“I'm not an activist, I'm an actor. I don't want to be an activist.” — John Cho Quote

I'm not an activist, I'm an actor. I don't want to be an activist.

Even though there's a lot of horror from Asia in the American cinematic tradition, I hadn't seen Asians at the center of it.

With 'The Exorcist,' a lot of things went into it. I hadn't seen the show until they asked me, and then I checked the show out and thought it was very well done.

I've found that one's language abilities, especially for Korean kids like me, get frozen at the age you immigrated. So I've always associated Korea with being a child and being infantilized through my inability to speak.

You're trying to grow up, and you don't want to be like your parents, and that gets mixed up with being Korean... They brought their values from Korea, and I accepted them because I didn't know anything more. But as I grow older, I feel more Korean every year; it's very strange.

I've been on both sides: the victim and the villain. I was the victimised model, and everything from my weight to my fertility was held up for discussion. And then I was the person that could garner some kind of positive outcome, by taking on the role of vice chairman of the British Fashion Council and becoming an activist of body image.

Everyone is impressed by Modi-ji's leadership. Many big leaders want to work with him. Similarly, as an activist, I want to join the party.

I am an activist. I have a really big pulpit with my fiction and I love knowing that I can make people think.

People are not going to change because an activist goes around shouting.
