“We need attractive Asian-Americans with lively, strong and unique personalities between the ages of 18 to 30 with equally interesting life stories and perspectives to share, especially individuals who know about and/or experienced the Koreatown life.”

Casting isn’t limited strictly to Asian-Americans either.

“If you are not Asian but are obsessed with Asian culture or people in some way, email us and please explain,” it said.
