And here I wanted to know his take on Thai or Laosian accents/speech mannerisms.

This guy so funny! *In his Korean accent*

When he made his joke about his dad saying "rice is rice" man, that shit hit hard but was hysterical

This guy's apparently seen like two Asian actors in famous roles and thinks he's about a hundred times more clever than he actually is.

My wife is Korean and that’s pretty spot on, but dialect changes dramatically depending on the city

The Korean bit was cut short, he says they also sound like ghosts. @ 55 seconds in https://youtu.be/el84efC10oE

thanks for the link and credit. +1 ...also YT tip; add "?t=55" to the end of your link to start playing at the specified # of seconds (55)
i.e. https://youtu.be/el84efC10oE?t=55 or use the share button with the "start at" checkbox ticked. Same result

Ain't no asian dude gone on stage to slap him..? ????
HamburgerWelper
I don't think an Asian is gonna slap an Asian comedian whose main schtick is jokes about being Asian after paying to see exactly that.

Jo Koy is awesome!
SarcasticComment
He uses race jokes like Jim Gaffigan uses food jokes. 60% to 70% of his act of generally low hanging fruit.

Sorry, I grew up in Japan and studied linguistics. Theses stereotypes do not always apply. Just in case anyone thought other wise.
Actually, easiest way to distinguish Korean from Japanese is common sentence-ender "desh'ta" (or "desu") in Japanese and "sumida" in Korean.

I actually hate Jo Koi. I hate comedians that have to make fun of foreign accents to make people laugh.
Accents are funny though. There doesn't have to be a xenophobic/hateful connotation. We all sound funny to each other.
I like jokes that are clever. There's nothing clever about making fun of the way people speak. It's lazy comedy.
Mitanhal
Saw him in theater near Boston. He has no idea how to handle a hecklers. Lost me as a fan.
What happened
People were talking in the audience. I think it was 2 blonde ladies. He turned up the house lights to full 3 times. And didn't even finish/
/ the story he was saying about how he got the name Joe Koy because he was too angry and flustered.
Ah that sounds wack
WhichIsIt
He was unable to handle hecklers
DaLwkiz
What are hecklers?
Jehadriel
Assholes who go to shows with the intention of fucking with the comedian
Think of them as trolls who sit in the audience and not in front of a computer

I thought we were past the stage of lazy racial stereotypes being mined for comedy. Apparently not.

All humor is based on playing on expectations and stereotypes are expectations.

Not sure why you're getting DV. You have a valid point
EaNasirIsABastard
You mean the racial stereotype of Vietnamese people driving past while trying to talk to you?
PieAndPunch
Idk man, I can tell you as a Korean person I thought it was pretty funny. Most Asians I know love the guy since he's an Asian comic and his-
material is relatable to almost all of our experiences growing up in America. Gotta be able to laugh at yourself sometimes
user82650
Nah they'll always be funny.
Also, for reference, see this Simpsons bit from 1994. 1994! https://youtu.be/L104LViQeIw
I didn't think it was that funny. I thought it was tasteless, But what's even more tasteless is being offended for a race that your not a-
-part of like that speedy gonzalles thing that happened.
Spiked
especially since it's an asian man making the jokes
Wait.... He's asian?.... How was I not able to see that?
In the original (landscape) video, his name is easier to read since it's those giant letters behind him
He's half & was raised by that side. Understandable that some might not be able to see it, but he's known mainly for joking about his family
