Character Breakdowns:
♠ CALLUM (18-25): Chinese-American. The ringleader; pushy to a fault; never satisfied and annoying about it

♠ ANDREW (18-25): Chinese-American. The wet blanket; too smart for his own good; the one who's always saying "I'm not sure this is a good idea…"

♠ HARRISON (18-25): Chinese-American. The wildcard; he calls himself the dumb one of the group; goes along with the rest of the group
