Asian Canadian: Kim and Convenience

asian canadian: Ins Choi's play, also called Kim's Convenience, has been a hit since its debut at the Fringe in 2011, according to Toronto Star. For me as an Asian Canadian, the recognition of the play, and especially the TV show, is long overdue. THE CANADIAN PRESS By Eleanor TyFri., March 17, 2017 The CBC TV show Kim's Convenience won two prizes at the ACTRA awards in February the Ensemble award and Outstanding Female Performance. Kim's Convenience is more than a strong comedy with great punchlines. For the first time on TV this season, I saw someone who looked like me on prime-time television in my own city. It is about making Asian Canadians, who have long been an absent presence in Canada, visible in the media. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
