I always think it's really hard if you are Asian or Chinese to be really in Hollywood. There are not so many really great characters for you. ↗

It's not that I wanted to be an actor; it's that I didn't want to be a dancer! I was trained in traditional Chinese dance, and after working so hard it seemed unfair to just disappear into a group. ↗
