On January 22, Shin Min-ah reposted a promotional upload from his agency, AM Entertainment, on Instagram. The post marked her first SNS activity since her wedding last December.
AM Entertainment unveiled stills from The Remarried Empress, writing, “This is what imperial elegance looks like. Shin Min-ah as ‘Navier’ will present a romantic fantasy.” The agency added: “Underneath his elegance lies Navier’s strong charisma. Disney+’s The Empress Remarried, coming soon, please look forward to it.”
In particular, Shin Min-ah emerged as a standout in her role as Empress Navier Ellie Trovi. Viewers praised her calm, dignified aura and regal presence, noting that she embodies the character’s nobility with remarkable restraint and grace. Some fans have even commented that Shin Min-ah’s portrayal of Navier appears more handsome and charismatic than the original web novel depiction, further raising expectations for the live-action adaptation.
The Empress Remarried is a large-scale romantic fantasy series based on the best-selling web novel of the same name. The story follows Navier, the flawless empress of the Eastern Empire, who is informed of her divorce by Emperor Sovieshu after falling in love with the runaway slave Rashta. Instead of resisting, Navier agrees to a divorce on one condition, that she be allowed to remarry Prince Heinrey of the Western Kingdom, setting the stage for an epic romance and political fantasy.
Shin Min-ah takes on the central role of Navier, a character beloved for her elegance, intelligence and emotional strength, qualities that many believe the actress captures perfectly.
Meanwhile, Shin Min-ah married actor Kim Woo-bin in December after a ten-year public relationship. The couple reportedly went to Spain for their honeymoon.
