Shuhei Nomura: Why was he perusing a “motorcycle magazine” at a bookstore in Daikanyama?
Very busy with movies, dramas, and stage productions
It was around 8 p.m. one night in early August. It was around 8 p.m. one night in early August when actor Shuhei Nomura, 28, appeared at a bookstore in Daikanyama (Shibuya Ward, Tokyo). Even with his hat on his head, he could not hide his aura. He paid no mind to the stares of those around him, and after purchasing a drink at the store’s café, he went to the magazine section.
Nomura is well known for his love of motorcycles and American cars, and on this day he picked up several motorcycle magazines and flipped through the pages eagerly. Nomura will appear in “YAKKIN Ushijima-kun Gaiden: YAKKIN SAIHARA-SAN” (TBS), which will start airing in September. So he was taking time out of his busy schedule to immerse himself in his hobby.
Nomura is an obsessive person, and he is not satisfied until he has pursued his hobbies to the end of his life. Skateboarding, snowboarding, and BMX are his specialties, as are cars, motorcycles, and fishing.
He has changed cars many times, and his Harley has been customized so much that it is quite expensive. Even when he has money, he seems to pour it mostly into his hobbies.
Entertainment reporter Takayuki Jyoshita comments on Nomura as follows: “He is one of the most popular young actors among the many young actors.
I think he is in a good position among young actors. That is proof that he has built a good relationship with the production side. His multifaceted hobbies also help him communicate well with the production team.
Nomura’s hobbies have led him to star in a movie about drift racing. He will continue to make full use of his hobbies in his work as well.
