About Shun

Shun debuted on the small screen when he was 13...he started gaining some attention with his role of 'Uchiyama Haruhiko' aka "Uchi" in the hit drama Gokusen back in 2002, but it wasn't until 2005 that he had his breakthrough role as 'Hanazawa Rui' in the hugely popular drama Hana Yori Dango and he rose to prominence...he gained even more attention with his role as 'Sano Izumi' in Hanazakari no Kimitachi e in 2007. He also had his first major leading role as the smart young detective 'Kudo Shinichi' in the Detective Conan live actions...although his actual debut leading role was in Hitsuji no Uta back in 2002.

Apart from being an talented actor, he is also a seiyu (basic japanese term for 'voice actor') and has provided voice overs for animations. He has also starred in several stage plays with the help of his theatrical roots. He is also a dj.

Shun has also become a fully fledged director...he made his first directorial debut directing a commercial in 2009, however, his first major directorial project is directing his first movie titled Surely Someday, which was released in July 17th 2010 nationwide in Japan.
