Excited
I saw this Target commercial the other day, making this the *third* commercial the discount retailer has done that very tastefully highlights Asian Americans in every day normal settings. Personally, I like the first commercial the best since it was unexpected, includes the tune Brand New Day and highlighted a whole family (mom, dad, kids and grandparents). The second commercial with the over-protective mom was pretty funny as well. This commercial was a bit too short and quiet.

It seems sad that it's more uncommon, and thus a cause for celebration to see "normal" representations of Asians on TV.
