krymarh May 11 2021 10:28 pm As I watched Nodame Cantabile with my daughter(slightly older than Nodame in the series), not once, in the middle of laughs, I wanted to pat Nodame's head to console her. I was so touched by the warmth coming from both character and actress that I literally, although still laughing, stroked the screen. We both had the most joyous time watching Nodame-Cantabile. Thanks Maria

jurippe Jun 30 2020 9:03 am I suddenly missed her upon seeing her in the Korean movie, The Beauty Inside. I am glad she is happily married now.

irfan Dec 28 2018 9:35 am when watching good doctor (jap vers) i tried to remember who's natsumi cast..now i remember that she's in nodame cantabile drama ?

L*JD Sep 22 2017 4:13 am love her as Mao in "Hidamari no Kanojo". So pretty!

jodistrings Jan 18 2017 9:22 am I visited her IG account, then I saw a comment about her marriage. Gosh where have I been all this time, I didn't know she's married now.

Mia Shouta Jun 01 2016 3:06 am Congratulations for you wedding onee-chan . . . blessed with love & happiness always.

rocke May 27 2016 6:46 pm Congratz on your marriage Ueno Juri!! so happy for both of you

ponyang Jan 10 2016 1:35 am Hi! XiYe i think we are two here in the PH ^^ i love her a lot too! she is just very unique and wonderfully good in what she does. When she laughs and smiles, it is so real that you are also showered with the same happiness! I love it when the mood she portrays is so contagious to the audience. Good actress! Been a big fan ever since Nodame ^^

Anna Sep 16 2015 12:23 pm can't wait for her new drama with TOP from bigbang in secret message!!!!!

jodistrings Aug 21 2015 5:26 am I haven't seen her in a while. I've been searching for an English subtitle for Hidamari no Kanojo since 2013, but I haven't been successful that I just gave up. But now I guess if I search for it, I can find subbed videos of it that is available in my country. And I'm so fed up with other stuff that I was not able to get updates of her new movies/series. Hopefully, I find time soon. I wanna watch them.

Waves @XiYe. I'm also a fan from the PH. I've been a fan since Nodame Cantabile days. And I like her in Last Friends.

Claes Jul 30 2015 4:04 am I love Ueno Juri since I first see her in Naoko. I watched documentaries of her travelling to India and Tibet. I love her because it seems she's really different from another actress and she's doing things that not many other actresses did. She's unique (＾＾）/

And just a few days ago I watched Hidamari no.Kanojo and was totally in love with the movie, also Ueno Juri's and Matsujun's acting skill. The pair (ueno and matsujun) looks very natural and somehow I could also feel the feeling they both try to express :) ... it was one of the best movies I've ever seen.... ^^ you guys should watch it

Maybe i love her even more since I.saw that movie... I hope for another awesome movies and dramas from her in the future ^^

XiYe Jun 29 2015 7:46 pm ...or there might be? Or maybe it's a japanese one. I can't fully understand and write in jap, though. haha

XiYe Jun 29 2015 7:50 am I couldn't find any fan pages for her which makes me sad bc I think I'm the only one around here in ph that is a big fan of this wonderful actress hheheh
