I believe Korea is making the best movies. Only in Korea - you can do whatever you want to without any rating system or whatever. They can make world-class karate movies and make lots of money, which is very important.
It doesn't matter where you make movies or what the size of the movie you make is. It's a very hard job - especially director.
Hollywood industry people are very spoiled. I don't think they can adjust to the insane, no-money, super-hard working tradition of Japanese filmmaking. I don't think any American can go through that. They don't want to work more than twelve hours and they want Saturday and Sunday off.
If I could finance my own movies, I would be doing it.
Wherever I make a movie, no matter what size it is, it's always about a straightforward communication with the producer.
The Hollywood system has its own problems. Movie making is never an easy job.
I brought in two genius guys from Korea. Guys who did my favorite movies like Oldboy and The Man from Nowhere. It was fun working with them. Even though they don't speak Japanese and I don't speak Korean, I knew from day one we were speaking the same language because they love my work and I love theirs. We instantly connected. There was zero frustration.

I don't really consider myself a horror director or a violent director at all.
