There's a humble beauty about listening to period instruments that I like.

As I grow older I spend more time with my wife, and gradually my interest in the woman's world is growing.

When I grow older and less popular, there will come a time when I have to shoot films on low budgets.

If you would ask me what my ideal process is, I would say, long pre-production, long production and long post-production.

When it comes to remaking my own films in the English language, I can only imagine that it is a very boring process, I wouldn't ever dream of it.

A film set is a workplace for me; it's my office, and nobody really wants to be in a stressful work environment.

If your work requires you to travel, you will understand that there's no vacation destination like home.

I am not going to do a film based on a bad scenario just to make a big Hollywood film or work with Hollywood stars.

The atmosphere of Catholicism in Korea is quite different to the way it is practised and perceived in Europe or the U.S.

People who really try to be conscious of what they have done, who take responsibility, to me these kinds of people are heroes.
