Being chosen for the part of Jin Kwon on Perdus (2004) meant that he had to relearn speaking Korean very fast, a language he hadn't effectively spoken since his childhood.

[on why he loves theater] There's something about being in a house with an audience, and having that immediate feedback. I started acting because of that energy; it's what feeds me on stage and informs my choices. What's great in theater is that you can sustain the arc of a character for a full three hours, whereas in film or TV, you have to create that arc in little pieces, and usually out of sequence.
