Machida Keita “Expecting synergy with Korean actors” [Photoshoot]

Japanese actor Machida Keita met with Arena Homme Plus.

Machida Keita is a famous actor in Korea with works such as ‘Alice in Borderland’ ‘Cherry Maho: If You‘re a Virgin Until You’re 30, You Can Become a Wizard’. He showed off his own unique charm while shooting his first photoshoot in Korea. He entered the studio as a young man with a shaggy appearance, and as soon as the photoshoot began, he showed off a variety of strong images and a multi-layered side of himself that cannot be defined as one thing.

In the interview that followed, he talked about various topics, from how he became an actor to his desire to appear in a Korean production. Machida Keita said, “I‘ve played a variety of roles while I’ve been active, so there‘s nothing that really has a set pattern. I’ve played strong characters, likable characters, and even ghosts.“ He, who was able to play a variety of roles because he didn‘t have a fixed image, also revealed his ambitions for his activities in Korea. He continued, ”Apart from the role, I wonder what kind of acting I can bring out when I act with Korean actors. I’m looking forward to the synergy that can be expressed in new ways.“

You can see the pictorial and interview of Keita Machida, who is passionate about looking forward to everything and wants to try it, in the January issue of Arena Homme Plus.
