After graduating from college in Seoul, South Korea, Minka came to the United States in 1993 through participation in a tennis doubles event in the Asian Olympics in Chicago from which she and her partner won first place. Without success of her goal in acquiring a tennis teaching license due to the language barrier, she sent a portfolio of images of herself to British adult glamour director/photographer John Graham who was working with Score magazine at the time. Graham then referred her to Universal Entertainment, an adult talent agency.

In 1995, Minka began appearing in a number of adult themed men's magazines featuring big-busted women, such as Hustler's Busty Beauties, Score, and Gent. She appeared in her first adult video, Duke of Knockers, soon after. At the same time, Minka began appearing on the strip club circuit as a "booby dancer". She has had at least four breast augementation surgeries, through which she attained her present bust size of 54KKK.

Minka has made cameo appearances on NBC-TV's Late Night with Conan O' Brien (1999), The Jerry Springer Show (1996), and Spike TV's MANswers (2007). She made an appearance in a spoof as wrestler/manager "Satin" on Ted Turner's World Championship Wrestling (WCW) program in 1999. In 2009 she along with her team won the USTA National Championship in female amateur 4.5 tennis doubles held in Las Vegas.
