I was on an army show, and in the army - especially in Korean culture - there's a very, very strict hierarchy. Obviously, you would not talk informally or disrespectfully to your commanding officer. But me, in my limited Korean, I basically told my commanding officer, 'Thou shalt forget!' The Korean public thought it was really funny.
My dad came to Korea one time, and then he pulls out a whole bunch of my headshot prints. He's like, 'Amber, you need to sign all of this for me because all of my friends want these.' I guess that's when I kind of realized I was 'famous.'
I was born and raised in West Hills. I moved to Korea when I was 15. I've been back and forth since.
When I first debuted back in 2009, K-Pop was already starting to get bigger because of the Internet. And that's how I found it, because I'm not Korean.
If I had to speak in front of a Korean audience, I would be hard pressed to sound other than a little girl.
A long time ago, when Korea was having a hard time, the Philippines came to Korea and helped the Korean people. We're very thankful, as a country.
I would like to represent the face of Korea; so that people know there is a Choi Si-won in Korea.
I hope the entire Korean culture like films can be enjoyed by many others.
Kang-ho Song, in Korea, is like top of the food chain.
In the States actors get their own trailers, but in Korea all the actors group up in one room, and stay there together the whole day.
