Feature: Margaret Wang Yu Jie
Ninespiral’s Underrated Asian Beauties Column
Who she is: Wang Yu Jie/Margaret Wang (王宇婕)
What she does: Actress, Model and some time long ago, songstress.
Where she’s active: Mainland China; Taiwan.
Why she’s underrated: Though she’s been around for a long time, I didn’t take much notice of her until the GQ scans (0001 to 0004) came out.
Her popularity declined significantly a few years back when it was revealed that she had anorexia and she started fading into obscurity. Now that she’s supposedly recovered from the eating disorder, she’s been steadily making progress back to the top.
I’d say more bikini pics would definitely do it.
