Shinozaki Ai is still making waves as a gravure model nearly two decades after going viral for her curvy figure.
Born February 26, 1992, in Tokyo, the 33-year-old Japanese model first caught major attention in 2016 when her MAXIM cover sold out, especially in South Korea.
By 2018, her South Korean gigs increased and her talent fee there doubled compared to Japan.
She credits her success in Korea to her unique physique in a market dominated by slim models.
"There are lots of slim models in Korea so a rounder model like me makes them feel intrigued and excited."
