Sandra Oh is Korean not Chinese!!!!!!
I don't understand how you can cast Sandra Oh, who is clearly Korean and not Chinese, in this role.
There is a part in the movie where the casting director is saying they can't cast her because she is not Filipino, and then tells her that they will have a role for her for a Chinese part because she is Chinese. She also says that there are only two experienced Chinese actors in town, Sandra Oh's character being one. Perhaps this is a comment on how they couldn't find a Chinese American actress they felt was good enough to play the role, but then really they just didn't look hard enough. I even remember a time in Grey's Anatomy when Sandra Oh gets mad at someone for thinking she is Chinese. It is shocking to me that people seem to think all Asian people look alike and should be able to play interchangable roles, as evidenced by the casting and subsequent failure of Memoirs of a Geisha, which could have made lots more money and not alienated both China and Japan if it had simply cast Japanese actors for Japanese characters.
