the whole having to put the “south” part in front of “asian” just to be included reaaaally hit home. it’s always been really annoying not being considered asian, especially when other asians don’t even recognize that either. i’m so in love w/ this series right now!!

[@athrongthongru9745]

I can kinda relate. As an Indian from Northeast (most of the people from northeast part if India traces its origin to Tibetan or Mongolian race and thus have typical "asian" features) we have to call ourselves as Northeast-Indians to be recognised as Indians. Isnt the world messed up?

[@user-cl7cl4qj9c]

yet the word Asian was made by white people because they didnt bother to learn the differences between a huge ass continent with 60 percent of world population. Its like if Asians "discovered" afro europe, and decided to call africans and europeans all afropeans, and the afropeans wondee why the europeans and africans tend to dissassociate

[@dere4022]

Joe Jitsukawa way to go with your negative stereotype of Asians, Joe. Good to see your channel is getting smaller and smaller and how you are becoming irrelevant.

[@xstoofpeer]

De Re It's true and sad that a lot of Asian comedians feel the need to be self-deprecating and make jokes about stereotypes. But you don't have to wish for an Asian entertainer to become irrelevant when he isn't even THAT toxic.

[@dere4022]

tyler what is more important to you? His content or his Asian ethnicity? It is a sad day that these Asian comedians can’t make it without playing into these negative Asian stereotypes. His content is toxic to the Asian community so the faster he becomes irrelevant, the better.

[@nevermind8064]

As an Indian American who goes to an all white school, when the 5 Indian and Chinese kids in our entire grade all grouped up and sat together one day, I realized we relate on so many things things and laughed over them for hours. We came together as the only Asians in our entire school and ended up bonding over our cultural similarities rather than dividing ourself based on differences. I also learn so much about their culture and vice versa. We all are in a similar place in America. Socially, politically, and economically

[@EllyXia]

This is my favorite episode so far - Asian hate against other Asians annoys me so much... all of us are facing similar struggles, we don‘t need to create any more problems why don‘t we just help each other out instead of looking down on each other! ❤️

[@PigStuffy]

Elly Xia I'm all for this and as the modern more progressive generation come forward it will be better. Still in China some of my older relatives still and probably will never get over things like the Nanjing Massacre.

[@uchihasage189]

I agree, asian unity is very important. Not just among different Asian ethnicities, but both genders need to be united as well to address asian problems as a whole. Asian males and females both encounter negative stereotypes and struggles #asiansunited

[@EllyXia]

PigStuffy77 totally agree... Looking at the history of Asia it‘s a lot harder for older generations to overcome grudges and prejudices, without doubt But if you look at it holistically, especially with all the Asians on a global scale who are all being discriminated against, I think that Asians have to first come to terms with each other - we Asians can‘t possibly expect others to not discriminate us, when we can‘t even stop discriminating/hating each other

[@nyuklyncchung7744]

Elly Xia 的时候我们这边没有了吗哦亲戚啊啊是啊了吗你是不是在哪里呢了

[@PigStuffy]

Elly Xia very well said! I definitely find the Asians who are born and raised in culturally diverse countries (America, Canada etc) are way more open to the idea comparitevely to homogenous countries (China, Korea, Japan etc). We Asians outside of Asia are already a minority why minoritize ourselves more in such a way? #asiansunited

[@LostAlienThe]

I love this episode. Its so cool to see South and South East Asian representation in the Asian dialogue. Also nice to see a Blasian character because Blasians are also very much generally excluded from being Asian.

