I am not going to do a film based on a bad scenario just to make a big Hollywood film or work with Hollywood stars.

I've always had an interest in vampire films - not just 'Nosferatu,' but there are many others that I have enjoyed: Abel Ferrara,Coppola, Neil Jordan.

I don't usually watch a lot of TV, but Mad Men changed my perspective. I admire Matthew Weiner who came up with the idea and wrote such a great TV series, and the broadcasting company for being bold enough to air such a series.

I believe there are more films that involve love and forgiveness than violence, but they often seem fake and are almost embarrassing to watch.

If you are watching my films and wondering, am I missing humorous speak because I'm not Korean? Am I missing out? You don't have to worry, because you're only missing probably about a few cents worth out of your ticket price.

The audience seems hazy to me, shrouded in a veil through which I can't see.

I don't really believe in the auteur theory.
