Alan (played by longtime Sesame Street actor Alan Muraoka), Elmo, and Ji-Young meet everyone from a hula dancer from Hawaii to teachers from India, all of whom are integral members to the neighborhood. Ji-Young is the latest addition to the cast, the show’s first Asian American puppet of Korean descent. Alan, who is Japanese-American, tells Elmo that the friends they’re about to meet are “Asians and Pacific Islanders, just like Ji-Young” and him. The tour is a prelude to a special Sesame Street episode, “See Us Coming Together”, which will air on Nov. 25 and is directed by Muraoka himself. The episode will mark Ji-Young’s official episode debut, while approaching large conversations about race and ultimately celebrating the Asian and Pacific Islander communities across America. The latter is indeed a reason to sing. Want more?
