The stand-up comedy wave has hit Hong Kong—and Chinese-American funnyman Jimmy O. Yang rode it to perfection! His five roaring shows at the Hong Kong Coliseum had fans cheering, celebrities flocking, and the city buzzing with pride. For Yang, it wasn’t just a tour—it was a triumphant homecoming!  

Born in Hong Kong with Shanghai roots, Yang moved to the U.S. at 13. Armed with razor-sharp wit and fluency in four languages, he cracked cultural barriers, carving out a rare space for Asian voices in American comedy. But his rise? No joke. From unpaid club gigs to relentless hustle—acting classes, voice roles, tiny stages—he fought for every laugh in a tough industry.  

Now, Yang’s a powerhouse: stand-up star, Hollywood actor, bestselling author, and a motivational force on TEDx and college stages. As a barrier-smashing icon, he’s inspiring a new generation to dream fearlessly—and laugh along the way!
