Dr. Ken

Ken Jeong is a real doctor.

Some of the show's producers put pressure on Jeong to cast a white actress in the role of his wife. Jeong avoided this by casting Albert Tsai as Ken's son, Dave, first.

The premiere of this series marks the first time in the U.S. that two series with predominately Asian-American casts aired in the same season. 'Fresh Off The Boat' also aired on the same network, ABC.
