A&E didn't want to do the Mulan/Aurora story. A&E just gave people a tease to fulfill their obligation of appeasing those pesky SQ fans to shut up and stop bothering them about gay characters. And Sleeping Warrior really went over many people's heads because many viewers thought it was Philip whom Mulan was secretly in love with. It was throwing a bone. And since Jamie, just Meghan Ohry, saw that their characters weren't going to be used often on the show, they went off to pursue other venues. It wasn't like they weren't willing to stay on the show. Sorry.... but most SwanQueen shippers, that I have seen, hate SleepingWarrior. The shipname is very apropos, as it is a complete snorefest. The actresses had no on-screen chemistry, and I was surprised to hear they even got along.

Jamie Chung was never on-contract with ABC or OUaT. She always appears as a guest star, and will remain as such. Her character was never really important, and at times just a glorified extra. Some SQ shippers say it as an obvious copout to develop two secondary characters that won't be on the screen for long and that is why they some didn't buy into Sleeping Warrior. Mulan definitely wasn't important, but they could have gave her more time on the show to flesh out Sleeping Warrior but they didn't. They just gave an audience a bone at "hinting" that Mulan was bi and they left it there. Until now because of criticisms of the lack of LGBT, they made this mega announcement and people will still have the same issues with this type of storyline just like in season 2.
