As Minka fans know, Minka is a life-long dog fancier and usually has a small army of seven little dogs at home who obey her every command in Korean. On Boob Cruise 2000, she was doing a photo shoot when a local pup wandered over to the SCORE camp on the beach . Minka naturally wanted to hug it so the photographer captured the moment. I started feature dancing in 1995 and I stopped around 2004, Minka said. I stopped because Ihave seven dogs and I had to stay home and take care of them. And also because dancing puts a lot of pressure on the body.