This is gonna be lost in the sea of comments, but I just wanna say how happy and grateful that you guys exist making these shorts/films. As an Asian-American that lives in a predominantly Hispanic community and knowing almost one to three Asians personally in my life, these videos help me create an arguably connected feeling towards my culture/nationality. Not just a feeling, but also a conversation that has always been on my mind like if how I behave, whether it is within my family or socially, would be considered "Asian"; which has been stated in many of your videos. I've been a fan since the first season of wong fu weekends and I've never put yall down for a second. I can't wait till I see what all of you working in Wong Fu will become in the next 5 to 10 years! Much love from a Filipino in Arizona

This show is really interesting. I appreciate them trying to touch on Afro-Asian intercultural relationships. I'd like to see more shows that depict the relationship between different Asian nationalities and Black folx and cultural exchanges. Contrary to popular belief, the Black community isn't as united as we want to believe we are, particularly pertaining to issues of Black immigration from African and Caribbean countries and also having different histories of racism in the United States, the Caribbean, and Latin America.

[@zeewann]

@MATHA NOSHTO-MAN Because in America - it does? Why are you running away from the reality of history?

[@76reliant]

@@zeewann only in identity politics...The experiment of democracy has brought all groups together, for the most part successfully...It's the George Soros of the world who wants everyone fighting each others so called---GROUP...aka Identity Politics....Most white Americans could care less who comes into the country, as long as they aren't trying to blow the place up....I think that's a pretty fair deal...

[@dina8288]

I agree that blacks in the usa aren't as united as the video would make it seem, but i think that for many black people around the world there is still a strong legacy of "Pan-Africanism" present in various parts of the continent as well as in the western hemisphere as well as the fact that black americans historically speaking are an incredibly mixed group of people, geographically speaking (not just talking about the original 7 locations that enslaved black people came from), although yes there are tensions that can occur between immigrants and non-immigrants (and separate histories and cultures should be respected). Also while black immigrants come from a different culture, blacks in the united states are still overwhelmingly descendants of enslaved people so that "assimilation" for many black immigrant children means in many ways becoming black american. On the other hand for lots of people in Asia while I'm sure it changes in America for Asian-Americans, the tensions are real and acute. I live in Japan where there is a persistent anti-Korean sentiment that should be considered to be equal to white on black racism in the united states, especially when thinking about the Korean minority that lives here according to local racial justice activists i know. The history of Japanese colonialism (and other tensions) make for complex and very real divisions imo.

[@brianlee1478]

@MATHA NOSHTO-MAN because everything in our American experience involves combating & overcoming racism. Consider yourself privileged that you are ignorant to this, then take responsibility and educate yourself.

[@alyssadyer4096]

Yes, I was gonna comment that the black diaspora could use learning this too. I often see african americans excluding black people from the islands or latin american countries. And then there are Africans who look down on any black people who aren't from africa.

[@IHeartTheArt]

Finally some South Asian represent on Wong Fu!!! Felt good. Here's to more in the future hopefully!

[@bailinhuang]

[@abeeshake96]

This is still the most significant South Asian role to date if i remember correctly. So not an insignificant thing by any means

[@IHeartTheArt]

[@IndustryCardin]

Where viet

[@Power_Cosmic27]

There is not much south asian representation on wong fu, and you can't blame them for it exactly because of the subject matter of this video. They include us a little but how many South Asians are inclusive of East asians or pacific asians? Actually there is not much South Asian representation from America on KZbin period. South Asians also need to get up and start talking about topics like these and show solidarity with other people. The problem is we're too busy fighting about North vs. South Indian or Indian vs Pakistan or Punjabi vs Gujrati or Telugu vs. Tamil etc.

Again, I make the observation that no group makes sketches/productions that manages to capture the perspective of the modern Asian-American with all its subtle cultural identities without ever over-generalizing. It's the kind of quality you'd expect from a much more successful brand, which begs the question - why isn't Wong Fu Productions a bigger deal?

