Yūji Oda is a Japanese actor and singer. He is one of Japan's 11 most popular male entertainers, according to an NHK survey taken in 2004. In one survey, he was the second most popular actor after Takuya Kimura in Japan during the Heisei era (1989-2019).

Biography

Oda was born in Kawasaki, Kanagawa. In the late 1980s, he launched his career with the release of two singles on records.

In 1989, he appeared in the television drama Mama Haha Boogie, from which point he started to gain popularity as an actor, which also brought attention to his singing aspirations.

In 1991, he appeared in the enormously popular television drama Tokyo Love Story, a breakout role. He then became a leading man in Japanese film and television, generally playing the role of a sympathetic character.

His most famous role is Shunsaku Aoshima, a police detective in the Bayside Shakedown film and television drama series.

Personal life

On August 16, 2010, Oda married a non-celebrity woman 12 years younger than him. His wife gave birth to their son in October 2014. After the birth, Oda took a break from work for two years to help focus on child rearing.
