A celebrity agency, Mediacorp’s arts management department, confirmed her departure in a statement, stating that the last day with them would be June 30th.

Chin, who won the 10th most popular female artist award at the Star Awards in April, told the Chinese evening daily Sim Min Daily News that it took about four months to make the decision.
The actress, whose last project with Mediacorp is the next drama “When Duty Calls 2,” added that the station offered her a fascinating salary increase when discussing her contract renewal.
The offer she admitted was fascinating.
“I hesitated because I was a human being, but I decided to stick to my original intentions and seek a new direction in my life.”
Chin, who recently appeared on television shows such as Leave No Soul Behind (2021-2022) and A Jungle Survivor (2020), was the female champion of the 2003 Star Search Talent Contest.
She switched to part-time acting in 2010 to study business administration at the National University of Singapore and returned to full-time acting in 2013.
According to Shin Min-a, her decision to leave Mediacorp was fully endorsed by her boyfriend, actor Jeffrey Shoe.
When asked if he would get married this year, Chin laughed and said, “There is nothing impossible.”
