But if there’s something you gain, there’s also something you can lose. Therefore, I try not to showcase my personal life.

Usually, I'm attracted by screenplays that stir my curiosity. I try to ask myself why the writer wants to tell this story.

I tend to pick projects that give me a sense of freshness. So my filmography, especially after hitting my 30s, has become a lot more diverse.

As long as you have a television screen or a streamer, we are living in an era where we can connect and enjoy any content from any place around the world very easily.

I think an actor's filmography represents the direction and the course of the acting that an actor has pursued. I'm filling in my filmography to let people know who I am and how I see the world as an actor.
