Discover a rare glimpse of a popular model in her own clothes!　Sae Okazaki, who has been in the limelight for a number of high-profile movies, “The day she catches up with her classmate, Susu Hirose”.

Actor Sae Okazaki celebrated her 28th birthday in November. While she has been active as a model for a long time since she started her career in 2012, her presence in dramas and movies has only increased. In recent years, she has appeared in the Tsuki 9 drama “Trace – Kagaku Shouken no Otoko” and “Night Doctor” (both on Fuji Television). In April last year, she played the lead role in her first drama series, “Escape from a Bride Less Than a Bride” (TV Tokyo).

Okazaki has been active as a model for over 11 years. She is currently the exclusive model for the women’s fashion magazine “Ray” and boasts a charismatic popularity with her innocent smile and beautiful style. On the other hand, she is also expanding her activities as an actress. In particular, in “Escape Under the Bride,” she gave an imposing performance that one would not expect from her first starring role, and she successfully portrayed a complicated love triangle between adults. Thanks to Okazaki’s fine performance, the film became so popular that a special drama titled “Complete Version” was broadcast in January of this year. Her ability to express herself is highly regarded in the industry,” said a source in the entertainment industry.

It was in September of this year that I witnessed a brief glimpse into the private life of this extremely busy and popular actress. At dusk, when it was still hot, Okazaki appeared in a corner of a bar area in Tokyo. After about two hours, she emerged from the building, stopped at a pharmacy to make some purchases, and then got into a cab and disappeared into the night.

Okazaki’s obsession with beauty is so great that she is known as a beauty product fanatic, buying compression products, massage guns, and other beauty products. I think she finds time to invest in herself. In the movie “Green Rustle,” released in September of this year, she expanded her acting range by playing a character with a stalker’s temperament, the complete opposite of the cheerful image she has had up to now. I hope she will be as active as Hirose (Suzu, 25), who was selected as “Miss Seventeen 2012,” the event that led to her debut, and is now an actor representing her generation.

The day when a charismatic model becomes a great actor may not be far off.
