I'm so happy to have all this support from everyone around the world, and I'm forever thankful for all of them.

I have two aunts and three cousins in Korea as well.

I definitely have a lot of Korean-American fans, which is amazing.

I just want to be that young girl from L.A. who snowboards and gets her nails done.

Being in a class with kids, meeting new people, and borrowing notes from other students - I've never done that before. I've always had to fend for myself.

'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' is interesting, intriguing.

Honestly, I didn't like snowboarding when I was a little girl. As I got older, it became something I did with my dad. When I was 10, I knew I was good for my age, but I never felt that I was prodigy-level or anything like that.

I just go into a contest looking to put down a good run. As long as I feel like I've done what I came to do, and I'm happy with my riding, where I end up doesn't matter that much to me.

I think the goal is always to be both. I put more effort into the technical side of my riding, but style is very important nowadays.

Just going to the Olympics would be a dream come true. I could finish last, and it would still be an amazing experience.

If I had a message to give my dad, it'd probably be, 'Thank you, thank you, thank you.' He's helped me so much on this crazy journey. Giving up his job, being away from my mom, and being away from home for that much just because of me? It's a lot. And I thank him for it.

I had to grow up a little fast.

I always have fun on the mountain, so it's always nice to go back out there and do what I love.

Luckily for me, snowboarding doesn't really feel like work unless I'm actually doing stuff that's, like, work-ish, but when I'm just snowboarding, I'm having so much fun.

Hopefully I get to do more than one Olympics in my lifetime.

I moved to Switzerland when I was 8, and during our breaks, we'd go to snowboard, and he'd take me to the mountains; we'd take a train. It was kind of crazy, you know. When I think about it, I wake up at 4, take a train to the mountains, sleep in the train and then go snowboard, and then come back. It was quite a mission.

I did my first contest, and I got third, and my dad was, like, 'Wow, she has potential.' And I went back when I was 7, and I won. And my dad's like, 'All right,' and then he dropped everything.

To me, snowboarding is really an art form, and I think every athlete, every snowboarder has her own style, and that makes them stand out.

I was, like, talking to these kids, and I look up, and there was, like, 25 cameras around me. And I ran. I ran away. I, like, straight up ran away, and I was so scared, and then, like, it happened, and after I was done, it kinda sunk in.

To me, the Olympics are very important, obviously, but it's not something that I'm gonna change everything for.
