A 13-year-old Japanese student living in Singapore and attending XCL World Academy. He moved from Japan to Singapore at the age of six and has been residing there ever since. Hyuga is one of the founding members of the school's Media Club, a filmmaking group that produced the short film Mother’s Recipe. In the club, he initially focused on editing and worked on several school projects in that role. However, for Mother’s Recipe, Hyuga made a significant shift to step in front of the camera as an actor. With a background similar to the film's protagonist, Yuya, Hyuga brought authenticity and emotional depth to his performance, making it easy for the audience to empathize with the character. His well-rounded acting abilities greatly contributed to the film’s success. Hyuga is now expanding his experience as a supporting actor in the Media Club's upcoming project Unnoticed, which is set to be released soon.
