Bling Dynasty is a reality show that sifts through the glitz and glamor of Los Angeles’ uber-wealthy Asian community. It’s a real-life Crazy Rich Asians (and we mean that in the best way possible), and it doesn’t shy away from discussing things like family issues, fertility problems, and toxic relationships. But the cast of this binge-worthy series also has a lot of fun in between, swapping light barbs about wearing “couture” clothing or not and ribbing one another for their excessively ostentatious lifestyles.
The show is hosted by model Kevin Kreider, who is new-ish to the LA social scene and quickly befriends a group of sparkly, affluent friends. He’s particularly close with Kane Lim, the son of a Singapore billionaire who runs his father’s business and serves as Kreider’s social navigator. He introduces him to a number of other members of the crew, including Christine Chiu, the wife of a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon with a net worth of more than $80 million and daughter of a Taiwanese heiress; Kim Lee, who’s a famous DJ in East Asia and is described by Kane as the “Calvin Harris of Asia”; and Jaime Xie, 22, the daughter of cybersecurity technology billionaire Ken Xie and a fashion influencer who loves tracking her designer outfits on Instagram and YouTube.
Season 1 of the show also featured Cherie Chan and her husband Jessey Lee, but the couple won’t be back for season 2. Other returning cast members include entrepreneur Kelly Mi Li, philanthropist Christina Chiu, Kim Lee, and models Anna Shay and Mimi Morris.
