“何食べる！？ (What should we eat…?!)”
YAMAKO wears a light green shirt with black pants with a holiday crown and white hat. His name means “Mountain Kid.” YAMAKO is an actor in 2 movies. He was in BORDERLAND: Alternate Universe, HOCO25. Growing up, he had abusive parents, and constantly got hit. To this day, he has a mini bruise on his knee. He’d often run away and camp at this alleyway. That was his alone time, he’d cry. He’d often flinch when people raised their hand. Beside that, he would say life is good. He used to save money and go to his local convenience store, Lawson, to get himself snacks. He actually planned to be a singer instead of an actor. When YAMAKO was 14, he met NIKO online on a Japanese chatting app. To this day they still have contact. YAMAKO told NIKO about his problems and NIKO tried helping as much as possible. YAMAKO flew to Korea to the JYP building. YAMAKO knew only a little bit of dance and sing. As a Sophomore, YAMAKO took acting classes. After, he saw a show looking for auditions, so he auditioned for BORDERLANDS: AU, and got accepted. He played DANO in the show. After, he auditioned in a show in Los Angeles, and played as NAIKU, or english name NAI, a foreign exchange student. YAMAKO never knew he would be an actor. As a side job, YAMAKO also has a YouTube Channel dedicated to restaurants, tourist attractions, local’s favorites, vlogs, snacks, etc around Japan. He does videos in English and sometimes fully Japanese, so Japanese people could understand him. His channel is called やまこといっしょ日本探検 (Explore Japan w/ YAMAKO).