[@shantanusrivastava6131]

James Li I KNOWWW! It's so infuriating that shitty channels get famous but high production value, amazing, non-sellout channels like wong fu take so much time to gain traction, and honestly that reduces my faith in the world by the minute

[@spencer5028]

its cringy basic b*tch level SJW cultural marxist drivel, kinda sad that there are actually EAST Asian-Americans that buy into this... then again "antifa" is populated by trust funder white kids so I guess every community has its sjw loser populations

[@Un1234l]

The acting isn't up to par. The script and dialogue delivery are cheesy and heavy-handed, even if at their core they would be fine if better acted. WFP sketches still feel campy for the most part, very grassroots which has its charm but not on the level that makes them more acclaimed. It's like how CW shows are commonly derided as campy, despite them making millions due to history and existing network connections.

[@the.name.is_kara]

Ok, this just opened my eyes. I am African, East African, and this just made me realise how united Africans can get. A good example is the music, we pick elements from each other every now and then, even the dancing, the food.. and where opportunities rise for one of ours to shine, we celebrate them as a continent, generally. And I would say the same about African Americans, regardless of ethnicity, they usually join hands and stand as a single unit and that has promoted a general African, or African American culture which I think is a great way of sharing one's culture. Start with the general and break it down the more you get into it. Great message, great video.

Well kinda, it's not really like that anymore, i live in Africa we only unite with songs but then fight over the dances, we barely support each other and label each other as "foreigners", we kill each other and that just leads other stronger continents or countries take our fortunes, i think the uniting thing is more w African Americans coz they dunno where in Africa they came from or just arent Africans, Africa is just like the Asians fighting except we're poorer

[@alaasusername]

The fact y’all consider north africans as being JUST AS AFRICAN even though so many are very light there is what makes me really happy.

It's sad how all asians can and normally get grouped under one name.

We have dialects and different slang - but that's another topic. I love learning more about cultural differences and i /hope/ this will give me a better understand beyond my own heritage

[@PigStuffy]

tooearlyforapril yup umbrella terms happen to simplify everything. Sometimes it's just easier that way although less inclusive. Fun fact in Mainland china there are 56 different ethnic groups and there are over 200 chinese dialects spoken.

[@ch_rryleaf]

PigStuffy77 with how american culture is changing and becoming more enlightened, not counting the whole trump and... Entire political landscape, i would hope we wouldnt need umbrella terms. But like you said, it is easier. And i didnt know about Mainland china being so diverse! A fact for yourself, Mexico has 68 indigenous and 350 dialects- spanish being the overall language since colonization. We have an amount of diversity that is hard to track, since it is so mixed!

[@PigStuffy]

Thanks for the information! I never knew how diverse Mexico was either! It's crazy how small our own little world bubble is when there is so much more in the world on such a vast scale. I think umbrella terms are OK however to not be used ignorantly...ideally lol and I hope more people to seek on learning and admitting their ignorance.

[@spencer5028]

Spencer Austin-Martin not sure who you're responding to in your reply since neither of us stated 'asiant American's in the specific comment thread. Personally I'm not American, I'm Canadian. And I don't usually use the term Asian Canadian for myself. Maybe 'Chinese, born in Canada' but that's a mouthful

[@luapchalos]

The saddest but best part about the roundtable inspirational party talk, is that it should be applied to humans as a whole. Human beings have become so unreasonably divided over things that, grand scheme, don't matter. "Under the stars, under the heavens, there is but one family". Of course not to take away anything from what you're doing and saying here, it's just that, I don't know, it's unfortunate that we have to have these talks within minority groups because the majority is so used to ignoring and rejecting the sentiment.

[@pyrobooby]

[@bakesabundant2028]

This is quite accurate. I've seen that chinese americans tend to actually be good at bridging the gap between the different asian americans and lumping them all as asian, not in a bad way but more like a unified way. Where was the Vietnamese, Malay, Singapore, Thai, Indonesian, Cambodian, and Japanese representation in the board room though? ;) JK I get the jist of it. No harm no foul. :) Entertaining series so far, doing a very good job at sharing some other wise very sensetive topics. This series, so far gets good positive discussions going and more awareness ! Positive reviews all around so far for this Yappie series from me!!

