- I want to keep acting like I do today. This is what makes me happy the most. I hope to see my name associated to the term 'actress' one day, I want to become an actress who can match this word. That's why I think the time I spend everyday out of awareness can help me for my acting.
- [interview, 2014] When I was a kid, I watched people singing and acting on TV and I thought it was fun. When I was in my 3rd year of middle school, I was street cast. Hm... They wanted to make sure I had some talent. I wondered if I failed the audition and study, or if it wouldn't be a good thing to do well, what would be good for me... This was when I entered the trainee life.
- When I debuted, I thought I knew what I was getting into. It seemed easy. However, acting is hard, it's hard to show myself to people and build a good image. When I talked with this kind of meaning, there were some misunderstandings because that didn't properly convey my intention.
- [explaining her ideal type] Well, I don't specifically have an ideal type but I hope he would be someone who is warm and thoughtful.
- [asked if she received high praise on portraying Yoo Rachel, 2013] I think people saw me in a very good way. I lacked a lot, but I feel like it was all thanks to writer Kim Eun Sook, director Kim Shin Hyo and the good actors. That's why I'm worried about my next project and I feel the pressure.
- [asked on if she changes her lifestyle when she portrays a character, 2014] I do. When I take on a role, I have many concerns. When I played Rachel, I watched Kim Eun Sook's previous dramas in order not to be awkward with the strong lines and I researched on the dialogue tone. I looked for and listened to songs similar to her emotions. I also kept repeating my lines everyday to be comfortable with the words.
- [asked what is aging gracefully, 2018 interview cosmopolitan] It's about being more honest about your own emotions, about understanding others better. I think that's what acting is about. According to how much you understand the character you portray and how much you can relate, you'll feel affection for it and the way you express i twill be different. I think it's not different from the way you face people. That's why, as I get older, I hope I'll become an adult who loves more, who can see the world through a warm-hearted vision.
- [asked on her character Yoo Rachel from 'The Heirs', 2014] I'm still a rookie actress, so I haven't played many roles. If you were to ask me to choose [the most memorable memory] I wouldn't be able to pick one. I'm happy about the CF for Oran-C that put my name out there. I'm happy that I was able to meet director Jang Jin while filming my first movie 'Romantic Heaven'. I'm happy that I was able to do a musical drama like 'What's Up'. I was happy to film 'High Kick' while I was in middle school.
