Speaker 1: being cast in the show. What was the Did you
Speaker 1: have to audition for this?
Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, yeah? And I went in and I had
Speaker 3: this kind of bad Korean accent and uh and then
Speaker 3: Amy goes, what are you doing? I said, well, she's
Speaker 3: from Korea, so I'm trying to Korean an accent. She goes, oh,
Speaker 3: stop doing that. Just just talk like a general. I said, oh, okay.
Speaker 1: Look like a general.
Speaker 3: That's why missus Kim talks that way.
Speaker 1: Right there in the room. She gave you the whole
Speaker 1: character right there in the room.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you remember who was in the room. Was
Speaker 1: Gavin Polone in the room?
Speaker 4: Was Yah?
Speaker 1: Was the director in the room to Leslie like a gladder?
Speaker 1: Was she in the room?
Speaker 3: I don't remember, Leslie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know. Leslie didn't say anything. She didn't say much.
Speaker 3: But oh, they're right.
Speaker 1: Gavin didn't really say anything either. So could you tell
Speaker 1: how many people that were auditioning for missus Kim were?
Speaker 1: There are a lot of actresses in the waiting room.
Speaker 3: There weren't there. We're all friends, so there's just maybe
Speaker 3: five people I knew?
Speaker 1: Oh really, so you knew everybody?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Pretty much?
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, but we're all friends. I was fine,
Speaker 1: we're nervous at all? Oddly, No, yeah, neither one was.
Speaker 1: I was. It's weird, right, You don't why because I
Speaker 1: never thought I was going to get it. I thought
Speaker 1: the script was too good. Some they're going to offer
Speaker 1: it to big stars because the movie people were starting
Speaker 1: to get into TV at that time, you know, they
Speaker 1: were flooding TV at that time. I thought, what's to
Speaker 1: get nervous about it, don't have a shot any my eyes.
Speaker 1: I might as well go in and just like have fun.
Speaker 3: You know that was probably me too. It's like what
Speaker 3: the heck?
Speaker 1: Right? Did you Did you get to the point where
Speaker 1: you were auditioning so often and nailing everything but weren't
Speaker 1: getting the offer. Was there a period of time in
Speaker 1: your career when that happened.
Speaker 3: No, it's touch and go.
Speaker 1: But uh right, yeah, do you get mostly everything you
Speaker 1: auditioned for?
Speaker 3: I don't audition that much anymore, so, so it's been okay.
Speaker 1: So you just do you just get offers.
Speaker 3: For a stage, I get offers, and for TV I
Speaker 3: have to I have to put myself on tape and.
Speaker 4: Yuck, gosh.
Speaker 1: That's amazing, amazing, Such an iconic character in an iconic
Speaker 1: show and the business still won't just make offers. It's
Speaker 1: very strange, very strange. Can you explain that?
Speaker 3: No, I gave up trying to understand this business. Scut
Speaker 3: it is what it is.
Speaker 1: You know, Susan. What would you like to ask a question?
Speaker 1: What's on your mind?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 5: So we just uh on the podcast, we just recapped
Speaker 5: your fire episode, which was the baby shower episode.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, do.
Speaker 5: You what do you remember from that last day of filming?
Speaker 3: I remember pushing that bed up the street. Oh my god,
Speaker 3: it was heavy and we had to do it over
Speaker 3: and over and over again. And that was one of
Speaker 3: the few times I was allowed to improv, so because
Speaker 3: that was a long way to push Yeah.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, you get to talk to some cars and
Speaker 1: say your headlights on or what turn cirgnals had stopped?
Speaker 1: You didn't come to a full stop, and the whole
Speaker 1: great stuff. Great stuff. So this character of Missus Kim
Speaker 1: was based on the producer gilmour Amy's right hand and
Speaker 1: best friend, Helen pye H and her mom knowing was
Speaker 1: based on a real person's relationship. Did that feel all
Speaker 1: the more special to you to portray this character.
