Biography
Yūko Fueki is a Japanese actress born in Tokyo on June 21, 1979. She achieved greater prominence in South Korea, where audiences know her as Yoo Min, than in her home country. Fueki's entry into film came via Hotaru (2001), her feature debut, and she began her Korean television work that same year. Her dual-market presence made her the subject of a legal dispute between the Korean company A Stars and her Japanese talent agency Riku Corporation. In 2005, Fueki appeared in the film Sinseolguk (Shin Yukiguni in Japan), which generated significant controversy after the Korean release followed her nude photo shoot by only a few months; the resulting media attention was so intense that the film's website crashed from traffic. As an actor, Fueki performs in film and television across multiple regions and languages. A Cancer born in mid-summer, her life-path number 8 traditionally signals ambition and resilience in navigating public scrutiny.
