John is a Chinese American teenager who lives in New York. He is a short and kind-heated kid who a victim of tiger parenting. He lives with his widowed mother and 4 siblings. Often times he tries to lead a normal life with his fellow peers. The character itself is meant to be male, however his voice must sound very young. Anything from a voice similar sounding to "Tails" from "Sonic" would fit the role. Males are open to audition, as long as the voice is somewhat high-pitched/young sounding.
