Captivating Sounds and Eyes: Serina Hayakawa, Star of 'Pan Jinlian'

Serina Hayakawa
This issue's protagonist is the once incredibly popular actress, the dark world's Pan Jinlian [Saki Hayakawa]. [Saki Hayakawa] was born in 1986 and burst onto the dark scene in 2005 as an exclusive actress for H.M.P. Back then, she also held the title of "No. 1 Hotel Hostess in Roppongi," which was no small feat. As the top hostess with massive popularity in Roppongi, her clients were endless, and though the details of her debut weren't fully explained, anyone who saw her works would probably be genuinely shocked. While there's suspicion that [Saki Hayakawa] has had work done all over her body, you can't deny that her face is super cute, with incredibly expressive features, especially those soul-capturing eyes. The contrast with her anime-like voice has also driven many men wild, and her figure is well-proportioned—slim and tall, to boot. But if you ask about the biggest flaw in [Saki Hayakawa]'s life, it's undoubtedly those overly fake assets. Though her works have always been extremely bold, covering every imaginable theme, seeing those rock-hard enhancements can be a bit of a turn-off, but regardless, this minor imperfection didn't stop [Saki Hayakawa] from skyrocketing to superstardom as a massively popular actress. Her fame wasn't limited to Japan alone; she also garnered widespread attention across other parts of Asia. In 2008, [Saki Hayakawa] was invited by a Hong Kong film company to star in "The Golden Lotus II: The Secret of Love's Slaves" as Pan Jinlian. Being Japan's Pan Jinlian is probably a one-of-a-kind thing in history, but sadly, at the height of her popularity in 2010, [Saki Hayakawa] suddenly announced her retirement. In fact, many actresses leave the dark world and stay in the entertainment industry to seek opportunities. However, [Saki Hayakawa] chose to become an ordinary office worker or even work at a convenience store. After retiring, she once worked as an assistant at a construction company, but if clients showed up, they'd be totally stunned—and even colleagues from other departments would go to the boss saying, "Hey, isn't that person in your department a former actress?" As the news got out, [Saki Hayakawa] had no choice but to switch gears and become a store clerk, though even that didn't last long. According to [Saki Hayakawa]'s own recollection, on her last day at work, a delivery driver suddenly told her: "I've been keeping quiet all this time, but I've been your fan since high school." In the end, [Saki Hayakawa] realized that perhaps the dark world was her true calling. So, in 2015, she made a sudden comeback, re-entering the spotlight, and although she didn't reach the same level of massive fame as before, her fans were still over the moon. It's a bit regrettable, though, that while [Saki Hayakawa] hasn't retired again, her works only updated up to 2017, as she's shifted her focus to running her own girls' bar. The place is full of cute girls and is quite popular. It seems that besides being an actress, [Saki Hayakawa] most wants to return to her roots as the No. 1 Hotel Hostess in Roppongi. And it looks like she's achieved that, but either way, as her loyal fans, we have to wish her the best— and of course, if she hits tough times down the road, coming back to shoot a few more films would be a great choice.
