In 2002, she signed a contract with Disney and participated in many of its shows.

 She attracted attention as the daughter of the super-rich London Tipton family in the series “The Suite Life of Zack & Cody” (2055).

After the success of London, Brenda Song appeared more in Disney projects. In 2006, the studio invested in her own film “Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior” for her to play the main character.

The script revolves around a Chinese female high school student in California, who is chosen to be a legendary warrior against demons.

The work is one of Disney’s first film projects targeting the Asian community in the US, exploiting the issue of preserving the homeland’s cultural identity among the younger generation.

 According to Mochi , Song learned taekwondo with his brother since childhood.

“Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior” was positively received by audiences and critics.

 However, the film did not surpass the success of Song’s previous role as London Tiptop.
