Ever since I saw you as Daisy in Gatsby I have had so much love for you. I think you're one of those rare once in a life time performers that give their all to the art they participate in and we are all so lucky to have the opportunity to watch you flourish in real life. I wanted you to know how much I truly admire you. If I could ever become even a fraction of the performer you are, I know I'll have done a good job. @llcarey

playing daisy had to be one of my all-time favorites because i just loved the book, but also... she was a complex character in making her choice between being a good person or continuing to live 'comfortably'. i'll never forgive her for not choosing gatsby, though. please know that you're not only a fraction of the performer i am, but you have absolutely surpassed me. i think you're a force to be reckoned with that the fact i get to call you a peer means so much to me. i'm so excited to see you in dune at the end of the year, then lord of the rings next year! like, you are such a star.

So, we beat the tigers 4-2 today. After the game I went to a place called Lafyette Coney Island in Detroit, Michigan and I gotta say if you are every there in Detroit you need to check it out. Best Dog I have ever had in my life. @limelightblvdstarters

i'm not much of a hot dog girl, myself. but, knowing that what brits eat gets judged by americans, i don't think i would mind trying a coney dog. i mean, there's absolutely nothing wrong with chili and diced onions-- put them together, and it's probably a delicious combination. what else is worth trying out there?

Being freshly divorced and having a whole house to yourself is weird. I'm trying to find things to fill my home with and I realize now a lot of my stuff was Buddy's things. It's weird to have such an empty house. But I am glad I get to live my best single life. Does anyone else realize they devote themselves to work so much that their house looks like a wasteland? @limelightblvdstarters

i completely understand... it's certainly different because i have kids, so it's almost a never-ending series of messes. but when i was first going through my divorce, i remember how empty it felt without him. luckily for me, there's still a sense of 'home' with my children around. let me know some of your favorite things and i'll send a painting over or we can make a trip to ikea one of these days? fill it up with things you genuinely like-- a restart of sorts.

i watched pride and prejudice the other night, though i have to admit i've streamed it more times than i can count. partly because i'm a sucker for the romance, but also because i sometimes find myself wondering if britain was really like that back then. i mean, while korean women may have ruled their households, they'd have been damned if they ever voiced an opinion that differed from their husbands'. but jane austen made it seem as though, even when women were heavily restricted and often treated as little more than bargaining chips in marriage, they were still able to speak from the heart and let their emotions show. thankfully, we've come a long way in korea, even if there's still room for improvement. anyway, putting jane austen aside for a moment, is there a character from a book that you're dying to bring to life one day? ( @llcarey )

you know, i honestly wonder if britain was like that sometimes too. i mean, i haven't seen my mother or grandmother wearing big dresses and getting into romantic entanglements with prince's... but, i'm also not saying it wasn't a possibility. jane austen definitely has a way with words and showcasing powerful women. though i wonder what that means in the long run for the diaspora of women in general. because, while i don't know much about korean culture, i can only imagine not being able to speak up. if i was to play a charater from a book... hm... well, my current obsession is fourth wing. i think i'd be able to play a mean lilith sorrengail. you have any ideas for books you want to see come to life? maybe i'll choose a character from one of your faves!

Late to the game as they've just announced they're putting the series on an indefinite pause, but I recently got into Doctor Who ans tell me why Sally Sparrow is the best character in the entire show and you're only in one episode? Just further proof of your star power. I'm highkey in love with you and just thought I should let you know that I'm so unbelievably jealous that we have never got the chance to speak before now. @llcarey

does... does the people's princess actually know who i am? i mean, what an honor it is to know that my one and only episode in the series moved you so heavily. i've gotten so many people who've said that they're upset with me because i turned down an offer to be the doctor's companion, and now i'm just hoping i didn't disappoint you. i absolutely adore you and thought you were absolutely fantastic in stranger things. every time i saw nancy with a weapon, i was completely locked onto the screen. please tell me you're working on new projects so i'll get to see you again? though, if you're taking a much needed break, that's also understandable. either way, i'm so glad we're finally getting acquainted.

I don't know if reintroducing yourself would do much good at this point. No, I do know them. My issue is that every time I discover a new one, three more seem to appear. Yeah, I'd say that's about right. That's such a flattering first impression to have. "He'll ruin my life" is thankfully not something that tends to come up in the opening round of guesses, which I think we can all agree is a positive. Though I do enjoy that you're essentially describing me as a golden retriever people want to introduce to their daughters. I swear, no secrets whatsoever. This is the problem with being painfully boring when it comes to scandal. The confession is a given. If we're making this film, that's non-negotiable. Dragons, princesses, impossible odds, all of that is great, but if nobody is soaked through while admitting their feelings at the eleventh hour, then what are we even doing? I haven't said being emotionally unemployed wasn't by choice, have I? I suppose I've chosen to be. Or maybe I'm just very selective. Not really looking either. I'm more in the "let love find me" camp. If it happens, wonderful. If it doesn't, I'll probably just stay single and continue minding my business. I've never been particularly good at forcing those things. I'd add kind. That's the big one. Someone kind, who makes me laugh, who I genuinely enjoy spending time with. Beyond that, it's all a bit useless trying to put it into a formula because every time I think I have a type, someone comes along and completely disproves it.

please be careful using your charm on me because it has taken me nearly a decade of our friendship for me to be immune to it. that certainly doesn't mean i can't get 'sick' sometimes. my best traits are just a reflection of you, dear. i'm a mirror to your most fantastic qualities, so don't forget that. and exactly, you definitely don't exude toxic. hell, i'm curious to this day what the most toxic thing you've ever even done would be. tell me, are you a snoop through a girlfriend's phone type? subtweeter? or are you, simply, as perfect as they come? let's go pitch this romantasy immediately. who wouldn't want to see us fall in love on screen? saved by andrew garfield... what a dream. ah, i see. we're not on the active dating site lifestyle either. i don't blame you for being selective or waiting it out. you deserve the absolute best. and kind was already a given. i imagine you need someone to match your vibe and you're the epitome of kind and funny. don't worry, i'll make sure to be on the lookout for you.

no, wait, facts, that's so true... so here's what i'm thinking: we do a whole, grand thing for father's day. we do the balloons, the tequila, the streamers, and we go "we love you papá, you're the best dad in the whole wide world... and you know what the best dad in the whole wide world would do? if he was really the best ever? you'd send your son and wife to napa." and then boom. he's successfully coerced into funding our trip. easy.

oh-- oh my god, wow. you thought that one through and you're trying to lay it on thick. okay, i think that may work. the balloons, streamers, and tequila to get him drunk enough to agree. though, i can't totally let you believe he won't be suspicious of why i'm being so nice to him. maybe i'll tell him the wife title could only be reserved with a ring on my finger, but i'll let it slide if he pays for our trip. maybe he'll even want to join as a pre-honeymoon thing.

oh, you don't even have to ask, mamá! at this point: dad who, right? consider my bags packed and my schedule clear.

let's not count him out all the way because we need him to fund our trip. i'll make the call, you can pretend to be super sad, and then we'll be on our way! what d'ya say, by next weekend?

did i just hear that you all went to napa and i wasn't invited? i mean, i'm trying not to take it personally, but... we've got problems. @limelightblvdstarters

let's call it even and blame it on your faux father and we can punish him by going on our own napa trip. is that a fair deal?

37 - who do you want more - Zoe or Jessica?

great friends. is that what we call it now? hope my love just absolutely suffocates you.
