Yuki Kuroda, whose “drastic change in bijou” is the talk of the town, was photographed by this magazine as a “beautiful boy” at the age of 11 who was “touched on the buttocks by a pervert.
Actor/director Yuki Kuroda (42) is the talk of the town for his recent appearance on SNS. Some have expressed surprise at his appearance, which is a far cry from the beautiful boy image he once had when he was called a “child prodigy.
On March 26, Kuroda uploaded a recent photo of himself on SNS, saying, “For the second time in 20 years, I’m going to take a break for a while,” and his wild appearance with blond hair and a beard was picked up by the Internet news.
On May 8, he uploaded a photo of himself with blonde hair and beard, a skinhead head, and a shaved beard and eyebrows, saying, ” This is how I wanted to do it. I thought he looked like something, but when I looked it up, it turned out to be a walrus…”, “Where the hell is he going for? Where in the world are you going?
On May 18, she posted that her hair had grown a little longer and her head had become shaved, saying, “I look like a thug.
Kuroda made his debut as Shingen’s grandson, Nobukatsu, in the 1988 NHK historical drama “Takeda Shingen. He continued to perform as a “child prodigy,” becoming the youngest actor to play the lead role at the age of eight on the stage of the Imperial Theatre. The drama “Ningen Shikkaku” (Human Disqualification: If I Die) in 1994 had a particularly strong impact on him.
In the much-talked-about drama, which was written by Shinji Nojima and co-starred the two members of KinKi Kids, Kuroda played the role of Tsuyoshi Domoto, who at first saves his friend from being bullied, but later takes the lead and becomes the bully, eventually driving him to his death. He eventually became mentally ill, frightened by the vision of the dead Tsuyoshi, and his “monstrous” performance became the talk of the town. The actor was so truly tormented that he was even sent a razor to the actor’s head.
This magazine interviewed Kuroda in its April 29, 1994 issue, which was supposedly before the filming of “Ningen Shikkaku. According to the article at the time, Kuroda appeared in a commercial for Fujitsu’s FM TOWNS, and was asked by the company’s advertising department, “Is this girl a boy or a girl? Or is she a girl? Kuroda was reportedly inundated with inquiries from the company’s advertising department, asking, “Is this a boy or a girl?
Kuroda, who at the time had begun to grow her hair long, was often mistaken for a woman, revealing, “I was once touched on the buttocks by a pervert on the train (laugh). Kuroda, who was also scheduled to appear in the historical drama “Hana no ran” at the time, expressed his aspirations for the future , saying, “In the future, I aim to become an actor who can play a man, a woman, a tree, or a stone.
In 1998, Kuroda won the Japan Academy Award for Best New Actor for Yoji Yamada’s “School III” and was active in dramas and films from the 1990s to the 2000s. In 2010, Kuroda left the agency and became a freelance actor. At one point, he called himself a “hypermedia freelancer” and began working part-time while working on the Internet, which often became a topic of conversation on the Internet. Since 2012, in addition to acting, he has been directing and working as a film director.
In his personal life, he married an actress for the second time in July ’20 and revealed that they had one child, but last November he posted a meaningful message on SNS, “I guess that means it wasn’t my child after all.
As for her future, Kuroda wrote on her blog, “I don’t know how I’m going to conduct myself until the divorce is over, so when my hair grows back, I’ll work diligently again. As for the visual change, he said that he grew his beard for the role and played with it before shaving it off. We look forward to seeing what he does after his hair grows longer and he is back on his feet again.
