a Korean to play a Chinese


when will Hollywood stop using Koreans to play Chinese characters? believe it or not we're not all the same.

Haven't stop yet, look at ABC's Fresh Off the Boat. I don't have a problem with that specific, but more so that the Asians still don't have enough roles out there where folks could play whatever their skills and look could take them.

That's as intelligent as saying someone of French ethic heritage should not play an Italian, or someone of English heritage should not play an Irishman. This is not like asking a white man to play a black man.

Sounds like you're more insecure about your own heritage, or maybe that you just don't like Koreans.

white people complain about actors doing terrible accents all the time. what does it have to do with insecurity?
