Worst Asian Ever: Ken Jeong

Ken Jeong (정강조) #WAE

   Ok, maybe he's not THE worst, but I'm not a big fan of Dr. Kendrick Kang-Jo Jeong

   I have nothing against Ken personally. I understand how difficult it is for Asian Americans to make it in Hollywood.

   What disappoints me is the whiny, annoying, obnoxious, weird characters he always plays & it's because of these roles that he is one of the most successful & prominent Asian American actors of this decade.

   I know people gotta pay their bills & if Ken didn't play these roles, casting would always find someone else.

   The rationalization is always the same, it's a first step, foot in the door. First we play slave, pimp, mugger, ho & that paves the way for future generations to play the hero, president, cowboy.

Chester Ming played by Kenneth Choi

Born: October 20, 1971 in Chicago, Illinois, USA

   Growing up in the suburbs of Chicago, Choi desperately dreamed of becoming an actor. Against his family's wishes, Choi left Purdue college to pursue his dream. He literally ran away from home for 5 years to train and study before moving to Los Angeles. Once in L.A., Choi hit the ground running. He was cast in an independent film during his first week and finished the year with appearances in 6 television series.

   Chester Ming is an outstanding Asian-American character more because of what he isn’t.
