Career

No Min-woo was born in Japan while his mother, then 20 years old, was aspiring to become an enka singer there.[1]

He made his debut as the drummer (with the stage name Rose) in the rock band TRAX in 2004.[2] Prior to debut, No Min-woo appeared in "2002 Survival Audition HeeJun vs. KangTa Battle of the Century" with bandmates Typhoon and Attack, as well as Xiah Junsu , Super Junior's Sungmin and Eunhyuk. No Minwoo left TRAX in 2006, and briefly became a guitarist for The Romantist before it disbanded. In 2009 he returned to the music scene as the leader of the project group 24/7, with Lee Jang-woo and Hyun Woo. They released the single 24 Hours a Day, 7 Days a Week.

No began pursuing an acting career in 2008, and gained notice with his supporting roles in the 2010 TV series Pasta and My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox. He landed his first leading role in the four-episode drama special Rock Rock Rock, a biographical film about the life of Boohwal lead guitarist Kim Tae-won.[3] Then for his role as a cancer patient in 2011's Midas, No lost 9.5 kilograms (21 pounds).[4] His long-delayed drama Full House Take 2 (a loose sequel to the 2004 hit) secured air dates on Japan's TBS and Korean cable channel SBS Plus in 2012.[5][6] No was cast as the male lead in the Chinese TV series Love Expiration Date, for which he will also serve as OST music director, composing and writing songs for the soundtrack.[7][8][9]

In 2012 his contract with Core Contents Media came to an end, and he established his own management company, MJ Dreamsys.[10]

In 2013, on July 1, No released his MV, ROCKSTAR, under his newly opened YouTube channel, officialminewTV.[11]

In 2014, No appeared in a minor role in Roaring Currents (released July 30, 2014), which became the highest-grossing film of all time in South Korea. Later in 2014, No played one of the main characters in The Greatest Marriage. While No was filming for the drama during the summer of 2014, his Chinese fan club gifted the staff and cast with a food truck.[12]

No stars in MBC Dramanet's My Unfortunate Boyfriend, which premiered on April 10, 2015.[13]

In April 2015, No filed a lawsuit against his former agency, S.M. Entertainment, as well as reported the agency to the South Korea Fair Trade Commission. Documents from the lawsuit reveal that No originally signed a 17-year exclusive contract with S.M. Entertainment. No is seeking 100 million KRW for damages resulting from the agency's interference in his career.[14]
