If you are watching my films and wondering, am I missing humorous speak because I'm not Korean? Am I missing out? You don't have to worry, because you're only missing probably about a few cents worth out of your ticket price.

Park Chan-wook
Some audiences might find homosexuality an uncomfortable subject matter, and a character who is a Japanese collaborator is always uncomfortable.
Park Chan-wook

Park Chan-wook
I believe 'love' is very nice to hear, but it's used so much that it's come to a point where it's almost meaningless.
Park Chan-wook
If I want to relax and not do anything, I don't want to leave home.
Park Chan-wook
When I was growing up, we were taught in school that North Koreans, and especially the North Korean leadership, were all devils.
Park Chan-wook
I did have a feminist side to me, just not in such a pronounced way.
Park Chan-wook
I don't usually watch a lot of TV, but Mad Men changed my perspective. I admire Matthew Weiner who came up with the idea and wrote such a great TV series, and the broadcasting company for being bold enough to air such a series.
