Personal Quote:

I enjoy acting so much that I have no need or desire to be called a great actor. This is partly my personality, but also the fact that I get so absorbed in acting, to where I can't see or think of anything else. I can't tell you what great acting is, but for me, it is to give everything you have with honesty, sincerity and persistence. See more »

Trivia:

Selects "The Contact" (1997), "Harmonium in My Memory" (1998), "Happy End" (1999), and "Secret Sunshine" (2007) as the most representative work of her career. [Source: Pre-Cannes '07 interview with Korean film critic.]. See more »
