Unfortunately when Adam joined BFOM, the role of the token Asian had already been taken. Not to be discouraged, Adam decided that since BFOM is all about racial differences, to divide the popular "Asian" stereotype into two 'separate but equal' stereotypes, the Chinese/Thai (Jeff Lum), and the Japanese (Adam). With two separate stereotypes to fulfill, there is twice the fun, twice the racial slurs and jokes, and twice the pain and suffering during each rehearsal arguing over which SPECIFIC oriental ethnicity is really taking all the tech jobs and college admission spots. Oh yea, Adam plays piano and enjoys singing, but not really in front of people, which is strange because he's in two a cappella groups.
