Title
With ‘Kim’s Convenience’ gone, what happens to Asian representation in the media?: COVID-19 Asian representation in Media

Description
This article discusses why Kim's Convenience a, popular Canadian comedy that followed a Korean immigrant family as they built a life in the big city of Toronto, was abruptly cancelled. Although Asian representation in the media and Hollywood is limited, Kim's Convenience had a wide cast of fascinating individuals that overcame stereotypes about Asians. Asians are no longer obliged to play roles, breaking through the stereotype of the "intelligent scholars." Interracial relationships were also portrayed in healthy manners, not by fetishizing cultures or using interracial relationships as an aesthetic. During the COVID-19 pandemic, rates of prejudice have risen drastically, leaving many  Asian communities dehumanized and blamed for the "Wuhan virus" or "Kung flu." There is a lack of awareness towards the social injustice towards Asian Canadian communities worsening as the pandemic spans.
