this isn't really an issue of young asian americans really feeling unaccepted by other non-asians, it's more on the lines of young asian americans who are having an identity crisis and finding a balance between their racial heritage as well as american culture.
the majority of asians in the media represent 3 stereotypes...one of which hung is portraying. if this is the only outlet and character on TV who represents asian people, then this is a piss poor example of such and probably will contribute to a form of self-hatred for many young, impressionable asian americans.
