The casting comes on the heels of "Grey's Anatomy" adding a slew of other newcomers, including "Inventing Anna" alum Alexis Floyd, "The Thing About Harry" star Niko Terho, "The Sex Lives of College Girls" star Midori Francis and "Reign" alum Adelaide Kane.
Shum played Mike Chang on "Glee" for its six-season run and popped up as Charlie Wu in a mid-credits scene during 2018's "Crazy Rich Asians," based on the Kevin Kwan novel of the same name. He's set to reprise that role in the sequel film, an unnamed project based on Kwan's follow-up novel, "China Rich Girlfriend."
"Grey's Anatomy" season 19 premieres Oct. 6 on ABC.