Speaker 3: I think that's why it was so real, because you know,
Speaker 3: I've played moms before, but it's always kind of that
Speaker 3: fake Hollywood mom, you know from career Japan or Vietnam
Speaker 3: or something. But this one was actually three dimensional. And
Speaker 3: then when I talked to Helen and met her parents,
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, no, wonder it's based on real people. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and her mom was just both her parents, but her
Speaker 3: mom especially was wonderful in helping me. You know, when
Speaker 3: I had to speak Korean or if I had some
Speaker 3: cultural questions, she was great.
Speaker 1: That's very cool, Yes, really great. We know Missus Kim
Speaker 1: was strict, but funny, also loving, very complex personality. What
Speaker 1: was it like to create that role?
Speaker 3: It was really kind of It was easy because see,
Speaker 3: to me, in my mind, she was just the most loving, giving,
Speaker 3: caring mother in the world. And coming from an Asian background,
Speaker 3: that's how we do it. We're not hugging Feeley, we're
Speaker 3: not touching you know, I love you, I live. We
Speaker 3: do it by by protecting our children, by teaching them,
Speaker 3: by you know. So it's really interesting because usually when
Speaker 3: I meet Asian women who saw the show, they were like,
Speaker 3: oh my god, she loved her daughter so much, and
Speaker 3: the non Asian women would say, how can she be
Speaker 3: such a mean witch? But in my mind she was.
Speaker 3: She was not that at all. She just loved Lane
Speaker 3: so much. And that's why, you know, when Lane lied
Speaker 3: to her and she found all that stuff onto the floorboards,
Speaker 3: I just broke my heart because the first time your
Speaker 3: child lies to you, it's devastating. And yet you know,
Speaker 3: she didn't show it. She just kicked out of the house.
Speaker 1: Right right, right, right, Yeah, the most touching moment. As
Speaker 1: I recall so far, we're almost done season seven. I
Speaker 1: haven't seen the series at all this I'm experiencing it
Speaker 1: for the first time. But the most touching moment was
Speaker 1: when when you sat her down and you had you
Speaker 1: each had a shot of uh yes, and very very
Speaker 1: moving when you told her that she'd become a woman
Speaker 1: now and that you know you're going to be responsible
Speaker 1: for your own life, and that your job was basically over.
Speaker 1: And it was so spit It was such a bittersweet moment.
Speaker 1: It was so beautiful, It was so beautifully played. So
Speaker 1: we just we just recapped that lad last episode. As
Speaker 1: Susanne has mentioned with Lane's baby, share, what do you
Speaker 1: remember about your lat because that was your last episode,
Speaker 1: wasn't it. Yeah? Yeah, So what do you remember about
Speaker 1: that day, that last day of filming.
Speaker 3: Well, I didn't know that was gonna be it. I
Speaker 3: thought we were coming back.
Speaker 1: Yeah we did. None of us knew, did we got?
Speaker 3: So it was like, I have a good you know, summer,
Speaker 3: we'll see. Yeah. So I didn't know. The wait of
Speaker 3: it didn't hold extra weight because I just figured, oh,
Speaker 3: now it's our vacation. Yeah right.
Speaker 1: I thought we'd be doing that show for fifteen years.
Speaker 1: That thing was never going to end. They so loyal
Speaker 1: and so strong and the number is still strong and everything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was quite a shock, wasn't it. Well, when you
Speaker 1: found out that it was over, We're worried. You remember
Speaker 1: where you shocked?
Speaker 3: I think Keiko called me. I was like, what, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I said, it can't be over because you know you
Speaker 3: had your wedding yet. I figured they're not going to
Speaker 3: end the show without that wedding. You know they did.
Speaker 1: They did. I'm not going to get a wedding. It's
Speaker 1: not happening. Act it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 3: I still want it. I've had been kiting me as well.
