Takata Mashiho, known simply as Mashiho, is a Japanese singer, dancer, and former member of TREASURE (트레저). He graduated from Hinode High School.

Before debuting, he appeared in AKMU's "Spring of Winter" music video.

There were rumors about a possible new group being planned by YG Entertainment (YG 엔터테인먼트), and the agency began scouting several candidates. However, instead of having them debut immediately, they created a new survival competition, "YG Treasure Box", in order to have them ready to debut. The original plan was to have a 13-member group (called TREASURE 13) but split up into two separate lineups, TREASURE and MAGNUM. He was ultimately chosen as part of the 6-member lineup MAGNUM. But, in early 2019, Ha Yoon Bin decided to leave in order to pursue a career as a solo artist, so the plans changed and both lineups were merged into the final 12-member product, keeping the name TREASURE.

He made his debut in August 2020 as the group's main dancer and vocalist with their first single album, "The First Step: Chapter One". The album reached the #1 spot on the Circle Album Chart (formerly known as Gaon Album Chart), and was certified platinum by the Korea Music Content Association (KMCA), becoming their first-ever certification. They were labeled as the "fastest-growing K-pop act in the world" by X (formerly Twitter), and they were the only South Korean male group to be included in the Forbes Korea Power Celebrity 40 (Rising Star) ranking (that also included girl groups AESPA and STAYC).

However, in May 2022, he went on hiatus due to health concerns and never returned to the group's lineup. In November of that year, YG announced his departure from TREASURE and also from the agency.

He made his debut as a solo artist in June 2024 with the digital single "Just The 2 Of Us". He is currently not represented by any agency.
