Shogen modeled in Europe while backpacking around the world after graduating from collage. He returned to Japan in 2004 to start his career as an actor.
He made his film debut in “Bloody Snake Under The Sun” (2005) which is about people of Okinawa under US military occupation in the postwar period. Shogen played Sanshin ( Okinawan Traditional Guitar ) player in the film.
He then took a keen interest in realism acting and moved to New York in 2008 to train at Blacknexxus under Susan Batson and other coaches.
Today, Shogen actively takes part in various productions around the world. He is known as Young Goken in "Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist” and FBI agent Raye Penber in “Death Note”.
He starred in a boxing film “Gensan Punch” directed by award winning Filipino director Brillante Mendoza. The film won the Kim Jisoek Award at Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) in 2021. He received ASIAN STAR AWARD at BIFF in 2022.

大学毕业后,他背着背包环游世界,在欧洲从事模特工作。他于2005年在描绘战后冲绳的电影《Bloody Snake Under the Sun》中首次亮相。他扮演了三线弹奏者的主角,并获得第20届东京国际电影节竞赛部门的提名。在2008年,他在纽约与现实主义戏剧相遇,深受触动,并决定全心全意地学习表演,于是前往美国。如今,他以日本为基地,不仅在本国电影中大量亮相,还参演了许多海外作品。
2021年,他在扮演主角并担任制片人的令人着迷的电影《Gensan Punch》中获得了备受赞誉的金积束奖,该片在备受尊崇的釜山国际电影节上斩获殊荣。随后的2022年,他再次在同一电影节上荣获亚洲之星奖,以表彰他在电影界的卓越贡献。
