Seo Su Min, Rising Korean Actress, Keeps Part‑Time Takoyaki Job

Seo Su Min, a 19‑year‑old actress born in 2007, gained viral fame in South Korea after starring as the daughter of spy Kim in the 2026 blockbuster drama "Agent Kim Reactivated". The series attracted a global audience and sparked intense discussion on social media.

Despite the sudden popularity, Seo disclosed on her YouTube channel that she continues to work part‑time at a local takoyaki shop. She said she never told her employer she was an actress, and the shop’s owner was shocked when he learned she had appeared in the hit series. Seo explained that she prefers to stay active and feel useful rather than remain idle after filming, adding that she is also preparing for university entrance exams and aims to improve her acting skills.

She also shared her close bond with co‑star So Ji Sub, referring to him affectionately as a father figure during the production, which mirrors their on‑screen relationship.
