Default Bare root asian pear fruiting in first year

I planted a bare root asian pear without much pruning (removed 2 lower
branches out of a total 5) back in March. It didn't grow very well as
I don't see much side branches coming out but the leaves are big and healthy.
3 weeks ago it starts flowering (for the 2nd time, 1st was in April) and
now I see 4 pieces of small fruits. What should I do about them? Shall I
remove them to prevent them from drawing too much nutritions or let them
fruit and taste my luck?
