43-year-old man in Japan , known as the “Praising Uncle,” has turned his childhood dream of becoming a street performer into reality, all while paying off his gambling debts.
After his father suffered a stroke, he lost his home and was left homeless, unable to make mortgage payments.“Praising someone’s inner qualities right at the first meeting can feel insincere, so I often start with their appearance,” he said, explaining how he navigates his untraditional approach. One video on social media shows him praising a Chinese passerby, calling them “amazing” and asking if they were a “meinv” in Chinese, sparking attention online.
The “Praise Uncle” has visited 31 of Japan’s 47 prefectures and hopes to expand his service nationwide.
