Korean-American actress Arden Cho is best known for her role as Kira Yukimura on the American TV series "Teen Wolf," but she's also a big fan of k-dramas and k-movies.
And she hopes one day to appear in a Korean production.
The singer, vlogger, model and actress has had parts on the American television shows "CSI: NY," "Pretty Little Liars" and "Rizzoli and Isles." But she said that she would love to appear in a Korean movie. One of her favorite films is "A Moment To remember," starring Son Ye Jin and Jung Woo Sung.
"A Moment to Remember" will always be one of my favorite movies," Cho told The Korea Times in a recent interview. "I'm a big fan of Son Ye Jin in this film and love her character. I would love to do a beautiful film like this or an action film like "Swiri."
"Swiri" was a 1999 k-movie that starred Yun Jin Kim of "Lost" and "Mistresses."
Cho, who served as a host at the 2014 DramaFever awards in New York City, also likes k-dramas. One of her favorites stars Lee Min Ho.
"I really enjoyed the drama "City Hunter" and would love to do something like that as well," said Cho.
She's also ready to take on the challenge of acting in a saeguk.
"I also hope one day I could do a Korean period piece," she said. "I think it would be challenging to do a historical film or drama but I'm sure it would be quite the experience."
For now filming "Teen Wolf" is keeping her busy.
"I haven't had much time for music these days because it's been a busy year with the drama," she said. "We've been filming since the start of the year. I feel really fortunate to be a series regular on a hit show and I'm also signed on for season five and six, so I am very thankful for this opportunity."
On "Teen Wolf" she plays a kitsune, a mythical fox-like creature not unlike a gumiho. Her character is involved in a love triangle with a boy who is a werewolf.
Her character was originally meant to be half Japanese but the producers of the show thought she was so right for the part that they rewrote the character to also be half Korean and even cast a Korean father for her.
Cho is happy to have fans from around the world and hopes her show will be received well in Korea.
