Born in Los Angeles, Ralph was the son of Korean independence activist Ahn Chang-ho and served the U.S. Navy in World War II, according to NBC News.

Along with New Girl, Ralph’s credits also include appearances in “Eyes of an Angel”, “Suddenly Susan”, “Gilmore Girls”, “The Shield”, “The King of Queens”, “ER” and “Younger and Younger”, among others.

In 2014, New Girl creator Elizabeth Meriwether told The Hollywood Reporter that it was an “easy” decision to bring Ralph on as a recurring character, noting that actor Jake Johnson was actually the person behind the idea.

“He’s really easy to write for,” Meriwether said of Ralph. “It was Jake Johnson’s idea, originally. He texted me about it. Going into this year, I think one of the writers in the retreat pitched his granddaughter being a love interest. But Jake also wanted to do something like that.”
