Jimmy O. Yang Tried to Teach His Father a Lesson about Acting: It Backfired

omg lol

[@jacobdejesus2998]

theyre the kind of parents to make a hella mean joke thats makes you cry then theyll ask you why your crying and beat your ass for crying.

[@earlnoli]

because Asians are realistic. Only 1 in 5000 succeed in Art and Culture types of work. Well granted, success in finance is difficult too... but if you have the brains for it (which most normal migrant capable Asians are), it is a matter of will rather than capability. Anyway going to pursue "dreams" are for the "rich". I guess when his dad got to America the dad was rich enough situationally to let their son go on a "problematic" arts and culture type of work. Only in places where poverty is prevalent it is clear for kids to strive hard in education like even in India ratio of men and women in STEM are almost proportional since goal is to earn rather than pursue "dreams". After you are rich enough to go to 1st world country you get to have the privilege for your kids to "fail" in art.

This proves his Dad is proud of him. If he thought it was a waste of time he wouldn’t be doing it. In fact, he proved to his Dad he should be doing something different than what he was doing. Jimmy definitely “won” over the top.

[@naddakeeps9964]

It's not pride it's ego. It's bullshit that a father's form of "pride" is to downplay and demean his son's accomplishments. And I feel it shows on Jimmy's face that it still effects him, even if he has accepted it.

[@LorienzoDeGarcia]

I won't lie, got a bit pissed reading this comment. Where was his dad then before he "made it"? Only put-downs, even when he's on CBS, and even when his father accepted that he "made it", he downplayed his son's struggle by saying "You did it, I must be able to, because it must've been EASY.", then proceeds to ride off his son's connections and existing reputation. And since older Asians are whole less-than-likely to be in the acting sphere because of the you must be 1. Doctor 2. Lawyer 3. Engineer or 4. Disgrace to family thing, there are probably shortage of older Chinese actors with a decent amount of confidence in Hollywood with a genuine authentic accent and that's an advantage to casting. Then becomes entitled and thinks suddenly he somehow can have theatre gigs with 500 people. All's well ends well, but his father wasn't a good supporter of his own son, but the first to be "proud" and capitalize on his son's success. You all laugh, but there's more pain in this than meets the eye. Even if Jimmy denies it, this is the reality of how a lot of Asian kids are treated by their parents.

[@jeanlundi2141]

You're out of your mind right? The problem with this sort of shitty parent behaviour is that society enables it ya know? This doesn't prove shit about his dad being proud of him.

[@somethingcreativeprobably5160]

@@LorienzoDeGarcia Because you're more likely to succeed as a doc or a lawyer or an engineer than an artist. It's not about not believing in your child it's about wanting them to have a successful life. You could be talented AF but still go unnoticed because.. luck.

[@daddyfeelit7543]

@@naddakeeps9964 If you were an Asian dad, especially if born before 1970s, and you took an interest in something that your son's interested in and you strongly opposed, it's the sign of recognition right there. Old Asian dads are patriarchal AF and show their love in the weirdest way possible.

[@bestieswithtesties]

@James Jarrett I mean it's an extremely common thing. It is not uncommon at all for one person to put in years of effort and hard work to become successful and once they do they can very easily catapult people around them right up to the top with them. A LOT of careers in the world, and acting especially, is like 30% skill and 70% just knowing the right people. Being close to someone already successful is 10x more likely to land you a successful job of your own rather than being someone extremely talented with no connections.

Just as a heads up to anybody curious - "Talk Show" IS what Stand-up is called in Chinese. 脫口秀 < It is a loan word from English for talk shows in general but also is used to cover stand-up. Especially because "Stand-up" doesn't really translate into anything directly that works well in Chinese.

One of JR best episodes! I know you can’t escape other topics but hope more fun and light stuff like this. Love JR!
