She stated, "If I am to be cast in a Korean movie, I will be happy to take any role. I will study Korean, and if I don't have any lines, I can act with just my facial expressions. I've always wanted to attend the Busan Film Festival, but I was always caught up with work. I want to attend the festival with a piece I star in".
She also picked "Thirst" as her favorite Korean film and revealed that she has always been a fan of the actor, Song Kang Ho.
Adding on, she revealed the hardships of working as an Asian actress in Hollywood. "It's exactly as people imagine. Working as an East Asian actress in Hollywood is hard and frustrating, and I do simply get tired of it from time to time. But you must overcome these hardships and be able to look at the bigger picture", sharing her sentiments.
She also commented, "I've been friends with people like Sung Kang, Yunjin Kim even before they were famous. I like both actors very much and their success makes me really happy", revealing her friendships with other Korean actors and actresses working in Hollywood.
