Korean American Actress/Singer/Songwriter Megan Lee is looking forward to performing on the Dragon Stage for the Joy Ruckus Club Lunar New Year Festival Saturday.
Lee thinks of herself as a “singing actress.” As a child actor, she has appeared in various commercials, from McDonald’s to Verizon and Wal-Mart commercials. But it was the popularity of her YouTube channel
HelloMeganLee that got her an audition on the popular Korean MCB Star Audition – The Great Birth show where she was selected to be trained in the entertainment mills of South Korea as a recording star. Lee is part of the growing trend of many talented American Asians who move to Asia in order to gain recognition for their talent. However, going into South Korean entertainment training was “pretty intense” according to Lee.
