I don't think he'll go to jail.

My Beverly Hills certificate? I don't think so. But yeah, it was culture shock because Hong Kong is a big metropolitan, very vertical city, much like New York. You can walk anywhere. There's life on the streets. There's subways. You don't need a car. Whereas LA is the opposite. Everything is six lanes wide. Everything is concrete, strip malls. You can't walk.

Absolutely. The one thing that I really loved was hip hop when I first came to this country. It was so foreign to me in a way, but I was like, wow, this is the most American thing ever. And in high school, I really got into hip hop. I got into rap. I started making beats. I thought that would like make me instead of like the weird foreign kid into like the cool kind of hip hop kid.

But of course it's weird, you know, for me to try to rap, like, you know, but I really kind of dove into that. And then in college, I went to UC San Diego. It was a big Asian population.
