Quotes

“The range of roles offered to me still includes those strong characters. I don’t know what roles I will undertake next, but if I’m given another strong character, then for the sake of the project I try to empty myself. What I mean is that I try to go blank, to be normal as I can be in my daily life so that when I take on another similar role, it doesn’t repeat what I already did.”

“I can’t wait around forever for a different kind of role, so I had to find my own breakthroughs. Even though they [the roles] may be similar, I carry the responsibility of twisting them to show a different kind of coolness, a different kind of strength from my prior roles.”

“My roles have also allowed me to be this successful, career-driven women in a society. Come to think of it, even in this age, I didn’t really have a lot of role models, adults to look up to, and when I was portraying such characters, I was acting out those adults I wanted to meet, those friends, seniors who can take hold of my hand and lead me.”

“The first reason I chose ‘Mine’ was because it told the story of a sexual minority. Although there are a lot of works about homosexuality with men, there doesn’t seem to be a lot about women.”
