Despite his fears, he has further admitted that he feels honoured to be a Western actor in a Korean film.
“I was aware that very few Western actors make a Korean Film, and I felt very, very honoured and very, very privileged,” he continued.
“I mean, with 72 films [under my belt], I’ve worked with a crew that has been so professional, so fast, so focused.
“It was kind of mind-blwoing actually; the commitment and dedication [the film crew had on] all their individual jobs was quite awe-inspiring,” he added.
