Cue the squeals and racing hearts! Japanese heartthrob Kentaro Sakaguchi is finally coming to the Philippines for his Asia Tour Fan Meeting 2025!

Whether you fell in love with him as the sweet and sensitive Rita in Heroine Disqualified, or had your heart stolen by his dashing charm in My Love Story!!, Kentaro Sakaguchi has been making fans fall head over heels for almost a decade. From runway model to silver screen stunner, he’s proven that he’s more than just a pretty face (though let’s be honest—that face is perfection).

After being crowned Best New Actor at the 11th Osaka Cinema Festival, he went on to land critically acclaimed roles that flexed his range and emotional depth. Who could forget the gripping 2016 drama of 64: Parts 1 & 2, or the bittersweet beauty of The 100th Love with You? And then there’s Signal (2018), the suspense series that had us at the edge of our seats—and even more obsessed with his talent.


In 2021, he delivered a deeply moving performance in We Made a Beautiful Bouquet. But it was 2022’s The Last 10 Years that really had fans (and tissues) in hand.

Then, in 2024, Kentaro surprised everyone by making his K-drama debut in What Comes After Love. He played Jungo Aoki, a Japanese man navigating love across cultures. That bold career move won him not just applause, but actual awards.

Specifically, Filipino fans got a taste of his charm during last year’s AAA held in Bulacan, where he bagged the Best Artist (Actor) and Asia Celebrity trophies. But this time? He’s back for more than just a quick wave on stage. He’s coming to meet YOU. Up close. In person. In all his heart-melting, soft-smiling glory.
