NOBODY IS THERE, I'M PRETTY CHILL.
>> Stephen: LIKE NO ONE'S IN THE CAR WITH YOU?
>> Steven: NO IT'S IN THE CAR, IF SOMEONE CUTS ME OFF LIKE I
UNDERSTAND I'VE DONE THAT BEFORE TOO.
BUT IF SOMEONE'S CLOSE TO ME LIKE MY WIFE OR KIDS, THEY ARE
IN THE CAR, LIKE I GET REALLY ANGRY AND LIKE WHY IS THAT?
OH, I'M PERFORMING. BECAUSE SOMEONE I KNOW SAW ME
GET SLIGHTED AND SO I HAVE TO MAKE A DEAL ABOUT IT.
RIGHT? WHAT DOES THAT SAY?
>> Stephen: IT SAYS YOU SHOULD LIVE ALONE.
YOU'RE MUCH BETTER BY YOURSELF. HOW FAST YOU DRIVE?
KEEP IN MIND THAT LIKE ALL OF MY GUESTS, YOU ARE UNDER OATH.
>> Steven: I M A CONSISTENT 80.
NOT ALWAYS! >> Stephen: CONSISTENT MEANS
LIKE IN A SCHOOL ZONE, PARKING LOT.
>> Steven: I'M GOING TO GET IN SUCH TROUBLE FOR THIS, BUT I'M A
LEFT LANE--YARD. I STAY 80s SO THAT I CAN STAY
IN THE LEFT LANE. AREN'T YOU SUPPOSED TO -- I
THOUGHT IT WAS FUN AND THEN MY FRIEND WAS LIKE YOU'RE SUPPOSED

OKAY, SO, WHEN SOMETHING GOOD HAPPENS AND I'M CURIOUS AS AN
ACTOR LIKE YOU THINK I'VE GOT A LONG PERIOD OF WORK THAT I CAN
LOOK FORWARD TO HEAR. OR ARE YOU ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT
THE NEXT THING? >> Steven: YOU KNOW WHAT IT
WAS? THIS PROJECT LIKE I'M JUST KIND
OF ON THIS RIDE AND I HAD TO SHARE IT WITH THE PEOPLE THAT I
LOVE, PEOPLE THAT I REALLY ADMIRE.
IN THE SHOW ITSELF WAS JUST LIKE ULTIMATE FACING ALL CRINGE AND
GOING THROUGH THAT WAS LIBERATING AND ALSO IT FEELS
LIKE LOOK AT YOU -- I'M JUST HAPPY FOR THE SUCCESS, BUT HATE
IT OR LOVE IT, I FEEL LIKE IT SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT YOU MORE
THAN IT DOES ABOUT ME. SO I'M CHILL.
>> Stephen: WHAT DO YOU THINK IT SAYS ABOUT SOMEBODY IF THEY
HATE IT? >> Steven: MAYBE THEY DO NOT
WANT TO SEE THEIR CRINGE. >> Stephen: IF THEY LOVE IT?
>> Steven: THAN THEY ARE COOL WITH THE CRINGE.
>> Stephen: SO IT'S PRETTY SIMPLE.
>> Steven: PRETTY COOL WITH THAT OF CRINGE.
>> Stephen: DO YOU LIKE THE FEELING OF THE CRINGE?
>> Steven: I DON'T LOVE THE FEELING OF THE CRINGE.
BUT I HEARD THIS THING THAT SAYS DON'T KILL THE CRINGE, KILLED A
PART OF YOU THAT CRINGES. >> Stephen: THAT SOUNDS DEEP.
[LAUGHTER] I HAVE T-SHIRTS AND MUGS.
OKAY, SO YOUR CHARACTER DANNY BECOMES A PART OF -- I'VE GOT IT
RIGHT HERE, YOUR CHARACTER BECOMES PART OF A KOREAN CHURCH
IS BANNED. DID YOU GROW UP --

>> Stephen: WERE YOU IN THE BAND?
DID YOU PLAY GUITAR? >> Steven: I DID, I DID PLAY
GUITAR. NO, IT WAS LIKE SLOW WITH MY
TAYLOR 710 ACOUSTIC GUITAR LIKE DOING THE WHOLE THING.
SOMEONE SAID WOW, WHO GOT, YEAH? LIKE CHURCH PRAISE.
[LAUGHTER] AND IT WAS JUST -- IT WAS A
TIME. I DON'T DO THAT ANYMORE.
I ACTUALLY DON'T GO TO CHURCH ANYMORE, BUT I WAS A TIME.
>> Stephen: ON THE CERTAIN LEVEL IT STICKS WITH YOU.
YOU HAVE A FAVORITE VERSE IF I MAY ASK?
>> Steven: I DO HAVE A FAVORITE VERSE.
I WAS TAUGHT THIS IN SIXTH GRADE, IT WAS ROMANS 12:
TWO. DO NOT CONFORM TO THE PATTERNS
OF THIS WORLD, BUT BE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF
YOUR MIND AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TEST.
>> Stephen: THAT WAS BAD -- >> Steven: --
>> Steven: SOUNDING. THAT WAS TAUGHT TO ME AT THE
TIME TO BE LIKE DON'T DO SECULAR THINGS, JUST TO CHRISTIAN
THINGS. THAT DOESN'T SOUND AT ALL LIKE
WHAT THE VERSE SAID AND I'VE BEEN UNPACKING IT EVER SINCE.

WITH MORE STEVEN YEUN. TO STICK, EVERYBODY.
