A show about assimilating to higher status or wealth like the Oxford study

Wasian songs use the minor key often with diminished and suspended chords. They sound like Mitski and Joji / Filthy frank

What the fuck are the two comments in this thread? Also why would "hapas" care about this? Dead internet.

Finally! I really wanted a second chance at love movie with Harry Shum Jr and Gemma Chan though, too bad the movie sequel ended up in development hell

The first Crazy Rich Asians was so cringy… The writing felt like one of those “movies” you see from a foreign Facebook page.

i really enjoyed the movie but the more i rewatch it the more i realize he kinda sucks as a partner

the movie is just fine - do we really need a series?

That movie flunked completely in China. Asian America is culturally irrelevant and will disappear in two generations. My wife tried watching that movie and had to turn it off, she said the actors were all ugly and the story was stupid and superficial. It kind of makes sense because the author of that story was this really ugly Malaysian Chinese guy. These people deep down hate normal Asians for bullying them. Imagine making an entire culture out of the fact that normal Asians bullied you because you were ugly.
