Biography

He is fluent in Japanese, English and Spanish and has started learning Chinese after being cast in Chocolat.
He is often mistaken for being of mixed race due to living overseas for long and because of his toned physique from working out, but he is 100% Japanese. He values living in different countries and learning about the culture and meeting their people.
He says many people tell him they were initially intimidated but unexpectedly find him funny after meeting him. He notes that he was constantly asked to glare into the camera for fashion shots, so people who have seen his photos often have a preconceived notion that he is mean.
He is big on correspondence and always sends a hand-written note to close friends and family members on their birthdays. He also updates his blogs frequently.
He was always interested in English and motorcycles since he was little, and watched English TV programs in earnest. According to his blog, he decided to move to the United States when he was in elementary school after watching the American movie Smokey and the Bandit II.
During elementary school, he mastered riding a miniature Yamaha Motocross. He still rides his vintage U.S.-manufactured Honda that he rode in New York that he arranged to send back to Japan. He has said, “A motorcycle is a man’s life partner to pursue his dreams.”
He is friends with New York-based exotic skin and leather artist Anton, and studied fashion by going to his studio every day. It was Anton who convinced Wada to model for the first time.
He worships Bruce Lee’s way of life. He has pursued multiple martial art forms including Aikido and Kung Fu. He has followed a workout regimen for over 15 years, reaching a point of doing over 1200 push-ups a day.
