Alan Sun Kim (born April 23, 2012) is an American child actor. At the age of 7 years old, he stole hearts and earned rave reviews for his portrayal of 'David Yi,' a first generation American-Korean living in rural Arkansas with a heart condition, in Lee Isaac Chung's American epic, 'Minari.' Now 8, Alan won the 2021 Critics' Choice Award for 'Best Young Actor/Actress,' and he was nominated for a BAFTA in the category of 'Best Supporting Actor in a Film.' 'Minari' won both the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival. Alan is in the 3rd grade, and his favorite subject is Math.
