Her aunt explained in the video that she does not use social media and had never been publicly exposed online. However, after her daughter became Miss Korea and later won the Miss Earth international pageant, she began being recognized unexpectedly.

Following the broadcast of Single’s Inferno 5, the video resurfaced, with viewers revisiting the channel and leaving comments such as, “How have you been?” and “Choi Mina Sue is so beautiful.”

Choi Mina Sue first made waves on the show when she appeared in a striking yellow dress. The look surprised many when it was revealed that the dress came from an affordable SPA brand priced at around ₩50,000 KRW (about $34.00 USD). However, the contrast came from her accessories.

The necklace she paired with the dress was identified as a high-end jewelry piece worth approximately ₩20.0 million KRW (about $13,600 USD). She later wore diamond bracelets reportedly priced at ₩57.0 million KRW (about $38,700 USD) and ₩61.0 million KRW (about $41,500 USD). Online estimates suggest that the total value of the jewelry she wore during the show may reach nearly ₩330 million KRW (about $224,000 USD).

The resurfaced footage, combined with her luxury styling, has led netizens to speculate about her extremely affluent family background.

Meanwhile, CocoChoi — the luxury and shopping review channel that once had around 86,000 subscribers — has not uploaded new content since it was revealed that the channel’s operator passed away two years ago after battling cancer.

As discussions continue, viewers are expressing fascination over Choi Mina Sue’s upbringing, with many noting that her poised presence on the show now makes even more sense in light of her family’s revealed lifestyle.
