I only see things that I shouldn't have done when I watch my film again.

There's no such thing as being cool. People who pretend to be cool have more emotional layers.

I never make a film with a message in mind. I'm more interested in the characters; how they are related to each other and the situation they're in.

There's no such thing as "an auteurist filmmaker." Every film directors is an auteur. We only make films that we do because we cannot put on clothes that don't fit us.

The quality of Korean actors is actually quite high. Their passion is overwhelming but not many platforms are available to cater to their creative needs. They're thirsty for something new and I think that's where I connect with them. They have vision. In certain sense many Korean actors have better vision than directors.

The way people respond to struggles or express their feelings in difficult situations are very different. I like imagining how characters would react in certain situations.
