Biography
Biography
Fueki was the subject of a legal dispute between the Korean company A Stars and the Japanese talent agency Riku Corporation. In 2005, nude scenes in the movie Sinseolguk (known as Shin Yukiguni in Japan) caused a brief scandal for Fueki, as the Korean release of the movie had followed on the heels of her nude photo shoot just a few months earlier. For a time, the film's website received so many visitors that it briefly crashed.
