Sandra Oh Got Real About 'Grey's Anatomy' Success & Says She Got 'Very, Very Sick' (VIDEO)

Sandra Oh recently interviewed Squid Game star Jung Ho-Yeon and the two actresses bonded over the pressures of success.

The two leading ladies took part in Variety's "Actors on Actors" experience where Ho-Yeon was able to ask Oh's advice about the unique situation of being an international celebrity.

"I just wanted to ask... how you deal with this crazy journey?" Ho-Yeon asked Oh.

"The thing that I think that is the closest in relationship is when Grey's Anatomy came," Oh said to compare Ho-Yeon's current situation to a time in her own life.

"And I think that my life changed very much," she admitted. "And it's tricky to kind of imagine because this is almost 20 years ago. So the context is very different, but the stress is the same, or the confusion is the same."

Oh said that while being in "amazing, privileged heavy responsibility positions," you need to make sure you take care of yourself first, noting that she became ill while filming for the medical drama.

"I think my whole body got very, very sick," Oh shared. "Even though you keep on working, right? But it's just like, oh, I can't sleep right. Or, you know, my back hurts. I don't know what's wrong with my skin."

She also said that health isn't just body but also mind and soul.

"You can't ultimately depend on anyone else. You have to somehow find it within yourself," she advised the younger actress.

Ho-Yeon also opened up about what it was like growing up and watching Oh on television.

"I was a little child in Korea and Grey’s Anatomy was a huge thing in Korea because of you, and you’re icon of us," she said. "Then when I met you at SAG Awards, you know me, and that was like, ‘Wow.'"

At the February 2022 event, Oh made a dash over to congratulate Ho-Yeon and Lee Jung-Jae for their wins in the Netflix hit during a commercial break of the show.

"Being at the SAG Awards, I couldn't believe how many Korean people were there," Oh said in an interview with Variety.

"Being at this game for a long time, that wasn't the case for a long time. So to be able to still be here while it's happening and witnessing [it], is extremely satisfying."
