Asuca Hayashi (林 明日香, Hayashi Asuka) (born May 28, 1989) is a Japanese singer who debuted at the age of 13 in January 2003 in Japan and Taiwan.
Biography
Born and raised in Osaka, Hayashi became a performer after her piano teacher sent a tape of her singing to a music producer.
Impressed with Hayashis talent, a representative Toshiba Emis Southeast Asia division arranged to release her debut single, ake-kaze, on the same day as its Japanese release.
Her debut album, called Saku (咲), was released on the same day in Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Mainland China. She has gained fans throughout Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the United States.
Her hit song, titled Chiisaki Mono or Make a Wish (English Version) was used in the sixth Pokémon movie, Jirachi Wishmaker (Japanese: Nanayo no Negai Boshi; literally Wishing Star of Seven Nights). Other notable songs include Hitotsubu no Tane ~Love the Earth~, Snowdrop, Jibun Shinjite and Mou Ichido Anata ni Aitai.
Hayashi has since recorded in both Japanese and Chinese, collaborating with Chinese instrumentalist Chen Min on the single, Tsubane ni Naritai.
