Gordon Maeda’s “rush of fans waiting to see him” shows how popular he is…!

One day in mid-September, the event space in Shiodome (Minato-ku) was filled with a festive atmosphere. The opening ceremony of the “Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival 2021” was being held there.

After 7:00 p.m., when the ceremony ended, the speakers emerged from the venue. Bakarhythm (45), who is also active as a screenwriter and actor, and Takumi Saito (40), who participated as a director, got into a pickup truck and left.

Finally leaving the venue after 8:00 p.m. was the fast-rising actor Maeda Go Udon (21). When he was approached by women waiting for him, he smiled and responded in a friendly manner.

“It was his first public appearance since the death of his father, Shinichi Chiba, in Corona, but he acted cheerfully as it was his first time to receive an award.

A few days before this, he was filming the drama “Promise Cinderella” (TBS) in Yokohama. I’m sure his father is watching from heaven to see his beloved son’s success.
