Manila, March 21st, 2024: M.S. Lab Inc. announced that the talented Fumiya will be appearing in a significant project exploring important themes in both the Philippines and Japan. He will portray the character Kazuo Toro, who plays a pivotal role in the story. It is truly an honor to have contributed to this production.


In response to the announcement, Fumiya expressed his gratitude, stating,

"I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone involved in working on this film under Director Joel, and to everyone who participated in the screening. I am deeply honored to portray Toro. When I was approached to join this project, I happened to be in Vigan, where I learned about the historical relationship between the Japanese military and the Filipino people, which served as the inspiration for my role. Understanding the authentic narrative behind this film filled me with positivity and a sense of purpose.

Additionally, the resonance between the true story I learned in Vigan and the message I aimed to convey in this film was centered around love. I entered the filming process with the hope of expressing the profound essence of love through my portrayal. Despite the historical conflicts between Japan and the Philippines, I am genuinely pleased that the two nations now share a bond of friendship. I am committed to further strengthening this positive relationship, honoring the legacy of our predecessors, and ensuring the continued prosperity of both countries."

As our company aims to bridge the gap between the Philippines and Japan, we take pride in our talent's involvement in this production.

Additionally, we remain committed to fostering connections between the two countries and endeavor to contribute to their further development and prosperity.
