I started mentally listing Asians I know, then saw the article specifies "famous" and I drew a blank. First name that came to mind was Grace Park, but idk if she's American.

How long did they have to think about it? If it was like a guy randomly running up and going "quick, answer this!" If probably draw a blank for the first few seconds.

Also, kind of sad that no one has mentioned Bruce Lee. Is he that forgotten already?
