Move over, American scream queens – there’s a new nightmare in town, and she’s serving Korean horror realness. Go Min-si, the 29-year-old actress taking streaming by storm, is redefining the female villain in Netflix’s latest shock-fest “Somebody.”
MethodActing #BloodySurprise
Forget the sweet intern from “Jinny’s Kitchen” – Go’s new role has her drenched in blood and giggling through murder scenes like it’s a casual Tuesday. International viewers are shook, calling her “a rare Korean female antagonist” in the crime thriller genre.
VersatileQueen #GenreDefying
This chameleon of an actress keeps everyone guessing. One minute she’s your heartbreaking first love in a historical drama, the next she’s cussing up a storm as a warrior witch. Director Lee Eung-bok praises her ability to “digest any line in her own unique way.”

For “Somebody,” Go took method acting to the extreme, dropping to a gaunt 43kg (95 lbs) to channel her character’s “grotesque yet animalistic vibe.” Talk about commitment to the craft!
HumbleBeginnings #CustomerServiceSkills
But don’t let the murderess act fool you. This small-town girl worked as a wedding planner and meat shop employee before hitting it big. Those customer service skills apparently translate – producer Na Young-seok calls her “surprisingly well-suited to organizational culture” for a celeb.
KimHyeSooApproved #RisingStarStatus
With acting legend Kim Hye-soo declaring, “Min-si, your time has come,” it looks like Go Min-si’s reign of terror (on-screen, of course) is just beginning. Hollywood, watch your back – Korea’s new scream queen is coming for your crown.
