On Thursday, “Lost” actor Daniel Dae Kim, who is Asian American, lashed out at President Donald Trump for referring to the China-originated novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, as the “Chinese virus.”
“Yes, Im Asian. And yes, I have coronavirus,” Kim said during a lengthy Instagram video announcing his positive COVID-19 test. “But I did not get it from China, I got in America, in New York City.”
quote:
Taking a shot at the president, Kim added: “And despite what certain political leaders want to call it, I don’t consider the place where it’s from as important as the people who are sick and dying. If I did, I would call this thing the New York virus, but that would be silly, right?”

"Kim" sounds like he's Korean. It's racist to assume all Asians are the same. Iranians are Asians, too. What about them?

Given that he is of Korean descent, would he not WANT to bad-mouth China?

Then why get all butt hurt when someone calls it the Chinese virus or the Kung Flu?

He is free to call it the NY virus all he wants in my opinion. It would be dumb but whatever.

His mental state isnt attached to his ethnicity. Hes just another Hollywood actor in his mindset.

The Chinese have done wonders for North Korea, and let's not forget how well the Japanese treated Korea during World War 2. He should send both of them roses.
