During his latest appearance on 'The Late Late Show with James Corden', 'Community' and 'Crazy Rich Asians' star Ken Jeong opened up about how he is holding up during the quarantine era. The licensed physician spoke about how he and his wife Tran Ho, also a family physician, have been inundated with questions about Covid-19. 

The doctor couple has had no respite since the lockdown as both of them keep getting questions about the virus and the disease. One of the most common questions that Ken says he has been getting is about the vaccine for Covid-19. And while Dr Anthony Fauci keeps quoting the ideal time period of 8-12 months, Ken pointed out that vaccines are tricky because there are a lot of loopholes — medical and political — that need to be cleared before the vaccine is released in the market.

But apart from this general catching up, Ken participated in a hilarious segment of who can sing. From being a judge in 'The Masked Singer', Ken has some judgment about singers. He had to prove this in the May 19 episode and safe to say, it led to hilarity.

"This is an appreciation tweet for @kenjeong because he seems to enjoy being A PART of comedy as much as he. he enjoys making comedy. Like he takes just as much joy from laughing at other people's jokes as he does making them. And that's just so wholesome," tweeted a fan.

"@kenjeong Thank you so much for all that you do, Ken. Not only do you make this world a better place, but you’re also such an inspiring person. Keep up the wonderful work!" added another. "Am currently watching you on The Late Late Show. You're great," concurred a fan. 

Apart from that, Ken added that he has been doing more than just good, focusing on staying safe with his twin daughters, Zooey and Alexa. The family also has a new member, a pet dog named Mocha. It was Mocha, who towards the end of his segment received love from Ken's fans. "So cute!! My dog’s name is also Mocha," said one. "IT'S SO CUTE," added a fan while another even went on to say "I would die for Mocha."
