Chris_Park_Dog_Day_Care_Owner

I was flipping through a magazine, and came across this Chase credit card ad, supposedly highlighting “Chris Park,” a “Dog Daycare Owner.”

Well, clearly, this is an image of actor, comedian, writer and director Randall Park, and I don’t think he owns a dog daycare as far as I know. It’s instances like this that I am always skeptical of ads supposedly portraying real life people, because oftentimes more than not, they are not for real. (See also, the related television ad.) I can’t wait to see Park in the upcoming comedy, Fresh Off the Boat. I really do hope it’s Park very big break, where he gets the recognition he deserves.

BTW, I have nothing against Chase – I have a United Airlines credit card that is managed by Chase.
