Hyun-min Han (Nigerian-Korean)

This Nigerian-Korean model has battled racism and now one of the most influential teens in South Korea. Born to a Nigerian father and Korean mother, Han has mastered the craft to be a model.

Discovered via Instagram by a modelling agency at age 15, he was signed immediately after a brief meeting at a coffee shop in Seoul.

Han credits his exemplary display of maturity and his parent’s guidance as his main tools for fighting racism.

At height 6’2”, he walked for Heich Es Heich in 2016 and has been thriving since then.
