SUA (Korean name 나수아) is a photorealistic 3D virtual human from Seoul, developed by the Korean 3D virtual-human company Onmind, a subsidiary of game maker Neptune.

Built on the Unity engine, she can interact with people in real time and broadcast live, and her voice for ads is generated with AI speech synthesis. She presents as an ordinary Gen Z teenager who likes dance challenges, travel and trying new things. Her Instagram bio reads 'Your virtual friend living in Seoul. Do what I want.' Brand work includes Unity Korea's endorsement model, SK Telecom's A. tv campaign with IVE's Jang Won-young (announced 26 Sep 2022), a three-year billboard deal with Thai ad firm DDD (14 Oct 2022) and a Thai launch via Cheil Thailand (10 Sep 2022).

Is SUA AI?
Yes. SUA (나수아) is a 3D computer-generated virtual human made by the Seoul studio Onmind, a Neptune subsidiary; she is not a real person, and no named human performs her accounts.
Every source that describes her agrees she is a character built by Onmind, not a person. Onmind's own announcement, carried by the Asia News Network, calls her an AI virtual human model and says she is Korea's first able to interact live. SK Telecom, which used her in an ad, calls her a virtual human whose voice is generated with its AI speech synthesis.
The one place a human appears is that SK Telecom commercial. The Korea Times reports her face was graphically placed over a real actress who performed the role on set, and the actress is not named. That makes the ad a one-off hybrid production, but it does not change what SUA is: a CG character with a synthetic voice. Nothing in the pages read says a named person voices or fronts her own Instagram, TikTok or YouTube.
What is not known is how her feed is produced day to day, since no interview or making-of was found. The accounts have been dormant since late 2023, so there is no recent statement to check either.
Evidence
Onmind said its artificial intelligence virtual human model Sua signed a three-year billboard deal with the Thai advertising firm DDD, and described her as Korea's first AI virtual human capable of live interaction.
asianews.networkSK Telecom said Sua's face was graphically transposed over a real actress who performed the role in its A. commercial, and that her voice was created with its AI speech synthesis technology.
koreatimes.co.krSK Telecom said Sua, created by 3D virtual human developer On Mind, is the first virtual human in Korea to use AI voice technology in a commercial, where earlier virtual humans used a voice actor's dubbing.
