Episode description

Ken Jeong met his wife while they were both practicing medicine at the same hospital in Los Angeles. But after he married, he quit medicine to pursue acting full-time. Then, a year later, his wife was diagnosed with aggressive stage III breast cancer. They had twins who were a year old. And Ken had just gotten an offer to play an Asian mobster in a Las Vegas buddy movie called "The Hangover."
