I feel like I can represent both countries, in a way, because I have a Korea face, but I was born and raised in the States.

I think my riding has hopefully gotten a lot better, but I'm always trying to push myself.

I just grew up in the States, so I feel like I identify more with the American culture.

I think, every time I'm on the mountain, I'm just so thankful to be there.

When I was younger, me and my dad worked really hard. We did it the hard way.

Zendaya - she's a boss - and Rihanna as well. I feel like those are two very powerful women.

I knew if I went home with the gold medal knowing that I could do better, I wasn't going to be very satisfied.

The one thing I learned is to just give everything a shot. You don't want to live in regret.

I'm much more of a city girl. I like the mall. I like shopping.

I always want to do the best I can.

I definitely have a lot of Korean-American fans, which is amazing.

I don't get butterflies. I get a good feeling in my stomach before I compete. When I don't, I get worried.

I don't remember the exact moment I fell in love with snowboarding; it wasn't something cheesy like, 'Oh the wind was blowing through my hair and I just knew this sport was for me... ' I was good at it, and it's exhilarating!

People ask where I'm from, and I say 'Los Angeles.' Then they ask again. 'Well, my parents are from Korea.'

I just say, 'Never give up.'

I feel like dreams are always a little tricky, you know? But if you just push through the struggles and the hard times, it'll be so worth it in the end because you will be able to get to your dreams.

I freak out when I see a spider. I was doing an interview once, and there was this really big, furry spider crawling up the tripod, and I was like, 'I can't do this!'

A shirt look good when you iron it but if you iron too much, it gonna get burned.

In Chicago, they wanted Michael to do his thing and me to be just rebound. I'm more than a rebounder.

I like Chicago. I've visited Chicago before and have family here.

The guys who beat me didn't get 1,000 rebounds. I did. It's not my fault the other guys didn't play as many games.

I still can't believe I'm even in the NBA. Me? Hah.

I'm just a piece of the pie, a slice of the pound cake.

Every team has a main guy.
