* DeadpanSnarker: A couple of her more recent roles seem to have her as this, [=GoGo=] Tomago being the most notable.

** She claims she was turned down for a part in the ''Film/CrazyRichAsians'' adaptation, because producers wanted someone who was Chinese (as she is Korean). She later criticised the casting directors for their hypocrisy when they cast another part with an actor who [[ButNotTooBlack was half white]]. Later, she apologized for her comments after people accused her for attacking Eurasians. [[note]]The actor in question, Henry Golding, who is Malaysian-British and had stayed in Singapore for years, was hurt with the accusation of not being really Asian.[[/note]]

Her career began on ''Series/TheRealWorld'' of all things. She was a contestant on ''The Real World: Sandiego'', the fourteenth season of the show. However she has since gone onto bigger and better things - and has had one of the most successful media careers out of ''The Real World'''s alumni. Not that it wasn't tough to shake her reputation from it however; she claims she left it off her resume in most of her early auditions. She's also one of the most successful Asian-American actors working in Hollywood today. Though she too still falls victim to the MinorityShowGhetto - as evidenced by the DevelopmentHell for the biopic ''Eden'', which struggled to find investors due to its absence of a WhiteMaleLead. They didn't have to in the end, and Jamie won critical acclaim for her performance.

* ActorInspiredElement:[[invoked]] She and Sarah Bolger picked up on the LesYay between Mulan and Aurora, and read their scenes as if they were lovers. The show then decided to reveal [[spoiler: Mulan was secretly in love with Aurora]].

She is married to fellow actor Creator/BryanGreenberg and they have two children. Despite having the same last name, she's not related to Creator/CharletChung .

* RaceLift: A proxy example. She plays Valerie Vale in ''{{Series/Gotham}}'' - who is the aunt of Vicki Vale, according to WordOfGod. Vicki is a blonde white woman in the comics. Valerie is single, so she's not a Vale by marriage.

* ''Film/SinCity A Dame To Kill For'' (2014) as 'Miho'

She is married to fellow actor Brian Greenberg. Despite having the same last name, she's not related to Creator/CharletChung .

* ''Series/{{The Gifted|2017}}'' (2017) as '[[ComicBook/{{Blink}} Clarice Ferguson / Blink]]'
