruction surgery, but the clinic’s treatments proved ineffective. The court ruled in Shin’s favor and awarded her damages amounting to ₩35 million.
Shin has been a professor at Seoul Hoseo Art College’s Department of Performing Arts since 2011.
The year 2002 was the time Shin was in the spotlight for her first well-known role as an imposing female boss in the gang film My Wife Is a Gangster. The film attracted more than 5 million viewers and was a massive success across Asia. Shin also appeared on the second film in the series, My Wife Is a Gangster 2 which was released in 2003, however, it failed at the box opening in 2003. Other roles Shin was in at this time included as a detective as a detective in This Is Law (also known as Out of Justice), as a professional matchmaker in romance A Perfect Match, and as an officer of the navy in the movie that dominated the box office Blue.
As of 1999, the actress was a part-time actress in two movies, among them the Korean-Japanese co-produced film The Ring Virus, based on the novel written by Koji Suzuki. Her performance in the film was a catalyst for her to be given a minor role in the Japanese film called Uzumaki (also called Spiral). At the time, Shin was also working as an MC on an upcoming game show on television.
Shin went on a short hiatus after she married and had a baby, and returned to acting in 2005, starring in films such as Bystanders and Mr. Housewife, and television series such as Bad Couple, Mom’s Dead Upset, White Lie, Still You, and The Scandal. She gained praise for her impassioned portrayals of ruthless and ambitious women in the 2010 melodrama Flames of Desire and the 2014 revenge thriller The Plan.
