I hate jeans for no reason.

I grew up in a very Catholic family. Up until puberty, I would go to a Catholic church every week.

Ever since I arrived in America to promote Stoker, I haven't had time to go and see it in a theater. The fact that I had to shoot twice as fast as I'm used to in Korea was the most challenging thing about my Hollywood experience.

Certainly, it includes that. I want the story to be interpreted in as many ways as possible, and of course, the bad blood aspect of it included. For instance, perhaps this is a story not about the hereditary nature of evil, but rather you could interpret it from a different perspective, too.

When I'm writing something, if it gets too serious, I just can't bear it, so I take a step back and take the overall scene in and vent the air a little bit.

When I was growing up, we were taught in school that North Koreans, and especially the North Korean leadership, were all devils.

I don't really believe in the auteur theory.
