Won Lee, the first Asian American in the NBA, is dubbed "The Wonder" after he stuns the world in a seven-game winning streak. He grapples with his new-found fame and racism against Asians in sports as he starts a relationship with Carrie Kang, a big studio producer attempting to bring K-drama into the US. WONDER follows Won and Carrie, two Asian Americans fighting for opportunities to be seen in industries where Asians are often underrepresented/nonexistent and finding their places in a country that isn't particularly welcoming.
