Yuko Ogura wins Gravure Idol Award +

Sankei Newspaper’s entertainment website ZakZak has awarded Yuko Ogura their first ever Gravure Idol Award on July 17th, 2008. Some may consider her a non tradition choice because usually popular gravure idols have a large chest. So its a pleasant change to see that you can have normal and realistic porportions and still be popular in the saturated Japanese gravure scene.

Yuko Ogura is a 24 year old actress, singer, and of course idol from Mobara, Chiba prefecture. She commonly goes by her nickname Yukorin. She is best known for singing the ending theme, Onnanoko♥Otokonoko (Girls♥Boys).

She is known for having an innocent personality (or that’s how she portrays herself). So i tried to find pictures that reflected that.
