As a 49 year old Korean born in America, I’m still in disbelief that I’m seeing these two women as stars in Hollywood. So proud of them.

[moonj]

Who is making the pairings this year?! They seriously need a 😏 raise.

Hoyeon is so lucky because Squid Game was her first ever acting gig and look how far she's gone with all these exposure events that even actors who've worked for years do't get immediately. Love that for herrr

[shivika]

I’m just surprised abt how quickly Ho-Yeon has learned English . Just some time ago she needed a translator for her SAG acceptance speech

[abbydelone]

I love how invested hoyeon is in everything sandra says. I would kill to see them play a mother/daughter duo

[ayeeshahm]

As a black woman, this conversation makes me so happy. Every community deserves to feel seen, represented and to have icons that mirror and reflect them. 🙏🏾

Sandra Oh should start her own talk show, she's such a great interviewer!

[armitchell]

Watching Sandra Oh's face light up when Hoyeon mentioned that Grey's Anatomy was popular in Korea and that she watched the show was emotional to witness.

[kaptainzdragon]

We need to see Hoyeon in more stuff. Her acting is so raw.

[Chakalakakhan]

Ho-Yeon is such a bombshell. And her English is getting so good, there is no way that an American actor could be as fluent in Korean as she is in English. And I could feel her pain in the bathroom scene, she's an incredible actress.

Sandra Oh describing how she didn’t feel like she was taking care of her mental and physical health during Greys Anatomy, makes more sense on why she’s so adamant on not returning, I think Greys Anatomy is a representation of everything she doesn’t wanna do anymore for her health.

Hoyeon is so impressive. She went from being a model to debuting in one of the most popular netflix shows. She delivered such an amazing performanced and portrayed a character so well despite it being her first day on the job. Shes also so articulate and elegant in the way she speaks. All of her success is definitely deserved, hope her career continues on this high <3

Jung Ho-Yeon's genuineness and eagerness and Sandra Oh's calm wisdom and kindness just go so well together, i love this so much 🥺

[ferngordon]

I think just based off of how Ho-Yeon speaks, you can hear how much her heart goes into everything she says and does so I believe with that her acting career will go very far. Lovely interview with two beautiful people!

[steffie]

I really wouldn’t mind hearing Sandra talk for hours. She’s such a smart, well spoken, charming person 😍

[Jojo-tjlz]

Sandra is sitting there, like her mother, when her daughter is just talking to her…it’s like a normal conversation between a mother and her daughter…love it

And I love, how Sandra is speaking slowly sometimes, because of her
Raww

[serene]

I love how hoyeon articulates her opinions, she has such a comforting yet mature way of speaking, much admiration for her and for the great sandra oh

[JustineOh]

My favorite part of this conversation was when Sandra asked Hoyeon about her well-being and what she does to take care of herself. Her wanting to "relieve" Hoyeon of the pressure and responsibility as an emerging Asian talent was refreshing to see. Sandra is the perfect mentor (and "sunbaenim" figure) for Hoyeon and her growth mentality - wishing continued success for them both as a fellow Korean-American!

[aimeehofstander]

“When things are difficult that is a real opportunity to grow” Sandra Oh exudes such wisdom. I could listen to her talk for hours and not get tired 😩

[koonshia]

can you imagine them playing a mother and daughter role on a project? the chemistry is there!
