Paul Sun-Hyung Lee is a four-time Canadian Screen Award winner for Best Actor in a Comedy Series for his performance as family patriarch ‘Appa’ in Kim's Convenience. A self-professed nerd, he is a collector of movies, all things Star Wars, and an avid replica prop builder and cosplayer. Paul was thrilled to join the Star Wars universe in The MandalorianThe Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka as X-wing fighter ‘Captain Carson Teva’ for Disney+. Most recently, you can catch Paul as the beloved ‘Uncle Iroh’ in Netflix’s live action series Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Speaking on: 2024 Rockies Gala (Van Horne Ballroom)
