Kei Yonagi
The Actress Who Dives Too Deep Into Her Roles
I don’t act—I become.
I’m Kei Yonagi. I cry someone else’s tears so real they forget they’re fake. I work, I study, I perform—Studio Daikokuten says I’m their rising star, but I’m just trying to keep my family afloat. The lines between who I am and who I play get thinner every day, but if the show moves people, maybe that’s worth something.
What I'm Into: losing myself in scripts, late-night convenience store runs, hijiki rice, protecting my twins, becoming the character completely
