"When I was a child I was feeling myself as a nothing”.

Kanemoto Eiseki was in elementary school in Japan when he was bullied for the first time because he is a Korean. “For a Japanese, I’m a Korean but for Korea, I’m a traitor,” he said.

Eiseki is 61 years old, working as a Chinese food chef in the buffet restaurant in the Kamenoi Hotel since 2007. He’s been cooking Chinese food for 43 years that he knew food makes people happy.

Kanemoto loves to spend time with APU students to support them and to teach something that he couldn’t do.

“Believing in yourself leads to your success, it doesn’t matter where you are from,” he said.
