Yusei Yagi
Yusei Yagi is a prominent member of the J-pop ensemble Fantastics, part of the renowned Exile Tribe, under the management of LDH. Initially, Yusei devoted his youth to soccer, but after an injury sidelined him, he seized the moment to explore his passion for music. This shift in focus led him to compete in the Best Body Japan 2016 contest, where he impressively secured second place in the Mister Best Body Super Model category.
In 2017, LDH sought new talent through the Vocal Battle Audition 5, and Yusei emerged victorious alongside fellow contestant Nakajima Sota. This success paved the way for his official debut with Fantastics in 2018. Yusei's career took a significant turn in 2021 when he transitioned into acting, landing a leading role in the drama "MY BEAUTIFUL MAN." His performances have garnered attention, earning him both lead and supporting roles in numerous television dramas and films.
Yusei's talent was recognized on international platforms as he received the "Outstanding Asian Star Prize" at the Seoul International Drama Awards in 2022 for his work in "MY BEAUTIFUL MAN," voted on by fans from five Asian countries. He continued to shine, claiming the "Best New Actor Award" and the "Topic Actor Pair Award" at the WEIBO Account Festival in December 2022. In a historic achievement, Yusei won the "Outstanding Asian Star Prize" again in 2023, marking the first time an actor has won consecutively. His charisma also led him to be named the top handsome figure in the "NOW" category of ViVi's 2024 mid-year rankings, cementing his status in the fashion world.
