Top Actor Reveals He Works at Cleaning Company, Fans Stunned

On April 28th (according to local time), 40-year-old former Japanese actor Miura Kota made an appearance on Fuji TV’s late-night show “Bee The TOP”to discuss his life after retiring from the entertainment industry.

Despite the overwhelming support of many fans, Miura Kota made an appearance in this broadcast. He opened up about his decision to retire, citing the mental toll of his acting career being affected by the disappearance of drama roles due to the impact of COVID-19 in 2020.
