Kenji Fujimoto
is the pen name of a Japanese chef who claimed that he was former North Korean leader Kim Jong-il's personal sushi chef from 1988 to 2001. Fujimoto published a memoir in 2003 entitled ''I was Kim Jong-il's Cook'', detailing many of his experiences with Kim Jong-il. Many people doubted the veracity of his claim. However, Fujimoto, contrary to the prevailing consensus of experts on North Korean politics, asserted that Kim Jong-un (who was relatively unknown at that time), rather than Kim Jong-nam, would be appointed as Jong-il's successor. Fujimoto's prediction proved true when Jong-un succeeded his father as Supreme Leader in December 2011.
A classified U.S. diplomatic cable from Tokyo, leaked by WikiLeaks, revealed that he was the best and often the sole source of North Korean information for the Japanese spy agency.〔("Cable leak: Japan has spy agency" ). ''The Japan Times''. February 22, 2011〕
==Arrival in North Korea==
Fujimoto first visited North Korea in 1982.〔Foster-Carter, Aidan (July 2, 2003). (Cook and tell: Another chef spills the beans ). ''Asia Times Online''.〕 Six years later, he became Jong-il's personal sushi chef on a salary of £45,000 a year,〔McCurry, Justin (March 18, 2004). (Kim Jong-il's chef spills the beans ). ''The Guardian''.〕 and was given two Mercedes cars.〔Watts, Jonathan (July 20, 2003). (Chef serves up Kim's life of sushi and orgy ). ''The Guardian''.〕 Soon after, he became Jong-il's companion; both men, according to Kenji, went shooting, riding and water-skiing together. He confirmed a widely believed rumour that Jong-il had a serious fall from his horse in 1992, breaking his collar bone and lying unconscious for several hours.〔
