Asian American Commercial Watch: VW’s Sign Then Drive – Let’s go to Vegas!

http://youtu.be/8rStXG1NS4Y

When I first saw this commercial a few weeks ago, I thought it was hilarious. I was wondering what was taking VW so long to post this up on YouTube. In any case, I love Randall Park‘s brief and subtle awkward role in this commercial as he tries to convince the test drivers to return to the dealership. I was just cracking up when I first saw him speak up. Park seems to be the go-to-Asian American guy for commercials lately, seeing him cast in commercials for Chase Sapphire, HBO Go and Ally Bank.

VW isn’t new to casting Asian Americans in their commercials – the last time I recall blogging about their commercials was again for their Sign Then Drive promotion.
