<p> A woman &#8230;&#8230; smiles and waves at the camera while running nimbly. She is actor Yuko Shinki (32).</p>
<p> On January 19, the opening preview of the fashion brand DIOR&#8217;s pop-up event &#8220;Dior Addict Candy Shop&#8221; was held in Harajuku (Shibuya-ku, Tokyo), and many celebrities visited.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> On the day of the event, the store was packed with many fans as the celebrities who have been appointed ambassadors of the brand visited the store. Mr. Shinki became a Japan ambassador in 2008. Since then, she has regularly appeared at shows of the collection held in Paris, France,&#8221; said a fashion magazine reporter.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> Shinki appeared in a light blue blouse and a green miniskirt with a unique design. At the press conference held at the venue, she was asked about her aspirations for this year,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I would like to challenge voice training. I would like to deepen my vocalization a little more. It would be nice if I could make a change.</span></p>
<p> I hope I can make a change,&#8221; she replied. After the event, Shinki left the venue, waving to her waiting fans as she ran down the street.</p>
<p> Another person who was welcomed by the waiting fans under the cold weather was fashion model and actor, Rikako Yagi (24).</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Yagi won the grand prix out of 7,851 applicants at an audition held by the modeling agency Ageacross in 2003, and made her modeling debut as the younger sister of Kiko Mizuhara (35), a senior model at the agency. The following year, she was chosen as a brand character for &#8220;Pocari Sweat,&#8221; and her name quickly became known.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The same year, she made her acting debut in &#8220;The Girl Who Leapt Through Time&#8221; (Nippon Television).&#8217; In 2012, he starred in &#8220;Undercover Siblings: Special Fraud Investigators&#8221; (NTV) with Ryusei Ryo (32). In the same year, he became the &#8220;Dior Japan Ambassador&#8221; for Christian Dior&#8221; (TV magazine writer).</span></p>
<p> On the day of the event, Yagi appeared in a light blue striped shirt-like top and a light blue knee-length flared skirt. Yagi came out of the venue with a pink pouch in her hand and, like Shinki, left the venue smiling and waving to her fans.</p>
<p> Their smiles, as fresh as a spring breeze, were surely enough to meet the fans&#8217; expectations.</p>
