Takeuchi Yūko (竹内結子, b. April 1, 1980) is a Japanese actress originally from Saitama Prefecture. She is popular for her cute looks and cheerful image.
Making her big break with NHK's television series Asuka and JT"Green's" commercial, she has gone on to star in many tv shows, movies, and commercials.
She has been in such Japanese television dramas as Mukodono (My Husband), Lunch No Joou (The Queen of Lunch), Egao No Hōsoku, and Pride. In Mukodono she comically plays a newly-wed with popular band TOKIO's lead singer, Nagase Tomoya, and in Lunch no Jouou she plays an active girl with a mysterious past. Egao No Hōsoku shows her experience meeting new people while supporting a manga writer, and in Pride she is a symbol of the good old days to the main character, played by Takuya Kimura.
