In the history of Korean entertainment, there have been many actors who have attracted attention with their beauty and talent, but quickly faded away due to scandals or personal choices. Jang Mi In Ae, a beauty once known for her daring roles in over-18 movies and hit TV projects, is a story full of ups and downs. From the glory of the 2000s to shocking scandals and mysterious disappearance, her journey has made the audience curious about her current life.

Jang Mi In Ae, born on May 28, 1984 in Jeju, South Korea, entered the entertainment industry with outstanding physical advantages: 172 cm tall, 48 kg in weight and a sharp face. She debuted in 2004 through the MV Angel Song of the group Daylight, paving the way for her acting career. With her sex.y beauty and natural charisma, Jang quickly attracted producers.

She began her career with supporting roles in the sitcoms Nonstop 5 (2004–2005), Super Rookie (2005), and Rainbow Romance (2005–2006), demonstrating her versatility from comedic to emotional roles. In 2006, she appeared in the film Almost Love, a romantic comedy with Kwon Sang Woo and Kim Ha Neul, although she only played a small role. That same year, her role as Jang Jin in the drama Soulmate brought her to attention thanks to her natural chemistry, which earned her acclaim from the audience. She continued to appear in Blissful Woman (2007), a family drama, but again in a supporting role.

Jang Mi In Ae's career peaked with 90 Minutes (2012), a steamy melodrama in which she played Gang Hae Ri, a mysterious woman who manipulates the main character. The role cemented her sex.y image but also stereotyped her.

In the film, the actress performed many bold scenes, showin.g of.f her body, causing her image to be closely associated with the 18+ element. Jang Mi In Ae then had difficulty being cast in positive roles, television or commercial.

It is reported that Jang was rejected by about 200 film crews when casting because the directors thought her ho.t appearance was not suitable for positive roles. She once shared her disappointment at being judged solely on her appearance, even though her acting was not inferior.

At the height of her popularity, Jang Mi In Ae was involved in a shocking scanda.l in 2013, involving the abus.e of propofol - an anesthetic banned in Korea since 2011. According to the Korea Herald, she was prosecuted for illegally using propofol 410 times in 6 years, equivalent to 5.6 times per month, allegedly for weight loss. In court, Jang claimed that she did not know propofol was a banned substance and only used it as prescribed by her doctor. However, the Seoul Central District Court sentenced her to 8 months in prison, suspended for 2 years. Although she did not serve any jail time, the scanda.l destroyed her image, causing her to lose contracts and turn her back on the public.

Not stopping there, in 2020, Jang also caused controversy when she condemned the South Korean government's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic on social media, calling the 1 million won support for a family of four "worthless". The post received harsh reactions, with many people bringing up the propofol scanda.l to condemn her. She has also been caught up in unverified rumors about mental disorders or romantic relationships. In the TV series I Miss You (2012), she was condemned by some fans of Park Yoo Chun for her sex.y image, but MBC defended her, asserting that her role was appropriate.

After the storms, Jang Mi In Ae chose to live a private life. In 2022, she announced her pregnancy and gave birth to a son on October 13, 2022, after registering her marriage with a businessman. The official wedding took place on April 29, 2023 at the Shilla Hotel, Seoul. Her small supporting role in My Lawyer, Mr. Jo 2 (2019) was her last appearance on screen. Currently, at the ag.e of 40, Jang seems to have completely withdrawn, focusing on being a mother and building a family. Her social media accounts are less active, with no signs of returning to acting.
