I grew up never seeing myself on-screen, and it's really important to me to give people who look like me a chance to see themselves. I want to see myself as the hero of any story. I want to see myself save the world from the bomb.

As a working actor, all I want to do is work. That's it. It's terrifying when you don't work. It's very hard when you don't work. There have been times when I've been out of work for like six months. I feel theatre to me is like manna.

I was lucky on 'Arli$$.' I basically got to do whatever I wanted because HBO is great for that.

Creatively, I really feel like I gave it my all, and I feel ready to let her go.

Hollywood likes to put actors in boxes, and it likes to put Asian actors in really small boxes.

I feel comfortable in places like London. You get many cultures in L.A. but it's strangely segregated.

Wherever Koreans are, they set up a church.
