honda commercial's "foreign language couple"



Saw this latest TV commercial for Honda's Really Big Sales Event, featuring an Asian American couple, airing multiple times over the weekend. I found it rather amusing. The commercial is entitled "Foreign Language Couple," but it turns out their language is not so foreign. Take a look:



Take note, my fellow Asians. Car dealers have gotten savvy to our Secret Asian Language technique. It's time to switch to plan B. I'll update the handbook.

If I'm not mistaken, the Play-It-Cool guy is played by actor Allen C. Liu. Anybody out there recognize the woman? UPDATE: Aaaaaaand we have an ID. According to my buddy Ray, the woman in the ad is Angela Ai.
