Eric Nam had revealed in a previous article that he had established himself in school, but it appears this was not without some hardships in the beginning.
On KBS 2TV's 'Happy Together 3' on December 3, Eric Nam said, "I went to a famous private school in America. I was 15 at the time, and my friends' first cars were foreign ones like Benz and having an elevator and swimming pool inside their homes were a given. That was the average level for the students at the school. I had a lot of friends who lived well. I was a student who got in difficultly.
"Even at the time I entered [the school], I was the only Asian. The kids spit on my face. I was unable to communicate with them well because they were so wealthy. It was hard for me. At first, I simply bore it. I didn't think there was a point in fighting."
