Quotes

“The most famous art for a star is to create a creation in own heart.”

“Love is gambling word, sometimes you loses in game but you won all.”

“Drama is the most sound art in the filmography, you can go deep within it, some precious will appeared.”

“My actual personality is honest but also timid. I would be concerned about hurting other people, so I couldn’t be blunt.”

“There have been so many rumors associating me with certain male models and other relationships I’ve never been in, that I feel as though I’ve been through those relationships already, so I don’t have to go through them again. I feel like I’ve dated around a hundred people by now; it’s exhausting.”

“I am not the type who can easily forget the character that I played. After the drama has ended, I feel empty and bored.”

“So many people ask me if I don’t eat. They ask me, ‘Do you only eat salads?’. I think even if I say no, it’s meaningless. People won’t believe me.”

“Exercise is all about frequency, not intensity. Even if it’s only 10 minutes a day, it’s important to keep it up, every day. It’s much better to exercise a small amount every day than to go out one day and work out until you’re exhausted.”
