Fumiya’s YouTube channel “FumiShun Base” has continued to entertain his fans ever since he made his debut in the entertainment industry as the “housemate” known as the “Konichi-Wonder Vlogger of Japan” in the Philippines’ version of reality TV show Big Brother (Season 8, 2019).
Fumiya’s rise to popularity began with this Filipino adaptation of the reality TV show (he finished fifth). The audience was captivated by his gregarious personality.
Project XENO Appoints Fumiya As Ambassador
It’s the pleasing personality, wit and playful vibe of Fumiya that caught the attention of strategy-based blockchain game Project XENO that landed him the ambassador post for Southeast Asia.
The 27-year-old star vlogger has over 6 million followers across all of his social media channels.
As a social media creator based in the “Pearl of the Orient Seas” (the Philippines), Fumiya is also a prolific actor and singer.
In addition to his role as SNS ambassador for B League Sanen Neo Phoenix, Fumiya is currently the Tourism ambassador for the prefectures of Shizuoka and Hamamatsu.
Project XENO & Fumiya Bring The Good News About Blockchain & Entertainment
As a representative of Project XENO, Fumiya juggles his busy schedule to stay up with the local entertainment scene in the Philippines and abroad while promoting blockchain, NFTs, and other exciting things for which Project XENO is well-known.
“When I was living in the Philippines, I saw many young and old playing games on their smartphones,” Fumiya said in a recent interview.
“I would be happy to help spread new entertainment to Filipinos who love such a game, and the country as a whole gets excited!” he added.
Fumiya announced plans earlier this year to open a café with a Filipino motif named “Kape Tayo in Tokyo” (“Let’s have coffee in Tokyo”). In addition to his expertise in business, he enjoys reading and photography.
The Philippines As Home To The Japanese
His clever and amusing content, as well as his broken but endearing attempt to speak the Filipino language, also caught the attention of major TV networks in the Philippines, which led to multiple live appearances.
As of October 2021, the Philippines was home to almost 16,000 Japanese citizens. According to data collected by Japanese diplomatic missions abroad, this number does not include descendants of Japanese emigrants who do not hold Japanese citizenship.
More Collaborations In The Pipeline For Project XENO
Project XENO intends to appoint ambassadors and hold further partnerships in the United States, India, South Korea, and the Middle East in order to spread the word about the undertaking.
Filipinos hold a particular place in their hearts for Fumiya. He is, without a doubt, “the most famous Japanese in the Philippines.”
