Harry's support for positive bisexual representation makes me incredibly happy and proud to love him even more ❤

[@wasongabeatrice]

Asians not sexy? havent they seen Magnus Bane? epitome of sexiness

[@hannah-19.19]

Same thought haha xD

[@jayaunderwood2324]

[@briannathurston3907]

“your culture shouldn’t define if your sexy or not” MY GOSH HARRY SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK I LOVE THIS

[@geekymaddy1597]

Am i the only white person that thinks asian guys are hotter than most guys? is that not a common thought?

[@babyskullhead]

Harry is such a beautiful person inside and out. On top of that, he's intelligent, funny, motivated, and positive. How can one man be so perfect?

[@novnd]

And talented 🥰

[@kriscastillo2585]

Yes he is!! He is just amazing!

[@elymitchell9447]

"why does it matter? if these two people are happy they should be happy" did i mention that i love him with my whole entire heart? because i do

[@mirelle_oz]

Ya Boi bro I love you 😂

[@librh]

*whole assheart*

[@Foreverastronaut]

"Stubborn" - I guess Alec is still fighting for his (morning) kisses huh

[@erintran6974]

Harry’s amazing. He’s the reason I watched Shadowhunters in the beginning and I found my rep in Magnus Bane. So sad about the show ending too soon... I love Malec so much.

[@YaoiFan22]

I started watching Shadowhunters for Malec and it's the only reason I am still watching it.

[@LuciaFX24]

Lol. Literally the reason I started watching it. I want to see everything that involves him.

[@HizakiTwc]

oh I could hear him talk for hours ✨

[@sihayradiseocho]

Me too hahaha ❤ he's such a sweetheart 😍

[@gojofan123]

Lightwoane same😍😍

[@nanaserwa9894]

Harry is the best and he just understands everything and everyone the way they are

[@javieramolina7289]

He is a very beautiful person as much as inside and outside

[@ragan3907]

My god. This man is amazing.

[@wninxnx]

I just want to say I love love him so much. The way he talked about malec and magnus' compassion and how at the end of the day it's just watching two people falling in love and be happy. And talking about lgbtq, representations and etc. He really is the best. I love this interview so much!

[@laurenhuston4584]

Absolutely LOVE this interview! The way he speaks about these things are so insightful. I'm so thankful we have him as Magnus Bane.

[@fejohnson]

wtf he's gorgeous AND SO SMART???? IM

[@oceaneleibold3945]

He is the best human being on this planet ❤❤ For every body that does not think that way, just shut up !

[@jayaunderwood2324]

Hes tied.... with Matt. I love them both

[@oceaneleibold3945]

@@jayaunderwood2324 of course ! 😍😍

[@kimma508]

Amen!

[@loreleibodenbach7418]

Literally his words are so powerful in so many ways and how supportive he is to everything. He is preaching to the choir😍😭. I love him so much

[@jaystoran9211]

I love how he shared his opinions without imposing them to you... He talks so good. 👌

[@tanyabhaskar2888]

gosh he's so well spoken. loved watching this

[@mangeuse8512]

I like him so much as Magnus Bane. He did a great job as Magnus Bane!

[@eileenpizarro1558]

It breaks my heart to hear Harry talk about Shadowhunters in past tense. 💔I wish it was still on cuz 3 seasons is not nearly enough Malec . 😭 I miss them so much. Harry and Matthew Daddario where wonderful together. There are so many other shows on FreeForm that should be gone but Shadowhunters is not one of them. It sucks!

[@pannazsargo]

Am I the only one who finds Asians the most attractive and sexy?! I mean... Have you SEEN Magnus Bane?! That man holds my heart

[@gloriaval1944]

the people that disliked this video were so excited about Harry's answers that they accidentally clicked the wrong button

[@scarlettechanelle1705]

He's beautiful!

[@shanmugakanakasabapathi1188]

Beautiful, insightful and open minded. Harry shum Jr everyone!

[@priyadharshinikannan995]

[@fatil8336]

How I love to watch this kind of interviews. And how I love Harry! Such a smart guy! I am so proud of him, I need to see more of his work.

[@Pequeno_Bolo]

Harry should do more interviews, I love seen him and hearing his voice so deeply.

[@dr.saharbabaali1981]

Harry Shum Jr. You portrayed the Magnus Bane so great that words come short to describe it. And the chemistry with Matt was so cool and good and ohhhh wirds again...😁😁😁

[@jhanezkypostrano838]

[@saralynnschwalbauch9140]

[@jennak6462]

[@dani010203stor]

Never occured to me that Magnus Bane wasn't sexy

[@mzumno]

How can you think that Asians aren't sexy, doesn't matter if man or women but in my opinion asians ARE sexy as f*ck! I mean look at Harry Shum Jr himself xD He is the definition of hot and sexy!

[@nishantig2043]

[@nishantig2043]

Harry Love you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@nessa9732]

[@holyhour772]

When he says Asians arent sexy... me- Have you ever looked in a mirror?

[@hiphopman610]

I wish they continued this show. It was really good

[@tabitasiqueira2393]

Harry, sempre tão eloquente e tão sábio. Espero ver esse rosto e esse talento em muitas produções.

[@thandoluhlesithole965]

[@nishantig2043]

Miss you so mach

[@aleciar2288]

Love Harry. And Jesus take the wheel.

[@sarahdocarmo]

por acaso esse homem tem algum defeito? porque eu ainda não achei nenhum

[@suleuzundereblog]

Sesine ve konuşmasını o kadar seviyorum ki saatlerce dinleyebilirim 🙈😍

[@lil-mj5ed]

Why does Shadowhunters say Disney under it

[@Unqualifiedmedicalperson]

speed bump because they own the network that broadcasts it (Freeform)

[@Connie.b69]

❤

[@chun_lisfii3596]

His eyebrows are less and less sparse. Why?

[@nicky9790]

I feel he should join Cantomando on yt :D

[@ThatBrunetteFromCali]

I’m sorry but if anyone thinks Asians aren’t sexy needs to square up with me

[@jhlords2]

I can not have enoghth of this show the end has no meaning !
