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

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

I became a film director, but I wasn't successful with my first couple of films, so I had to turn to becoming a film critic to make a living.

I believe 'love' is very nice to hear, but it's used so much that it's come to a point where it's almost meaningless.

The reason why I always wanted to make an American film was because of the Western genre. It is something that I would very much like to make in the future, because it's very uniquely American, and I can't make a Western film in Korean.

Actors are professionals who deal with people's emotions and their thoughts.

I guess I probably make violent films partly because I can't express my anger in my real life very well.
