A stereotype in West that chinese and asian women are docile, fragile and submissive to men. They are seen as typical girly girl and ideal wives. This stereotype is not always true beacuse chinese and some other asian women are known to dominate their boyfriends and husbands and in rare cases miserably treat them but when it comes to white men they are known to behave like china doll due to pinkerton syndrome in order to impress white men.
Cho chang is acts like a china doll and behaves like sarong party girl in front of white men.
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
