When I do an Asian character or an Asian voice I'm doing one because that's my heritage and my family and where I come from. My family is of Korean descent and specifically North Korean descent. So it makes sense for me to talk about that issue because it's the only weapon I have to somehow avenge my family and my history.

Comedy is the only weapon I have to battle totalitarianism.

That's part of being an artist; you have to be that sensitive.

It makes it very hard to say what you believe in and not be attacked for it. And it's not fair; I'm Korean, but I'm not supposed to talk about my experience and my life? It's unaccepting.

A lot of the actresses who were around when I started, I don't know where they are. Comics stick around.

I was crazy about the song "Doot Doot," so I usually love this genre of weird, European electronic.

Korean children get a lot of fuss made over them, I guess because life was tough in the old country, and it was a big deal if you survived. There's a big party thrown when you are 100 days old, followed by another when you make it to one whole year.
