> **Cho Minah** (조민아) was a South Korean Female Artist. She  started in group Jewelry.  She retired in 2006.

Before joining Jewelry she was a child actress under her birth name Cho Jinju, which she would eventually officially change to Cho Minah. 

After Jewelry she received multiple certifications including pastry, realtor, and tarot among others, which she would eventually use.

She opened a Bakery called "Space Goddess Cho Minah Atelier" (machine translation), but it would go on to have a lengthy history of controversies surrounding hygeine, over-pricing, poor quality, price gouging, and tax evasion among others. While she sued several malicious commenters, the reputation of the Bakery kept declining until she eventually closed permanently in 2018 while going through health issues (in 2019 she claimed to suffer Raynaud's Syndrome)

In 2020 she publicly used SNS to look for a husband, which once again attracted criticism.

She married a fitness center director with whom she had a son. The marriage was short lived as she complained of domestic violence and that he had drinking problems, leading to a divorce in 2022. Her ex-husband would go and sue her for defamation which would cost her an attempt to return to the public working on Channel S's Attack on Grandma variety show.
