"I'm not partial to any system, but at the same time, I'm a Korean actor, so I expect to work mainly on Korean projects."

"My favorite subject was English, and I wanted to study English abroad when I was young, when I was a kid, but my mom said 'No, it's too dangerous to go abroad by yourself.' So I gave up."

"I don't know... I think I'm quite extreme... When I act, I have to immerse myself into the character... otherwise I can't act... In my private life it's the same... I think."

"It was extremely difficult to suppress my emotions, because my character in' A Girl at My Door' goes through so many infuriating situations. It was a lonely process having to portray someone that acts tough but is deeply hurting inside and is unable to express that."

"Being exposed to different production environments in Korea, Japan and the U.S. was a great experience, and each system allows you to quench your thirst in a different way."

"Korean cinema is very improvisational, and there is a unique power that stems from this."

"If my favourite director gives me a role that is very sparkly? A very brilliant character? I'll do it."

"I really love learning and working long hours."

"In social situations, when I'm surrounded by people, I become very shy. But if there's a camera in front of me, I feel free."

"Boys, I'm one of those umpires that misses 'em every once in a while so if it's close, you'd better hit it."

"I always hated to throw a guy out of a game but sometimes it was necessary to keep order."

"The call that always seemed the toughest to me was the slide and tag play at second. You can see it coming, but you don't know which way the runner is going to slide, where the throw is going to be, and how the fielder is going to take the throw."

"When it was time for a player to go, he went."

"It takes the pressure off of your better players to know they don't always have to be on top of their game for the team to do well."

"I'd rather have money and be broken-hearted than be broke and broken-hearted."

"It's just like, damn - I'm competing with myself."

"If you want it, and the more you keep hearing you can't have it, you just go and get it."

"The women that inspire me to be honest are the women that struggle."

"If a girl have beef with me, she gon' have beef with me forever."

"I worked at this supermarket called Amish Market. Everything is, like, organic."

"I'm an emotional gangster. I cry once every month."

"To me, music is art and fashion is art, but fame? Fame isn't art, but the person you become when you're famous - your alter ego - that's art."

"We might as well be true with ourselves."

"I'm on my phone 24-7. I see everything. I hear everything. I am the voice of the streets."

"This is my work ethic: I do not want to raise my future kids where I was raised, and I know the only way to do it is working, working, working, working, working."

"I was always scared to follow my dreams because if I follow my dreams and I fail, I can't dream about it anymore. It's easier to settle for less."

"When you hear my lyrics, you hear the shots that I throw at people. I throw shots because I always been the underdog. I got rejected so many times, and I say it in my lyrics constantly."

"Being a feminist is being equal to do what a man do."

"I used to tell myself that I will always be myself."

"I love Lady Gaga. When I was in high school, I really wanted to dress like her."
