Criticism
A section criticism might be worth including. Alternatively his style of his comedy and the roles he has done tend to play to stereotypes could be noted and the reader left to draw their own conclusions rather than including the criticism in a more direct manner. He needs to let himself have more positive roles so fellow Asians could have a chance to be represented fairly instead of taking on over the top, unfunny, cheesy ventures all just to get attention and money. -- Horkana (talk) 15:46, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
I don't think there have been notable crticisms of him. 71.184.251.201 (talk) 22:56, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
Grammar
It's "is a Korean-American comedian", not "is an Korean American comedian" ("a" instead of "an", plus a hyphen between "Korean" and "American"). Someone allowed to edit semi-protected entries please correct that.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.226.111.167 (talk • contribs)
First Film
Uncle P was Jeong's first film, not Knocked Up. According to resources, it was made in 2005 and may have been re-released or officially released in 2007 before/during Knocked Up (even if it wasn't, Uncle P is technically his debut -- like it or not). Watching it, you can clearly see it was older than 2007. He played the "bag boy". You can view some sources below to verify/research this (please correct the sentence about Knocked Up being his debut film in the article since for some odd reason it is edit-protected as if he's too important/popular/controversial to be touched):

Dr. Kuni
The Dr. Kuni sentence is written poorly. The character "Dr. Kuni," doesn't need to be in there twice. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.187.154.97 (talk) 01:41, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
Name in Korean?
Is there any sources out there as to how his name is officially spelled out in Hangul? It'd be helpful to include into the article. Rebel shadow (talk) 19:49, 11 July 2010 (UTC) It states "Jeong was born in Detroit, Michigan, the son of Korean immigrants Young and D.K. Jeong, who was a professor at North Carolina A&T State University in Greensboro, North Carolina for 35 years.[3][4]" but since he is only 41, he's been a doctor since he was 6? Maybe it's 3.5 years? Or he's much older than he looks...
