He rose to prominence in the racing world at a young age, winning the championship title as a part of the works team. After entering our school, he discovered competitive drifting and became a student drifting champion in his third year. In his fourth year, he aimed for a second consecutive victory, but unfortunately ended up in second place. After graduating, he worked at his parents’ maintenance shop and aspired to become a professional drift driver, but decided to step away from drifting in order to reconsider his future. However, because he didn’t want to have any regrets, he returned to the world of drifting. Although he did not achieve the results he had hoped for in his first year participating in D1 Lights after his return, in 2024 he entered the race as part of the Houseinnovation RACING TEAM and won the series championship.
