Lee Min Jung is the new CF Queen

Actress Lee Min Jung, who is currently starring in the SBS drama, "Smile, You" (?? ???), has been tapped to be the new face of Jinro Soju. Lee Min Jung will be replacing Ha Ji Won, who is currently the model for "Chamisul," a soju brand of Jinro. In Korea, only the most sought after talents are asked to be part of the advertisement for soju brands, and in the past Shin Min Ah and Lee Hyori have modeled for Jinro. Lee Min Jung's bright and bubbly personality has already attracted modeling / endorsement contracts from other brands, including SK Telecom, Mind Brige, Happy Point, and Tommy Hilfiger. A spokesperon for Lee Min Jung's management company stated: "Excluding Jinro, three other companies have asked Lee Min Jung to be the spokesperson for their products. It seems like all three negotiations will go well." In Korea, stars make a big chunk of their income on being spokesperson for brands. It appears that Lee Min Jung will be starting the new year with a nice addition to her bank account.
