Biography
Ken Yasuda (安田 顕, Yasuda Ken, born 8 December 1973) is a Japanese actor, television personality and seiyu. Born in Muroran, Hokkaido, he is a member of Team Nacs. He is a graduate of Hokkaido Muroran Sakae High School and Hokkai Gakuen University. Fumio Yasuda is his older brother. At Hokkai Gakuen University, Yasuda joined the theater club and the theatrical company OOPARTS (led by its president Takayuki Suzui). In 1996, following graduation, Yasuda and theater club friends Hiroyuki Morisaki, Shigeyuki Totsugi, Yo Oizumi, and Takuma Oto'o created TEAM NACS. The team was disbanded after their first performance.
After graduating from university, Yasuda began working as a medical office worker. He stopped after 10 months because he wanted to concentrate on activities in the performing arts. After leaving the medical office, he worked part-time in Hokkaido, taking on jobs such as helping at a hotel breakfast buffet. Even during his part-time work, he continued to focus on his career in entertainment.
In 1997, Morisaki reunited TEAM NACS and Yasuda joined the group once more. Since 1998, he has appeared semi-regularly as a suit actor for the mascot character "on-chan" in "How Do You Like Wednesday?".
TEAM NACS held its first stage performance in May 2004, in Tokyo. In 2006, Yasuda made his first appearance in the national online drama series "Jirocho Seoi Fuji" (NHK). Since then, he has also appeared in serial dramas and movies of the Tokyo flagship station, and has also held starring roles in TV series.
