Random Persona: Min Ah of the Doll Master

| Tuesday, January 17, 2012 | |


She's as innocent as she is a killer. That's Min-ah -- a  shy, mysterious and beautiful young girl who lurks around the doll museum for the sole purpose of watching over her owner, Hae-mi.

Truth be told, Min-ah is a humanized soul of a doll whom Hae-Mi loved with all her heart back when she was young.

What drew me to this character was the fact that she'd do anything for the sake of her owner's safety. It made me think about Toy Story 3... though Toy Story and it's colorful roster of characters isn't what I'm trying to imply here. This character is an epitome of loyalty in its best and worst form. For one thing, she's gullible -- which means she's willing to do what's wrong for the sake of what she thinks is right. For another -- she's a killer, which is bad in all the good ways.

Min-Ah also has a very innocent face, compared to most other killers. The last time I encountered a character like her was in The Orphan. She could easily switch from angelic little doll to vengeful demonic puppet.

Min-Ah may not thoroughly be a monster, as opposed to the characters who bear close similarities to her, but she still has her own murderous intents.
