“I’m just gonna stand here and take this all in. 40 years. Not letting go of this. Thank you, Hollywood Foreign Press for giving me this honor. It’s been an amazing journey and incredible fight to be here to day but I think it’s been worth it,” she said.

“I remember when I first came to Hollywood. It was a dream come true, until I got here. Because look at this face. I came here and was told, ‘You’re a minority,’ and I said no, that’s not possible. And then someone said to me, ‘You speak English.’ I mean forget about them not knowing Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Asia, India. And then I said, ‘Yeah, the flight here was like 13 hours long, so I learned,’” she said.
