Guess who's gonna be a regular on Glee now?

Glee fans have been asking for a while now whether a certain fan-favorite guest star will be promoted to series regular, and I just got the good news that he will! So who is it?

Reliable sources confirm that Harry Shum Jr.— also known as Mike Chang, also known as the hot "Other Asian" dancer with abs of steel—will become a series regular next season.

What this means is that yes, we'll be getting more ridonkulously good dance numbers from Harry (the fans go wild!) but also, sorry Artie, but it looks like your romantic rival might be all smooshy-wooshy with your girl Tina a while longer.

Like Heather Morris (Brittany) and Naya Rivera (Santana) before him, Harry started off in season one as a background player but has moved more into the forefront—scoring his first dancing duet last night with Matthew Morrison (Mr. Schue).

Harry Shum Jr. talks about GLEE season 2

From hitfix:

Thanks to the show's certified phenomenon status and due in no small part to his extremely approachable Twitter presence (@iharryshum), Shum attracted fan attention that far outstripped anything Mike Chang was doing on "Glee." That doesn't mean that fans weren't noting Shum's "Glee" work. Any time you noticed tremendously athletic dancing going on in the background? That probably featured Shum, whose credits the past two "Step Up" movies, "You Got Served" and "Stomp the Yard."



This season, though, it looks as if Shum is going to get subplots and dialogue and maybe somebody will even let him sing.

I caught up with Shum for a little video time last week and the guy is every bit as likable in person as on Twitter. Note that this interview contains a few spoilers about the Tuesday (Sept. 21) "Glee" premiere. They're not major, but still...
