About Bae Doo Na
Bae Doo Na was born on October 11, 1979. She was the middle child in the family; she was raised in Seoul, in South Korea. While growing up, Bae Doo Na was adamant in following her mother, Kim Hwa Young, a very talented and renowned stage actress in her own right, around several theaters and rehearsal halls. As a young child she was helping her mother in memorizing her lines of dialogue. As incredible as it may seem, Bae did not feel impelled to be an actress because of this, but it certainly marked a beginning to what she would end up doing in the future.
