Lana Condor To The People Upset About 'To All The Boys I've Loved Before' Not Having an Asian Male Romantic Lead: 'It's Unfair'

Lana Condor To The People Upset About 'To All The Boys I've Loved Before' Not Having an Asian Male Romantic Lead: 'It's Unfair'

Over the weekend, some viewers got upset with To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before for not having an Asian romantic male lead and author Jenny Han responded to it.

Now, star Lana Condor is too.

In her interview with The Cut, the 21-year-old actress opened up about the decision to stay as close to the book as possible and also clapped back at those who were “protesting” the movie because of that.

“If Jenny was telling a different story, we would tell it,” Lana says. “But I will say this: My boyfriend in real life is Cuban but he is very light-skinned. There are times when people online will say, ‘Of course she’s with a white guy.’ Oh, so Asian people can only love Asian people? I can only be with my race?”

“You are being racist unknowingly and continuing to put us in a box that we don’t need to be in. It’s really unfair.”

Lana added, “People should be able to love who they want to love. It’s offensive to me — you’re continuing to promote tribalism. So I can’t be with who I want to be with? These are probably the same people who have an issue with the LGBT community. It’s the same thing — you telling me who I can love is unfair.”

As far as the group who were boycotting the movie, Lana is sticking by Jenny‘s side.

“I don’t really pay any mind to it, but I think it has been affecting Jenny,” she says. “It’s making what should be an exciting time an anxious and fearful one. I’m so angry at people for making her feel that way.”

Lana continues, “In my experience, I’ve loved all races. It’s not like I can only be with my people. I don’t think we should be stuck to only loving people based on what they look like. For the most part, the fans are really excited and happy.”

Noah is everything they thought Peter Kavinsky would be. That’s who we are trying to please at the end of the day.”

To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before is streaming now on Netflix.

'To All The Boys I've Loved Before' Author Jenny Han Responds To Criticism About Lack of Male Asian Romantic Lead

'To All The Boys I've Loved Before' Author Jenny Han Responds To Criticism About Lack of Male Asian Romantic Lead

Jenny Han is opening up about the criticism arising about To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before.

While tons of viewers are loving the new Netflix film, starring Lana Condor and Noah Centineo, others were concerned about Jenny not writing one of Lara Jean’s crushes as Asian.

“I understand the frustration and I share that frustration of wanting to see more Asian-American men in media,” she shared in a new interview with IndieWire. “For this, all I can say is this is the story that I wrote.”

Jenny emphasizes that this was her story, however, she realizes the importance of writing Asian male leads.

“There are so many people that want to tell stories. I think that the issue is how hard it is to get your foot in the door to tell your stories,” she continued. “For me, I just want to support people in telling the stories that they want to tell, and I would hope that with this movie and ‘Crazy Rich Asians,’ that if it does well, then we’ll get more.

Jenny adds, “More means more representation, more viewpoints, more stories, and I want to see that. I think also, as I continue on and get more clout, I’m committed to that as well. So I do understand the animus behind [the criticism], and I do want to see that happen for people. I think it’s important to just keep pushing for more and to get the doors to open wider.”

To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is streaming now on Netflix.