[@edbrann5768]

I noticed Benson in the conference room with no speaking part. He could have been playing a Vietnamese, Malay, Singaporean, Cambodian, or Japanese. Take your pick.

[@bakesabundant2028]

Perhaps Benson represents all of the missing asians (in the boardroom) all in one person. As it would be difficult to cast every single asian type in one boardroom, probably due to time constraints on film. =)

It's true that the black community has a stronger bound because its shared tragic history in America.

Hami Hoax so true, east asian get the they all the same thing. Africans are just wondering when people will know that Africa is a country but a continent with many countries.

White people still see Asia as a monolith. While us Asians see Asia as very diverse and in conflict with eachother. And since black people came to the US a lot more years ago and were forced into slavery, that also forced them to abandon the African part of their culture.

[@shanayekh9345]

It’s very rare for people to understand the full complexity of the African Diaspora. There are people from Africa (54 countries and 11 official languages FYI), the Caribbean, and let’s not forget our Afro-Latinx brothers and sisters. As much as we have this common thread of slavery and oppression, we are not a monolith and have a countless number of differences. Hope to see that reflected more often!

[@indie1act]

My country, South Africa, has 11 official languages on its own - way more official languages than that on our continent.

[@AngieMahalKitaLa]

Great episode!! Love how yall addressed how even though we're asian/pacific we're also very "divided" something that we really need to work on if we want things to change tbh

[@josephestepa9268]

Good episode! The series is getting stronger. I liked the writing in this!

[@he3un]

As a Korean, I must admit that I did relate to David... 😔

[@merrittpalmer4349]

heheheheh

[@savannamist3595]

Aaaaaaahhhh it’s great!!! Can’t wait for next week. The issue of Asians being greatly diversified because of different ethnic backgrounds really struck a chord. We lack unity and that is something the African American had a lot of. Sometimes I feel like Asia should be divided up into North, South, West, and East since there’s way to many groups of people.

[@shruthimaniyodath7755]

I'm loving this series. Y'all are so talented! Also, Will Jay's "Leading Man" at the end was a pleasant surprise.💜

[@jesssummersxoxo]

Really enjoyed this episode! Glad to see you guys raising awareness on Asian community overseas! 😊

[@a_real_one2000]

This series keeps getting interesting. Andrew journey in carving out an active role in living they life he wants. Top notch series yet again.

[@sozen360]

This was the best episode so far IMO. Got to see some problem solving and initiative along with some funny dialogue. Great job

[@AE-ld9ck]

sozen360 I have to agree, I mean this episode seemed like a different series altogether (in a nice way). The transitions, and a big improvement in the writing. I was waiting for the comedic moments to be delivered in a more confident way, and this is definitely a more positive step, in my opinion. 😊

[@sayjaibao01188]

sozen360 Seriously, this was by far the best episode! Everything was interwoven so beautifully and i really liked the pacing. Never once did I feel, i wanted it to end. Like i wanted more! I could see the potential character development of the side characters! If only there were more seasons? :-)

[@mianmian9763]

Omg support!! Please keep doing this high quality content!! We need this !

[@Yinyueify]

Love this episode so much!! Thank you guys so much for this series...You guys hit so many points that are hard to explain in words. I really mean it when I want every Asian American to see this.

[@kayno9167]

Yesss this is everything! It’s so relatable and it’s so real and so true! I cannot with these series! It’s amazing

[@beapableo5860]

loving the ENCOURAGING Asian speech.. PREACHHHHHH!!!!!

[@Bopachu22]

As a SouthEast Asian Blasian, this episode hits home and what’s been in my mind my entire life. WONG FU YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING ❤️❤️❤️

[@jessicajeun9195]

That korean guy cracked me up because as a korean it was so relatable😂

[@EFlame01]

This has to be the best episode yet. Good dialogue and clear message from the main and supporting cast. And I liked the story. Looking forward to the next episode

[@obviouslygregg]

Each episode is better than the previous one

[@daniha7584]

my favorite episode so far. this highlighted one of my struggles and pet peeves. thank you for mentioning that we should all set aside our differences and unite together!

