Yuri Nakamura has passed away. She was 44. The performer of Japanese-Korean descent suffered from cancer. Per reports it was rectal cancer. She did not discuss the illness publicly. Nakamura starred in "Romantics Anonymous" and "Pacchigi! Love & Peace." Following her passing, people took another look at a seven-year-old ad. In it, she played a mother with cancer. Back then, she had already had surgery for the disease. That detail is now drawing notice. Her screen work remains remembered.
