Upgraded to a full-time cast member for Season Two, Jee Young Han plays Esti Nelson, Paige’s foster sister. More than just inclusive casting, Han’s character is based off of show creator Tracy McMillan’s own personal childhood experience as a foster child with a Korean sister. In Episode 6 of the new season titled “The Legend of the Rollerblades”, we see Esti take on her “Korean identity crisis” when she attends a Korean trans-racial adoption meetup to meet other Koreans who struggle with whether they are supposed to like kim chee or Wes Anderson movies. The scenes are effective at getting viewers to laugh, but also truly ponder what it must be like to be a minority raised by white American parents.