[@deconso11]

I've only just seen these today and I'm actually so gassed for every episode. So hype

[@monayousuf9681]

I think this video brought up some great topics like being inclusive and working together as Asians. Another important thing is when the dance teacher said that Middle Eastern and Russian people are not considered as Asians. I would like to disagree with that because I know many Middle Easterners that do identify as Asian. This mostly stems from similar cultural background to many South Asians and also being part of the continent of Asia. However, they are not really recognized or acknowledged as part of this heritage month. Overall, I do really like this show and totally routing for its success!!

[@AE-ld9ck]

Mona Yousuf Agreed. I hope Phil can incorporate that in the future. In previous comments on Yappie, people were commenting that since West Asian (or Middle Eastern), and Russian’s skin color can be lighter that they don’t count as Asian because they can look like they’re just “white people” (i.e. just a skin color without a culture). It’s annoying, especially since I have east Russian and northwest Asian in my (immediate) ancestry. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Oh well, hopefully next time? ✌🏻

[@mmfong297]

Only Europe recognizes Middle Eastern as Asians or Central Asians. East Asian looking Russians or Eskimos are grouped as "Native Americans" in the US.

[@lacoreanita]

lololo the korean guy as a korean I laughed out loud at the korean pride thing they touch on in these videos. so true.

[@shumalek3497]

i love this show so much! thanks for creating a show about asians discussing asian topics whilst keeping it interesting. can't wait for episode four!

[@appleseater2667]

Love it! thank you Wong Fu production!

[@katiejames8164]

Omg, I'm really loving this series!!!! Also love that you used a Will Jay song!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@joannj2075]

Jjfamsquad 25 south Asian

[@aleesham7763]

Yeh! It’s sad that we have to put south in front of Asian to be excepted by other People

[@sayjaibao01188]

Jjfamsquad 25 yes, you are our people too.

[@blooming_flower9644]

Only Turkish, Persian and Arabish is left 😂😂😂

[@z.abbasi9788]

This is content. THIS IS AMAZING!!! You guys deserve sooo much more recognition. I’ve been watching your videos since the early days of your channel and your content has only gotten better.

[@judoxx8877]

Thank you for the series I didn’t know I needed. Very informative and real!!! Well done!!!

[@KawaiiHarajukuBunny]

I cringed sooo hardwhen she said "chinese friends"😂

[@Kevin-hq5os]

I hope people are buying this, it's really disgusting that this quality of content is free. I know, such a weird thing to complain about, I just feel like WongFu doesn't get their dues.

[@eseo6989]

Love this series so far! Thank you for shining light on the reality of Asian’s struggles in America. And thank you for creating videos that are substantial and really shares the truth.

[@londynharris-elzein]

This is by far my favorite episode yet

[@j_One43]

As a Korean, the Korean engineer was so on point with Koreans i grew up with lol k-pride~ lol love this series, watching for a second time.

[@myermayhem2520]

We have a similar issue in the black community. Recent black african immigrants and those who descend from enslaved black Africans are grouped together. Then Caribbeans, Haitian, 'Native' black Americans, etc are grouped. Then we have gullahs, creoles, southerners, black Canadians.

[@brooklyn3799]

literally the best series ever. I only subscribed to wong fu recently but i love their stuff and can't wait for more!

[@weiweiwang1215]

I totally love the message of this episode! Been trying to do this in my community so it's great to see this!! YAY!

[@allendeen]

Thanks Wong Fu! This made my day again. And if by the end of the day you have changed someone's perspective of life, made him a better person or just more happy...then your real goal in life has been achieved! THUMBS UP!

[@PharmYo]

We demand more shirtless Phil!
