2006-04-21

Yoon Eun-hye, the lead actress of the TV drama "Princess Hours," will perform as a fashion model.

Yoon will appear as a fashion model for Michiko Koshino, a world-renowned fashion designer who is participating in the "2006-2007 Autumn-Winter Collection in Seoul." Koshino will release a "black-label fashion collection," a first in Asia, during this fashion show.

An official from Michiko Koshino Korea said, "Early this year, Michiko London was looking for a Korean celebrity who would look the best in a school uniform in a bid to advance into the Korean school uniform market. We recommended Yoon Eun-hye to our headquarters in London as the best candidate for the role. We watched her stylishly wearing a school uniform, traditional costume, and casual wear in the drama ‘Princess Hours.’"

Meanwhile, after she was diagnosed with pernicious anemia at a hospital, Yoon had planned to temporarily stop all her activities. But when she expressed her strong intention to perform in the fashion show, her agency also agreed with her.

In the upcoming Michiko Koshino fashion show, Ryan, the leader of the music group "Paran," will also appear as a model alongside Yoon.
