Personality assessment
Awkwafina, who made her debut as a hip-hop singer, contributed to the equal rights of ethnic minorities through music and improved the social and ecological environment in the United States. Awkwafina, who later transformed into an actor, can always find his sense of existence through his unique comedy performance in the comedy film Crossing the Sea: A Honey trap and many leading characters in Crazy Asian Rich. She is not limited to funny and avant-garde labels. In the family film Farewell directed by Wang Ziyi, she used her own performance to show Asian Americans' confusion about identity, which is both restrained and explosive. It fully and truly interprets the dilemma faced by the heroine Billie from the figure and expression, proves her acting skills with strength, and successfully completes the transformation from a funny artist to an actor.
