Popular Japanese actor Haruma Miura was found dead at his Tokyo home. According to investigative reports, the 30-year-old actor hanged himself on Saturday.
The sources said the actor was found by his manager at his home and an apparent suicide note was in his room. The actor has appeared in many movies such as “Attack on Titan,” “Eien no Zero” (Eternal Zero), “Kimi ni Todoke” (From Me to You), and “Koizora” (Sky of Love), committed suicide.
“To fans and people concerned, we apologize for the worry and the inconvenience caused, but as to details we are still confirming and will inform you once again,” his management company Amuse Inc. said in a statement.
“The Confidence Man JP – Episode of the Princess” in which he had a role as a “romance scammer,” is scheduled to hit Japanese screens next Thursday. The actor also started singing as a career last year.
Miura was scheduled to appear in a TV drama series starting in September and a musical kicking off at the year-end.
On his Instagram account, he had often posted pictures of dishes he cooked. On his 30th birthday in April, the actor posted a video in which he talked about his eagerness to “deliver fans fine and high-quality entertainment.”
Miura entered the profession as a child actor. He then featured in television dramas such as “Bloody Monday,” “Last Cinderella” and the “Gokusen” series.
He also appeared in a number of NHK period dramas and on stage, such as in the Japanese adaptation of the Broadway musical “Kinky Boots” in which he won the Haruko Sugimura Award in 2017 for his role as a drag queen.
