In 2019, streetwear designer Khanh Ngo launched his online store and made $90K in less than three months. He landed his “dream job” at Levi’s, but when COVID hit, he lost his job. Growing up in a rough neighborhood, Khanh wasn’t typical in the fashion industry, and people judged him for not being the model minority Asian. He also felt shamed by his father–a Veteran and Captain, who projected his own losses onto his son. <br /><br />Between familial pressures and stereotyping, Khanh wasn’t in a good place. Today, Khanh speaks on how those difficulties made him more authentic, and a source of inspiration, for even his own family. He’s proud to represent where he’s from and tell the stories he believes are important. He’s also focused on love–not normalizing being defensive “because you’re Asian” anymore. <br /><br />Directors<br />Boya Sun<br />Ruolin Xu Luyo<br /><br />Producer<br />Boya Sun<br /><br />Editor<br />Ruolin Xu Luyo<br /><br />Cinematographer<br />Rafael Roy<br /><br />Production Sound<br />Kelin Verrette<br /><br />Editor-in-Chief<br />Keshia Hannam<br /><br />Head of Production<br />Stephanie Tangkilisan<br /><br />Post Production Coordinator<br />Skolastika Lupitawina<br /><br />Color<br />Nadya Shabrina<br /><br />Sound<br />David Alba<br /><br />Additional Music by<br />Force - Daniele Musto<br />Wild and Free - Andrew Jordan<br />Free - Lasii<br />Random Wave - Yarin Primak<br />Sometimes - warmkeys.<br />Rising Sun - Ramol<br />Bad B Freestyle - BAER
