I got to go to New York Comic-Con. I've never been and I've heard it's crazy, so I'd love to see it. To be quite honest, I'd like for people to want us to be there, too. I'm hoping. I'm knocking on wood, so we'll see.

More quotes by Steven Yeun
I'm not much of a horror fan. When it comes to ghost stuff and demon stuff, I can't watch that.
Steven Yeun
If you ask any of the other actors, they'd probably say nice things because they're nice people, but I was always like, Oh gosh, I hope I'm doing this right. I was very hard on myself, and I continue to be. That's why it's sometimes hard for me to digest watching myself on television. There is some pressure.
Steven Yeun
Yeah, it's scary. During filming, it wasn't just jitters from being the newer guy there or the greenest guy there. It was also fear of not messing up such an important character.
Steven Yeun
Maybe it was just me shorting myself to hedge my expectations. As a fan, I was excited about the project. If you look at the body of work for the people involved, I was excited about the project, but I didn't really know. There were people saying, I think we're going to be part of something huge.
Steven Yeun
Whatever I lack in size and strength and speed, I kind of make up for in being grittier. When it comes to something like basketball I'm definitely not the best guy on the court, but I love elbowing and pushing people out or boxing them out.
Steven Yeun
I felt like I've needed to ask my parents up until about four years ago about everything. They have helped me tremendously, I came out of college with no debt. Everything they made, they just poured into my education.
Steven Yeun
People think that Detroit is this barren wasteland. While there are parts that are not as nice as others, the misconception is not true. It is definitely not a thriving community in Detroit, but it is getting there. There is a lot of heart and love in this city.
Steven Yeun
At the end of the day, if you can't say a line right, it does not matter who your contacts are.
Steven Yeun
I grew up in Michigan, so I played hockey, football and basketball. I played a little bit of lacrosse, too. My brother played more lacrosse and ran track.
Steven Yeun
I remember the first day I got there, they started the take and after four takes I was on the ground, on my back, with a banana and a Twizzler in my hand, and my face was green, and they said, You can't get back on set for another 30 minutes. That was a, Welcome to Atlanta, and that put everything in perspective.
Steven Yeun
I think there are fans who love the genre to begin with, and there are fans who love the comic book to begin with, but fans of the comic book aren't necessarily fans of the genre. There are obviously a lot of those people who love both, but I'm not a huge fan of that genre, personally.
Steven Yeun
I'm good at keeping secrets, but if it's not something super serious I usually tell people not to tell me because I'll tell someone else.
Steven Yeun
I like documentaries because there's nothing to nitpick or criticize about scenes if they aren't just right. It's about honesty and real-life circumstances coming out. Granted it can be swayed by how people tell that story, but overall, I like it because it is true.
Steven Yeun
I took up boxing to get in shape for filming because it's grueling - all the running, the heat, the yelling, the crying that we do.
Steven Yeun
I've always loved drama. This is a blessing because I can show a little bit of what I can do, and hopefully more, in the future.
Steven Yeun
The most fun thing about doing the show is that, as a nerd, the fun has been in learning and having it be like a grad school for me, every day. Every moment is a new experience. Every conversation is a new gain.
Steven Yeun
I want to stretch myself. Another reason why I'm so fortunate is that this is a drama and I've been brought up in comedy.
Steven Yeun
Somehow, I landed The Walking Dead and it's great because it stretches and works different muscles for me, and it really lets me stretch myself as a performer. Now, I'm really excited to flex my comedy muscle. Hopefully, I'll get some opportunities to do that.
Steven Yeun
If anything, the way that you feel is a direct indicator of how far we've come from our symbiotic relationship with nature. In that way, when someone hangs a mirror to every single blemish that's on us, it makes you really reassess what your morals are.
Steven Yeun
Maybe it's a cultural thing, being Korean, but my first reflex has always been to exude humility - but it doesn't help you in acting. For acting, humility isn't the best thing. It'll weaken your work.
Steven Yeun
