No To A Future In Entertainment

One thing is for certain: Asian culture does not look highly upon entertainment. Not only does the Asian society see social media and entertainment as more of a distraction than part of a culture, but Asians parents don't approve of their kids going into the entertainment job market.

I remember when I was young, I told my Mom I wanted to be an actress when I grew up. She told me "Don't be an actress. Not many people make it to the top like the celebrities you see on TV and in movies. It's a very hard life." So me being an actress was shut down immediately at a young age. Another time I told my Dad that it would be cool to be an anchorwoman for a news channel. He said to me "very few people can make it big on the news channels so it wouldn't be practical for me to become one." Looking back, there were frequent times that my parents discouraged me from entering the entertainment field. That being said, they have discouraged my brothers and me from having any social media websites and from pretty much any form of entertainment that is part of growing up in America.
