here are some tidbits about what happened courtesy of franniewei @ Asianfanatics:
*In the play Musashi, two days before the performance, Shun doesn't memorize all his lines yet so he asks Fujiwara Tatsuya to come to the rehearsal earlier and if one of them misses his lines the other one will help the other.
* In Crows Zero II, before shooting the fight scene between Housen and Suzuran, Shun and Yabe gathered all the casts for a "nomikai" (drinking party) for everyone to get to know each other and get along before the fight scenes. There was a time when Shun, Yamada Yusuke and the other guy from Housen with long hair went out to drink and Shun wanted to go home already but he didn't want to go home alone so he asks the two to continue their drinking in his house. In the end, the two felt asleep in his place. The next day, Shun left early for a job out of town and did not come home for three days. He thought that two would have gone home and just left the keys of his place but when he came home he saw Yamada Takayuke in the shower. He was surprised by what he saw but didn't mind it all, afterall they're good buddies.
* In Jounetsu Tairiku (200 days in Shun's life), the host complimented Shun for his endurance with all the things he had gone through during the busiest times of his carreer. His manager had once cried asking Shun to atleast quit for a while but he was unstoppable in doing his performances.
* In his ANN show, the host enjoys listening to his radio show especially during those times when Shun's voice sound tired yet he consistently amuse his listeners in his live show.
* Shun's high school days: The host visited Shun's school and talked with his homeroom teacher in 2nd year, Arai-sensei. Sensei told him that Shun always sleeps in her class. Shun said that he can't stand sitting on his desk for an hour and eversince he really doesn't like school that much. He doesn't like watching shows for longer hours such as stage plays. But he loves acting on stage coz he said it's fun.
* Shun's baseball team in high school: Shun wrote a message on the board in their baseball club office and even if he's no longer in the team, there are times when he would join his team mates and hang around in the restaurant "Sukhothai" run by their coach.
* Arai-sensei's letter to Shun: At the end of the show, the host read a letter from Shun's teacher while Shun stayed in the backstage. Shun was teary-eyed listening to his teacher's letter. Arai-sensei told Shun's story of quitting school after his second year and pursue his acting carreer. Shun attended his class graduation ceremony and told his teacher that he would have wanted to graduate together with his classmates but it was too late.
