Lee Min Young, known professionally as Lee Min, was an American musical actress, singer, and member of AS ONE (애즈원). She was born in South Korea, but her family moved to the United States when she was 3 months old, where she grew up.

She returned in 1999 and made her debut as part of the musical duo AS ONE alongside Chae Da Hee (known as Crystal Chae). They released their first album, "Day by Day", and the song "Only You Wouldn't Know" became a quick hit.

She married a South Korean businessman in 2013 and continued to promote for a while longer as the duo released 4 more albums before announcing an indefinite hiatus in 2017. They briefly reunited in 2019 for an episode of "Two Yoo Project Sugar Man Season 3" and in 2025 for an episode of "The Seasons Season 7: Park Bo Gum's Cantabile".

She remained in South Korea but barely appears on TV as she is focused on her family and business. The duo is represented by Brand New Music (브랜뉴뮤직) and occasionally performs in the United States, as Crystal lives in California.

On August 5, 2025, police reported her death at the age of 46 after she was found unconscious at her home. The cause is being investigated.