Speaker 1: Scott, all right, you take you take the mantle now,
Speaker 1: because I'm I'm exhausted from it. You know they want
Speaker 1: If they don't want a wedding, they're not gonna.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the fans want that too, exactly. All the fans wanted.
Speaker 3: They waited seven years for it, you.
Speaker 1: Know, I mean, it's bizarre. It was bizarre. So one
Speaker 1: of our favorite scenes was when Laine and missus Kim
Speaker 1: did shots together. We talked about that, Uh, do you
Speaker 1: have favorite moment with Keiko?
Speaker 3: Maybe the wedding. Maybe the wedding, Yeah, because by that time,
Speaker 3: you know, we have been together, all of us have
Speaker 3: been together so much for over the years that it
Speaker 3: was I didn't have to act. I was like trying
Speaker 3: not to cry, you know, barely making it down the aisle.
Speaker 3: So that that was one of my favorite episodes. And
Speaker 3: I like the fact that we never talked about mister
Speaker 3: Kim and I know that we all had our ideas,
Speaker 3: but we never shared them. I thought that was pretty great.
Speaker 5: That was actually going to be one of the questions
Speaker 5: that I had is where do you think mister Kim
Speaker 5: was for seven years?
Speaker 3: I think he was on the road. I think it
Speaker 3: was a rock and roll star. Okay, so I got
Speaker 3: music in my blood and Keiko too.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: You know, really that that Lane and Missus Kim dynamic
Speaker 1: was so powerful that it was almost like a show
Speaker 1: within a show. It's like, let's go back to the
Speaker 1: Let's go back to that show. You know. If anything
Speaker 1: ever dragged or it was always a delight to get
Speaker 1: back to that dynamic because it was just it just
Speaker 1: was on fire. That thing just sparkled. So watching your
Speaker 1: relationship evolve with with Lane throughout the series, Yeah, do
Speaker 1: you think that missus Kim is happy with the way
Speaker 1: Lane's life turned out?
Speaker 3: No, not at all. I think she would want Lane
Speaker 3: to have gone back to the band and pursued her
Speaker 3: music and gone away from the store. I mean, I
Speaker 3: know she had to raise her kids, so I was thinking, Okay,
Speaker 3: you know, you always have your hopes and dreams for
Speaker 3: when we did the reboot, I thought, maybe the boys
Speaker 3: we have our own band now, and you know, we're
Speaker 3: going on the road pretty soon. But that didn't happen.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't know. I love that idea. I know she wouldn't.
Speaker 3: And then I'd play the tambourine, you know, I was ready.
Speaker 1: Does anyone ask some questions?
Speaker 3: Sure?
Speaker 5: At what point in the in the series do you
Speaker 5: think was the turning point for missus Kim to let
Speaker 5: Lane go and be her own person.
Speaker 3: Probably living with the boys. Even though it freaked her out,
Speaker 3: she didn't, she accepted it, you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: There was a lot of concessions she made over the
Speaker 3: years that were surprising. So she wasn't a stagnant character.
Speaker 3: She was growing and learning from Lane. Yeah as much. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I agree, But Lane was the perfect little girl.
Speaker 5: Lane is one of my favorite characters. I will say
Speaker 5: I love Lane more than I love Rory. And there
Speaker 5: I said it out loud.
Speaker 3: Let's see.
Speaker 5: Do you think that there was any part of missus
Speaker 5: Kim sacrificing herself? This kind of touches on what we're
Speaker 5: just saying, where missus Kim sacrifices herself to keep her
Speaker 5: daughter in her life.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's all for her daughter, everything for her daughter.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And then when after the babies are born, for the kids,
Speaker 3: for the grandkids.
Speaker 5: So missus Kim was a tough cookie, but it all
Speaker 5: came from love. Like you were saying, that's how you know,
Speaker 5: moms show instead of being touchy feely, they show it
Speaker 5: through their actions and being protective, et cetera. So did
Speaker 5: you relate to her or did you have someone in
Speaker 5: your life that was like her?
Speaker 3: I was raised like that, so it was normal to me.
