Description
Shun Horie is a Japanese voice actor and singer born on May 25, 1993, in Osaka Prefecture, Japan. He is affiliated with the talent agency Raccoon Dog and is also a member of the music unit SparQlew. He is sometimes referred to by the nickname Horieru.

Horie's journey to becoming a voice actor was inspired by his admiration for fellow voice actor Wataru Takagi, particularly Takagi's ability to portray both adult and child characters within a single work. To pursue this goal, he enrolled in the Pro-Fit voice actor training school in October 2013 while also working part-time jobs to support his education. After graduating from the training school in October 2014 and later from university in March 2016, he became an official member of Pro-Fit. Following the closure of Pro-Fit's management division in March 2022, he moved to his current agency, Raccoon Dog.

In 2018, Horie received the Best New Actor Award at the 12th Seiyu Awards, a significant recognition of his emerging talent and versatility in the industry. His career as a singer began in earnest in 2017, and he started his professional music activities in 2019 as a vocalist for the unit SparQlew under the Kiramune music label.
