Daniel Dae Kim Confirms 'Hawaii Five-0' Exit: 'The Path To Equality Is Rarely Easy'

Daniel Dae Kim has officially confirmed his exit from Hawaii Five-0 after reports emerged that he and co-star Grace Park left the show over salary equality disputes.

The pair were reportedly offered less than other co-stars Alex O’Loughlin and Scott Caan.

“I’ll end by saying that though transitions can be difficult, I encourage us all to look beyond the disappointment of this moment to the bigger picture. The path to equality is rarely easy. But I hope you can be excited for the future. I am. 5-0 continues on after one of its strongest seasons. I’ve got new acting projects on the horizon, and as a producer, my company, 3AD, has its first show, THE GOOD DOCTOR, set to air this fall on ABC. I hope you’ll tune in. There’s a lot to look forward to and I’ll be sure to share it with you. In the meantime,” he posted on Facebook.
