This surname Cuji seems to be of Spanish origin, but no Cuji are found in Spain, but in South America. This surname Cuji is closely similar to Japanese surname Kuji, but I don't think your surname Cuji is of Japanese origin. The name Cuji is no where to be found in Japan, but the name Kuji is quite common in Japan, which is probably the reason why many say it may be Japanese. The last name Cuji is mostly found in Ecuador. Similar last names I found is Cujilema, Cajilema, Cujilan, interestingly they are also mostly found in Ecuador. The name Cuji perhaps derived from "cují", but the meaning of the name I have not found yet. I have come across pictures of plants and trees while researching the name cují, and I also came across the name "El Cují", a place in Venezuela?. This surname Cuji is not found in Spain, perhaps of South American origin...
