Bio
Minami was the child of a Korean mother and Japanese father. In 1930, he moved to New Salta to study economics at the New Salta University.

In 1960, Minami, as an independent, waged a presidential campaign against Hiroshi Kayos, whom he denounced as a "strongman" and "hypocrite". Minami lost, and complained of electoral fraud even though Kayos won free and fairly by popular vote. Two days after the results of the election were announced, a car bomb was planted and exploded in Minami's car, killing his son, Minoru. After that day, Minami moved to West El Kadsre, where he met Michael Vlokozu.

Minami supported the West El Kadsreian invasion of East El Kadsre in 1969. In 1973, he was promoted from his position as Minister of Commerce to the Governor of Vlokozuian State of El Kadsre, a position he served until he was elected president of the Union in 1978, being sworn in on April 5.

Minami was known for being one of the hardliners in the Vlokozuian Labor Party. He disagreed with reforming and democratizing the Union and cracked down on student protests.

On April 16, 1982, Minami informed Michael Vlokozu that Tara Fujimoto, a governor of the Northern Vlokozuian State of El Kadsre who was secretly a prominent member of the anti-VU movement, was planning a coup against him and the Labor party and dissolve the union. Vlokozu ordered the SSV to arrest him and his wife Kotone Fujimoto out of anger, taken to a secret trial, where he and his wife were convicted of political sabotage, conspiracy and treason against the Union and were immediately executed via firing squad led by Alonso Ursúa.

Protests started in Makohiro after the death of Fujimoto was announced on television. With approval by Vlokozu, Minami ordered the military to go to Makohiro to violently end the protests. The protests ended with a massacre by the military, causing international condemnation. In December 1983, Minami assumed "full responsibly" for the events that happened in Makohiro, apparently to clear Vlokozu's name and his role in the massacre.

In 1984, Minami resigned from the presidency and lived in obscurity until his death in 2004.
