Daisuke Ryu (Japanese: 隆大介, Korean:류다이스케, hanja: 類大輔, born 14 January 1957 in Tokyo, Japan) is a Korean actor living in Japan.[1] He won the Japanese "best new actor" Blue ribbon award for his performance as the great warlord Oda Nobunaga in Akira Kurosawa's movie Kagemusha (The Shadow Warrior). Other notable performances include Saburo Ichimonji in another Kurosawa epic, Ran, and the legendary yamabushi Benkei in Sogo Ishii's critically acclaimed Gojoe: Spirit War Chronicle.

He starred opposite Samantha Bond in the 1989 television serial The Ginger Tree (based on the novel by Oswald Wynd), playing Count Kentaro Kurihama.

On March 21st 2015, Ryu flew to Taoyuan International Airport after an invite from Taiwan's cultural office, only to spark an incident when he was told to step aside and fill out his entry form. Inebriated, Ryu got into an argument and assaulted an immigration officer, breaking the officer's leg in the process.