Speaker 5: Okay, if you could change any element of the Lane
Speaker 5: Missus Kim storyline or dynamic, what change would you make.
Speaker 3: I don't think I would have changed anything. I think
Speaker 3: by not over talking, you know, it says more. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: our relationship. So I liked it. I think that Amy
Speaker 3: and Dann are just phenomenal writers. Yeah, and they did
Speaker 3: a great job.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I think it was good because it's basically at its core,
Speaker 5: it's a mother daughter show, and so I think that
Speaker 5: they did a good job of portraying the whole spectrum
Speaker 5: of all the mother daughter relationships in the show. So
Speaker 5: I agree with you there. And see, I'm gonna skip
Speaker 5: this next question because I really want to ask between
Speaker 5: Missus Kim, Emily Gilmore, and or ale I who was
Speaker 5: the best mother and who was the worst mother?
Speaker 3: Of course I was the best mother, the worst mother?
Speaker 3: I don't know, there was no worst mothers. I don't
Speaker 3: think everybody. Everybody makes mistakes, even Missus Kim. Yeah, that's
Speaker 3: what was wonderful about the series, right, Nobody was two dimensional.
Speaker 3: Everybody was three dimensional. Everybody had faults.
Speaker 5: Yeah, everybody's just doing their best.
Speaker 3: Everybody's doing their best right in regardless.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it doesn't always turn out right, but yeah, neither
Speaker 5: is life, you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Okay, Emily, what did it mean to you as an
Speaker 1: Asian American to portray a mother daughter relationship on a
Speaker 1: network TV show like this? Was it a huge did
Speaker 1: you feel like it was a huge responsibility.
Speaker 3: I didn't feel the responsibility that some people feel. I
Speaker 3: just thought, wow, this is really cool because I couldn't
Speaker 3: think of any relationship in the history of TV till
Speaker 3: that point. Well, I did a series called Gung Host
Speaker 3: where we kind of had a family, but it's very
Speaker 3: rare and that only ran for a season. But this
Speaker 3: one ran for seven seasons, and it really explored this
Speaker 3: dynamic of a mother and daughter relationship that was real
Speaker 3: and I hadn't seen anything like that ever on TV
Speaker 3: in my life. So I was just so very grateful
Speaker 3: for every episode that I did.
Speaker 1: What reaction did the Asian American community have at the
Speaker 1: time the show was airing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, Kik and I thought, oh, because we're
Speaker 3: both of Japanese American Japanese ancestry, so we thought we'd
Speaker 3: get flat. But at least for me, I didn't. I
Speaker 3: didn't get any. I got a lot of good feedback
Speaker 3: from Asian Americans of all, regardless of where their families
Speaker 3: came from, because it was kind of a universal relationship
Speaker 3: that they could relate to. So I was very lucky.
Speaker 3: All the feedback that I heard was very positive, very positive.
Speaker 1: And how were you recognized by Were you showered with
Speaker 1: awards from that community for portraying this character?
Speaker 3: Oh heck no, no, nothing, no, but I'm acknowledged so
Speaker 3: that's good. I like to be acknowledged.
Speaker 1: Yeah, in portraying somebody like missus Kim, what did you
Speaker 1: learn about yourself as an actor that you.
Speaker 3: Didn't I think, because you know, I have a stepson,
Speaker 3: but I never had children of my own, And the
Speaker 3: depth of love and maybe it's probably it's way more
Speaker 3: than that, but that I over the seven years that
Speaker 3: I had for Lane was kind of shocking to me.
Speaker 3: Sometimes it was like, oh my god, my heart can't
Speaker 3: get any bigger. How I couldn't possibly love this creature
Speaker 3: anymore than I do. So it was a it was
Speaker 3: an eye opener. And even when she would disappoint me
Speaker 3: or fight me, I was overwhelmed by by my compassion,
Speaker 3: by my love for her, and that was mixed with anger,
Speaker 3: but still, you know, it was a nice surprise that
Speaker 3: I had over the seven years.
