He began his career as a model, but successfully made the transition to acting, becoming one of the most regularly visible presences in Japanese media. Abe graduated from Chuo University in 1988 with a degree in Electrical Engineering.
Abe's model career began during his college days. By winning "Shueisha 3rd Nonno Boyfriend Award" in 1985, his image as a charismatic model was established and appeared exclusively for "Nonno" and "Men's Nonno" magazines. In his last year of college, Abe made his debut in acting with the movie "Haikara-san ga Toru". His first TV drama leading role came in 1990. Abe achieved a breakthrough in 1994 by winning the Japanese Professional Movie Special Award for "Kyoju Luger P08", and one other work. In his 30-year long career, Abe has starred in many series and movies, and the most notable works include "TRICK" series, "Dragon Zakura", "Kekkon Dekinai Otoko", "Shinzanmono" series, "Thermae Romae", and multiple works directed by Koreeda Hirokazu - "Still Working" and "After the Storm".
