## Trivia

* The character of Min was originally written as being of Chinese heritage but when Pia Manalo was cast in the role, the producers changed the character's heritage to Filipino, since Manalo herself is of Filipino descent.
	+ Although the character is of Filipino descent, the producers' act of retaining the name Min implies that she is Filipino with partial Chinese heritage.
* In place of Amy, she joined the cast of Barney and four of the "Backyard Gang" kids (alongside another new kid Shawn) in the 1992 TV series.
