Hi, I'm Hee Cheong Lee and very glad to meet you. I'm a medical practitioner, a computer programmer and an entrepreneure by occupation. I was born on a snowy day of February 22 in Japan as the youngest child of a Korean family living in Kyoto.
I love Kyoto so much. I was born in Kyoto, and have been growing up here in Kyoto. There are lots of temples and shrines, each is very traditional and spiritual. In all of them, I like Hushimi Inari Taisha most, because I would pay a first visit of the year to the shrine since my university student days and each memory brings me back good old memories and it makes me in a very nostalgic feeling, like "Huu, I struggled to attain various things at that time, so present myself is.....". Actually, I was a little depressed at that time because of uncertain hopes for attainments. But now at this age of 32, I gradually began to feel I attained more or less, so this leads to my nostalgic feelings now. I was born in a Korean family so I have two name, one is the Japanese name and the other is the Korean Name. But I had decided on the way to use Korean name because I think my Korean family name is more popular in all the countries of the world.

My family is very rich in love I have been accepting from them while I was growing up, which I think is leading to my friendly personality. My father was once a craftsman who made a traditional Japanese kimono clothes in Kyoto, later he quit the job and became an entrepreneur. He was at that time quite enough ambitious to decide that and I think being balanced by the warm-heart that characterizes my mother as a nice homemaker. She said just after she gave birth to me then she looked outside through the window, and she saw it's snowing; Snowing is very rare in Kyoto and this sight have been staying vividly as one of the most moving memories in her life, I have three older sisters and each lives in Nagoya, Tokyo and Kyoto prefecture respectively in Japan. The eldest sister Jin Yumi is of an outgoing personality and always makes a lot of friends. She is a kind of very strong woman and when I was just a little boy she sometimes protected me from naughty guys around me. She likes playing sports so much especially badminton then she won the championship in the prefecture's badminton tournament! My second sister Hee Daeri is very good at studying and in fact she loves it. She took a "Japanese old bar exam" with the known lowest passing rate in Japan and because of her passion in studying she marvelously passed the exam. Sometimes I wanted to be like my sister but I always take in consideration that studying is not all of my passion. I'd rather enjoy spending my time in business activities and outdoors in nature instead of sitting and studying at my desk. My third sister Jwa Hwaja is very good at getting along with others leading to making a lot of friends. She makes many korean friends living in Japan and sometimes introduced them to me and we share a party with them. All in all, having fun with them is mostly a good experience for me then I feel lucky when she does that. As for me, I was born on February 22 in a small town named Oyamazaki in Kyoto prefecture. And when I was at age 5, I moved to Uji city and went to a kindergarten in the same prefecture. At the time of age 6, I went to elementary school in the same city. I'm often deemed I was diligent in my boyhood days by a lot of people probably because of my current profession, but actually it was exactly the opposite XD. In my first year and second year in the primary school I never did my homework and was kept after school but always ran away while the teacher was looking the other way(Laugh). The teacher at that time became somewhat a legendary person in my memory. She is a very tender-hearted woman and I always think I'd like to meet her again. When I became a third year student I was no longer able to run away after school; She was assigned to another elementary school and another teacher came to our class who was very very strict and gave a call to my mother at night whenever I ran away. During my 11 years old I had my throat operated on for thyroglossal duct cyst in University of Kyoto Hospital leading to breeding my dream to become a medical practitioner. After the experience of the operation, I started to study 6 months prior to the entrance exam and I was accepted by Takatsuki Junior and Senior High School in Osaka and spent 6 years commuting between Kyoto and Osaka although it took more than an hour by train. During my junior and senior high school days, I put the accent on sports activities and I made several memories that are probably never forget all my life; Shortly after getting into the school I began to do Shaolin Kempo as a member of combative sports club and had a good time there. I feel now this is one of my unforgettable memories since the members are my dear old friends that now I never see them since we separated after graduating and in my mind these days reflect probably one of the happiest years because there seemed no worries at that time and it was as opposed to now. When I was age 14 I began to go to the gym almost everyday to train myself along with Kempo and I was ranked third in the physical strength ranking in the gym, and this is probably my first time that I realized hard working brings good results. Cooperating with my friends in practicing Kempo, I became a black belter at the age of 16, and at 17 age, I took part in the physical strength contest in the school cultural festival and I got the first prize in the hand grip strength ranking. These memories are unforgettable events in my school days. Then after graduating from senior high school, I changed my way; I was completely a sports player by the time of graduation but I became a studying player after the graduating. Three years studying period for passing the entrance exam then I got into a university-cum-medical school named Kansai Medical University located in Osaka.
| While I was in the university I pursued the study of informatics by means
of self study going along with the study of medicine as well, and I was
introduced on computer books more than 70 times during my university life. (On the computer magazines)(Japanese) |
Then, I began to earn school expenses as a computer programmer, this period filled with sufferings arose from loneliness of sitting in front of the PC alone for hours, later this memory led to rise my feeling of the hatred of doing PC. |
But I think I had the only good thing that I got from this lonely experience, it was that led to arise my feeling of getting some computer qualifications and then later I got a certification of Microsoft Certified Associate Application, Microsoft Certified Associate Platform, Microsoft Certified Associate Security, Microsoft Certified Associate Database and I was certified as Microsoft Certified Associate Master and then finally I passed the exam and I got a certification of Microsoft Certified Professional in 2008.
| After I graduated from university I took part in the matching program for Japanese residential doctors and I was matched to University of Tokyo Hospital. Then I took the National Medical Practitioners Qualifying Examination and passed it and I became a residential doctor in University of Tokyo Hospital but I quit just only a month later because I began to feel the hospital didn't suit me and I transfered to another hospital in Kyoto called Daini Okamoto General Hospital. |
| After a while, I quit the hospital and became a freelance doctor mainly undertook medical checkups of many Japanese companies.Then I undertook more than 200 companies' medical checkups and saw more than 20000 patients from 2008 to 2009, and I got certified as Japan Medical Association Certified Industrial Physician and established a medical company in 2009. |
In 2010, I went to Toronto to see my friends and in this refreshing environment I planned to come to think up new ideas about our new businesses. Indeed, my next aim is to establish a law action company with Hee Daeri. But now she is very busy taking care of current her duty of Type B Hepatitis infections lawsuit against Japan country itself. She likes getting into a group and she is a member of the counsel, which I can't understand because I don't like entering a group.
