I first learned about Kora Kengo when I saw Norwegian Wood. He’s not the main cast and he died in the movie. I feel that he resembles Masanobu Ando, both the face and the talent. If you watch more of his works, you’ll find him fit as a psychopath. And that’s how I like him. haha
However, my favorite is when he played Detective Tomoda in HARD NUT. Damn, he’s so cool. He looks best when portraying the less smiled character. When he smiles, he often shows shy giggles, just like in Ohisama.
Kora was born on November 12, 1987, in Kumamoto. He’s currently working under an agency called Aprés (Ten Carat.ltd).
