Here, Wei-Chen’s description of Jin shows how good and generous of a friend Wei-Chen is. He surely knows that speaking so highly of Jin to Amelia will pique her interest in Jin, but Wei-Chen doesn’t seem to be saying any of this as part of an act. This, then, suggests that like the Monkey King, Jin is a naturally kind, generous, and giving person. Given the parallels between the Monkey King and Jin, then, this foreshadows a similar trajectory in their stories—Jin will likely continue to attempt to change his identity, and ensue dire consequences as a result.
