Moving between Seoul and Los Angeles, actress Carson Allen has built a cross-market career shaped by nuance, discipline, and instinct. In this interview, she reflects on how Korean storytelling taught her the power of restraint—where stillness can carry as much emotion as dialogue—and why courage often looks like trusting your own creative rules. From Netflix Korea’s So Not Worth It to her next global step, Allen frames “in-betweenness” not as uncertainty, but as a wider lens for craft.
