There are numerous hidden messages in this video that the audience may not be completely aware of, the main one is the Asian parent stereotype. As seen in this video, the father barges in and asks his son if he is a doctor yet. When replied with the answer he was not looking for, he told his son to talk to him when he becomes one. This Asian father expects nothing less out of his son than being part of a high ranking job that pays for a lot of money and is a high class society job. In this setting the father will not acknowledge his son under any circumstances unless he becomes a doctor. Also, the son is clearly the first generation in America because the son has a normal American accent whereas the father has a thick accent from one of the Asian countries.
Another thing worth noticing is that the father is not in tune with his sons life. All the father cares about is his education and has already decided the lifestyle that his song will be living once he is an adult. He does not take into consideration what the son wants and what he chooses to do with his life. The son is living in a completely controlled environment by his father.
Kids should be able to do whatever they choose. They should be able to decide what jobs they want as adults. It is a parents duty to guide their children and raise them well to be able to live on their own and become independent as they become older, not to control ever aspect of their life or else how will they learn if everything is already done for them? Making mistakes is a part of growing up and you learn better from those by making it right again. Every parent wants their child to succeed in life, instead of thinking how you want them to succeed,think about how they want to do it.
