In April 2020, John Cho wrote an op/ed in the LA Times (responding to a slew of then-recent anti-Asian hate crimes) in which he recalled that when he and Kal Penn were on the 2004 press tour to promote the original release of Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, every single time they went through security Penn alone would be singled out for so-called "random" TSA searches, while Cho never was. "We flew across the country-New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Seattle-and it became a grim routine: Flight after flight, Kal would be pulled aside for a 'random' search. On one leg of the tour, Kal's friend Gabe joined us, and when we hit security, Kal was selected for a search while Gabe and I flew through unscathed. We gathered our bags and waited on a bench for Kal to be released. Rummaging through his backpack, Gabe suddenly said, 'Kal's going to be annoyed.' When I looked inside it, I realized why: Gabe, who is white, had gone camping recently, and had neglected to remove his Rambo-sized hunting knife from his backpack. I gasped and looked back at Kal, who was watching a Transportation Security Administration worker empty the contents of his bag. It was a reality check."
