hi i'm steven yun and i'm going undercover on the internet this is actually me [Music] first up twitter how was getting naked with conan o'brien every bit as magical as you could imagine very tall pale kind man getting naked with you that's like it's like up there you know bucket list stuff next why is minari under a foreign film category when it is filled in the u.s and produced by asian americans i thought foreign film means you know a film from a foreign country hashtag golden globes i don't know you know i mean i think rules and institutions fail us i'm just glad that i get to be part of a film that challenges those ideas and presents the ways in which these rules and institutions misunderstand our actual lives america is made up of a lot of different things including different cultures different people different points of view and that's kind of what makes this country so beautiful i wouldn't know the answer to your question um you should ask them replied i miss you on walking dead tears were shed at your demise were you disappointed you didn't get to leave the show as a walker no being on that show for seven years i saw what it took to be a zombie on that show and um i just don't have what it takes mostly the contacts seem like they hurt so i'm very glad that i didn't do that next how would you describe working with bong joon ho compared to other american directors or was there even a big difference hashtag okja director bong is a singular entity he is like no one else the best way to describe it for me was in the frame he kind of has an idea of where people fit uh physically in that space and then you're kind of free to be your character within like the parameter that he's given to you i love directors like that where you just trust them completely outright i read it no seriously it's it's actually me a little random but stephen younes improved his korean by leaps and bounds over the last several years i don't know if he was being formerly coach slash taught or if it's just a natural result of all the korean projects he's taken up but his accent is barely noticeable in this trailer thank you yes my korean did improve and it was because i got to work in korea but i will say uh there was conscious choice of making my character speak bad korean and then with me i worked really hard to try to make sure that i sounded like a korean american person who had spent some time away from his motherland and so korean variety shows really did nothing for my accent [Music] back to twitter did ben murder hemi is he a serial killer or not me and my girl have been debating over this and our heads are about to explode out of confusion please tell oh no director lee told me halfway through filming that i needed to pick whether ben was a good person misunderstood or a bad person and uh i did and then he asked me what i chose and i said i wasn't gonna tell him and then that that's pretty much it nobody knows only i know posted i tried real minari about five years ago it has a unique taste uh swampy i know many older koreans love this stuff did you eat this stuff as a kid i prefer cilantro though not soapy taste to me i hope to see the film soon cool brian um this is where i'll be honest as a korean american kid i don't always know what i'm eating you know i just eat whatever my mom has made so uh i don't know if i've explicitly eaten minari or not i don't remember any swampy flavor in general with korean food yeah that's that's kind of you know my diaspora reality next youtube [Music] there's something very randall parky about the director oh that means i love randall park um what does that mean uh also how are he and steven semi related so isaac is my wife's cousin but the cool part was was the first year i ever met my wife in chicago she took me to go see his first film munyan rongabo which is incredible i just never connected any dots of trying to work together with him or even even saw that as an option until i was presented with this beautiful script that he wrote and i'm very blessed for it he's a wonderful person and if you mean that randall park is a wonderful person and that's that's why he seems randall parking replied [Music] can you two do another travel show together i loved you two traveling in korea i don't know you'd have to ask conan you know he's a busy man i mean i would love to that'd be so fun next [Music] why does he identify as a second generation kid i thought he was born in korea i grew up calling myself a 1.5 generation kid because i was born in korea and i immigrated here so i find myself in a very specific way more twitter hi no idea if you're in charge of your own twitter or if you answered to questions but i heard you say your name wasn't actually stephen but hang yup as as pronounced wikipedia says your name was hung yup is hung up pronounced hanging up or is wikipedia wrong i i just said how it's pronounced it's hung up i don't know how you heard an h maybe you should yeah that's it hey i'm from regina saskatchewan when you lived in regina sketchman what did you think of it i was too young to form like deep deep memories of that place actually it's kind of sad my maternal grandmother passed away when we were there and i just have this eerie memory of being taken to this house where all my aunts and uncles gathered and they were mourning my grandmother's death that's how i remember saskatchewan i'm sorry replied are you still an accidental expert at bowling it's not by accident that's like decade of church league bowling domination next quora how can i have a hollywood career as an asian what steps do i take first and foremost don't forget that you're also a human that has their own unique reality you should just try to find out what is uniquely yours and speak from that place i don't think any actor's journey you can replicate so get out of the box posted all right uh that's it uh for me thank you guys for the questions i'm gonna get off the internet for for a while thanks