Speaker 1: Are you recognized all the time when you go.
Speaker 3: Out pretty much? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Still right? Right? Do you find that the people are
Speaker 1: getting younger all the time? Yeah? Weird, it's quite quite wild.
Speaker 3: Well, sometimes I see all three generations, the grandmother and
Speaker 3: the mother and their daughter, and all three of them
Speaker 3: are Gilmore Girls fans. So it's it's wonderful. It's still good.
Speaker 1: It's just great. Auntie's experience is great. With these fans, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they love the show so much. God.
Speaker 5: It definitely has a multi generational appeal. Like there's so
Speaker 5: many fans that are just devoted fans that weren't even
Speaker 5: born when the show aired, and actually here they are.
Speaker 3: Like their whole world is Gilmore Girls.
Speaker 5: It just speaks to everyone.
Speaker 1: They weren't some of them weren't even born when the
Speaker 1: Netflix episodes aired. They're that young, they like I do
Speaker 1: these conventions and personal appearances sometimes and and the age,
Speaker 1: the age of these kids, I mean they're so young
Speaker 1: and they know the show. Yeah. Yeah, there's their mother,
Speaker 1: their grandmother sometimes their great grandmother and all the fellas.
Speaker 1: I mean they're all there. And oh, you know, she
Speaker 1: she got me watching the show. I never thought I'd
Speaker 1: like it, But I'm more obsessed with it than she is.
Speaker 1: You know. You know, it's it's when here's a here's
Speaker 1: a question. Did you ever think the show would have
Speaker 1: this kind of a lasting impact on the culture and
Speaker 1: on on on the fans. I mean I didn't either, right, Yeah, And.
Speaker 3: I'm watching TV and their lines are like I find
Speaker 3: out what show. It was some some new sitcom you
Speaker 3: know that. What do you think this is Gilmore Girls?
Speaker 3: I mean it's because a lot of times they refer
Speaker 3: to the Gilmore Girls in today's sitcoms, right, you know episodics,
Speaker 3: and it's like, oh my god, yeah, it's wonderful.
Speaker 1: It is, it's it's Uh. I remember getting a residual
Speaker 1: check and I didn't know what the hell it was for.
Speaker 1: And I saw on it it said Euphoria And you
Speaker 1: know that show that Sydney Sweeney was on that launched
Speaker 1: and Zendaia Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney and launched all these
Speaker 1: big careers. And uh, I'd never seen it and I
Speaker 1: didn't remember being on it. And I was like, so
Speaker 1: I So I called the manager and I said, was like,
Speaker 1: did I do an episode of like in a comotos
Speaker 1: state or something? Did did I do an episode of
Speaker 1: of of of of Euphoria? No? No, but they there
Speaker 1: was a clip from Gilmore Girls and Luke Steiner's It's
Speaker 1: It's all over the place, It's it's all over Culture's wild. Anyway,
Speaker 1: what is your best and most lasting memory from being
Speaker 1: a part of that revered cast and such a revered show.
Speaker 3: What one of my one of the things that I
Speaker 3: will always remember how Amy would not have fake flowers
Speaker 3: on the set, so we'd always have real flowers. So,
Speaker 3: you know, we had a lot of big events with
Speaker 3: lots of flowers and they were all real. So when
Speaker 3: you walked walked on set, it was just glorious. And
Speaker 3: then then they always let me take some home if
Speaker 3: at the end of the day, so that was even met.
Speaker 1: It also smelled good. I remember the smell of those sets.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had many shows where it just smelled. It
Speaker 3: was wonderful, right.
Speaker 1: Right, right, Well, that is a perfect note to transition
Speaker 1: into rapid Fire. It's a little segment we called rapid fire. Okay,
Speaker 1: there is no pressure to answer the questions quickly though.
Speaker 1: All right, so here we go. How do you like
Speaker 1: your coffee with cream?
