But then if we were to retreat and I turned around and ran back the Americans would try to kill me too because they would think I am an enemy in disguise. I definitely think I would have been shot from one side and the other.<ref name=chinainsight />}}

==Early life and education==
Hong was born on February 22, 1929, in [[Minneapolis]], [[Minnesota]], to Chinese emigrant parents Ng Fok Hong (吳福堂; aka Frank Wu Hong) and Lee Suey Far (李瑞花; aka Lee Shui Fa). His father emigrated from [[Hong Kong]] to [[Chicago]], [[Illinois]], via [[Canada]], and later moved to Minneapolis where he owned a restaurant and was leader of the local [[Hip Sing Tong]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?ref=search&v=1062204684238045|title=MULAN #GoldOpen Q&A with Original Animated Cast|website=Facebook}}</ref> Hong's paternal grandfather was from [[Taishan, Guangdong|Taishan]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.jameshongfilms.com/ |title=Official website |website=JamesHongFilms.com}}</ref>
For his early education, Hong moved to [[Hong Kong]], where he lived in [[Kowloon]], before returning to the United States at the age of 10. Growing up, Hong stated he was the only Asian student in a class of 500 children. As a result, he was the victim of bullying and racism by classmates who targeted him because he was seen as a foreigner and because he could not speak English well.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Lee |first1=Ann |title=This is my chance!'

He first developed an interest in performing arts after watching [[Peking opera]] performers rehearse at his father's shop.<ref name=":0" />
Hong studied [[civil engineering]] at the [[University of Minnesota]], where he concentrated the majority of his free time on moving plates and fixing templates for the drill squad. <!-- I have no idea what any of those 3 things are, please explain or wikilink --> However, his studies were soon interrupted as the [[Korean War]] began in early 1950s, and Hong was drafted into the [[United States Army]]. After the war, Hong moved to [[Los Angeles]] in 1953 with a friend, where he would finish his degree at the [[University of Southern California]]. Hong soon began working full time as a road engineer for [[Los Angeles County]] during the day, while acting in the evenings, the weekends, and during his vacation and sick days. He eventually quit engineering for good, after five and a half years, to devote himself to acting and voice work full-time.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2017-10-22 |title=James Hong |url=https://interviews.televisionacademy.com/interviews/james-hong |access-date=2022-06-17 |website=Television Academy Interviews |language=en}}</ref>
==Military service==
Hong served in the [[United States Army]] at [[Fort McClellan]] and [[Fort Rucker|Camp Rucker]] in Alabama with the [[Special Services (entertainment)|Special Services]] for 18 months from 1952 to 1953. After finishing his training for the day, he would entertain soldiers during the [[Korean War]]; upon witnessing Hong's performing prowess, the camp general asked Hong to stay at Camp Rucker and be in charge of the camp's live shows rather than deploy overseas.<ref name="chinainsight">{{cite web |url=https://www.chinainsight.info/business-2016/93-abc/abc/374-home-from-hollywood-james-hongs-nostalgic-return-to-minnesota-v15-374.html |title=Home from Hollywood: James Hong's nostalgic return to Minnesota |last=Leung |first=Albert |date=November 4, 2009 |website=China Insight |access-date=October 2, 2016}}</ref>
Hong reflected on this experience and how it may have saved his life:
{{Blockquote|1=I do not know if I would have liked to go to war in Korea but let's admit it that with a G.I. cap and this face charging at the Korean army, the Koreans would try to kill me. But then if we were to retreat and I turned around and ran back the Americans would try to kill me too because they would think I am an enemy in disguise. I definitely think I would have been shot from one side and the other.<ref name=chinainsight />}}
