- Ling Woo is a fictional character in the US comedy-drama Ally McBeal, portrayed by American actress Lucy Liu. Ling was a cold and ferocious Chinese American lawyer who spoke Mandarin, and was knowledgeable in the art of sexual pleasure unknown to the Western world. Unlike the 1970s depictions of docile East Asian women on TV, Ling's character was the opposite, the classic stereotype of Dragon Lady. At the time, she was the only significant representative of Asian women on television (besides news anchors and reporters), leaving no one else to counteract this prominent stereotype. Thus, the portrayal of Ling Woo attracted much scholarly attention.
