Yuko Araki: Her intro post #1- 2017 magazine scans and more....



 Have mentioned a few times about introducing Yuko and thought it was finally time. Should be quite a few upcoming posts as she's one busy woman, currently she's starring as an intern doctor in the third season of 'Code Blue'. Also she's was in the "Million Yen Women" series which I just did the recaps for the third and fourth episodes yesterday.
 In the drama Yuko plays Nanaka who is a very popular actress who mysteriously disappeared about a year ago. Show started out slow but has picked up and looks like it's going to turn out to be a fine watch. Yuko is represented by the Stardust agency as this huge fave of mine is, wonder why we haven't seen the pair do any activities together?


 Besides being a busy actress Yuko is also a high in demand model and appears in so many mags along with many promo event appearances. Have noticed her quite often the last 2-3 years but never thought about posting about her until recently.
 Even though Yuko has been around for many years always thought she was much younger then she actually is, she'll be turning 24 in December. Don't think I reviewed it but first saw her in the "Schoolgirl Complex" film from 2013 which was a very interesting and odd movie.
 Yuko is an exclusive model for Non-No but don't have any pics from their mags today but will be having many coming up. First off isn't a true mag spread as Hikari Graph is more of a website mag and these pics are from a May interview.















 There's honestly so many Yuko things from this year to post about wasn't sure where to start, every post will have a little bit of everything. As mentioned Yuko does appear in many mags, have five pics each here from the April and May editions of 25ans.











 Yuko released her first photobook on July 18th. This set from the July 31st issue of Big Comic Spirits was a spread promoting it.








 Future posts will be bigger, kind of burnt out after doing that long recap for the 'Reunited Worlds" drama. Four days after Yuko's first PB was released she held a fan signing session for it at HMV Books in Shibuya. The book is titled "Girlfriend", have seen many pics from it and may post the scans from it soon.
 It's a fine photobook but not at all like the gravure pics we've come to expect from Idols. Plenty of pics here from the event but shocked there was no video for it. So after the pics have a video for 'Vogue Girl' as she was their model of the month for last October.

  2. Always thought she was known more for being a model but that's not entirely true as it seems her acting career has become much more successful. Will work on having many more posts and could have the next one later today.
