Ah, the diversity racket again.
Drum up some categories that gives you a personal boost at the expense of others, and then argue that diversity is a fixed principle.
Bad logic. When diversity is held up as an end in itself, it becomes ridiculous.
For example, you could increase the diversity on the show by hiring a really bad actor.

I believe that Park and Kim are Korean names, but that category won't work, so lets switch to Asians.
I think Caan has a Jewish background, which suggests that he has an ancestry in the Middle East.
The Middle East is part of Asia, which would give Caan an Asian ancestry.

I think the best criteria for this show, would be "locally representative"
That makes sense if you want to depict the culture of modern Hawaii.
And drop the phony "identify themselves as XXX"
Lunatics commonly identify themselves as something they are not, so this by itself is not enough.
I think that "locals" is a pretty good category, because there are common sense reasons for it.
