Quotes

“[Marriage]’s something I’ve been continuously thinking about since my 20s. When I look at my interviews, it appears that way. I was like, ‘I’ll get married in my 20s’ or ‘When I’m 27,’ and that turned into ‘I’ll probably happen in my 30s.’”

“I want to overcome and make up for my regrets. I keep moving forward by thinking about that. When I overcome one thing, another appears, and I want to overcome that, too.”

“[On her friendship with Jessica of Girls’ Generation] I think we’ve been friends for over 10 years. She and I even went to the swimming pool by ourselves.”

“My waist is short, so I don’t look good when wearing a bikini.”

“[On her plastic surgery] I got double eyelid surgery in junior high school. My mom let me get it so I could become prettier. I also got my nose done, but that’s only because my nose was crooked during junior high.”

“They say that people are forgetful beings. Once I finish a project that I went through a hard time for, I feel a sense of accomplishment over the fact that I’ve once again created a new character.”
