It all began as a mere interest in acting, but it eventually developed into a dream. I dedicated myself to studying acting before taking on any roles.”

In response to the statement, “Many people assume she is half Korean because of her striking appearance. She has grown accustomed to being mistaken for being half Korean since she was young,” the actress clarified, “That is all true. I do sometimes wish I was half Korean now, as it would make things simpler. However, the reality is that I am not. I have considered taking a DNA test in the future.”
