Ep. 8 | Being an Online Celebrity in Japan vs USA ft. Kemio

Kemio is a mixed Japanese Persian-Italian model, TV personality, and social media sensation from Tokyo. His parents both unfortunately passed away when he was 2 tragically in a car accident, so he was raised by his two Japanese grandparents, and told he was "full Japanese" rather than half Japanese until age 18. Originally getting his start from Vine, he was one of the original social media personalities in Japan that successfully made the jump from internet to mainstream stardom. Listen to him talk about his come up in Japan, and what it has been like learning English and seeing Japan from a different perspective after moving to the USA (New York). Follow kemio below!
