James Hong, the barrier-breaking acting legend, became the oldest person ever to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Tuesday.

HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES -- James Hong, the barrier-breaking Asian acting legend, became the oldest person ever to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Tuesday.

"Before I was doing, you know, little, small things here and there except for 'Everything Everywhere All at Once," Hong later told Eyewitness News. "And the fact that he hadn't be recognized, I thought, was an oversight," said Kim."And so all I wanted to do was bring attention to the fact that we have this national treasure working today, alive and vital, as you saw, who could use some recognition."
