Yeay, finally i can post about Kudo Asuka, who is my current celebrity crush. Hehe. After posting about many male idol (mostly Johnny’s) i could move on to an actor now. Hehe.
I’m so exicted with Kudo Asuka after seeing him on Ie Uru Ona which aired few years ago. I never knew that he is not only good at acting but also has interesting personality and background. I kinda like his manly yet childsish face and his good boy vibes. I know he doesn’t have many work yet, but i hope he will be more recognized.
So, without further ado, let get to know him!
1. He Entered Entertaiment World
When he was a child, Asuka never thought that he would be an actor. He always wanted to become sport player just like his father. He used to appear on stage play titled “Oliver” when he was on junior high. He remembered that everyone on the stage started to sing after his dialogue, that moment really made him happy and he thought that it was so great to perform in front of the audience. But at that time he never thought that he would become an actor.
But when he was 20 years old, his father asked him “what he would be” because he is now already a grow up man. Asuka then said to his father that he wanna be an actor. At first his father was little bit worried with his dedicion but later saying “if you really into it and that something that you wanna do, i’ll permit you.”
Asuka then auditioned for role on dorama “Roosevelt Game” which he won after defeated 500 people. His role is baseball player just like his father. Thanks to this drama, Asuka gain a lot of attention.

He and His Family Rule
When he was child and his father was an active player, he and his siblings had strict rule on their house.
His father is so sensitive with sound and often come home on late night. His father used to sleep at the morning and they even put the gum tape on his window to make sure that sunlight didn’t enter the room.
His father can wake up easily even when he hear whispering sound. To make sure that his father didn’t wake up, Asuka and his brother sister rarely use toilet, because the flashing sound from toilet can wake him up. Asuka who was elementary student that time had to hold his ‘needs’ and often did it on the school. LOL.
They also used to wear their shoes after they go out from the door because the sound of their shoes might be wake his father up. They also carefully close the door to not create any noises.

Asuka confessed that he never plays catch-ball with his father, but when he was second years of high school, his father suddenly asked him to play with him. Asuka was so happy that time because that was the first time his father make him play baseball.
