“She was just like, 'I really, I really see you. You're doing it,'" Park added. "So that really made me realize, 'Oh my gosh, anybody I interact with who might be looking up to me in that way, what a difference that can [make].' Like still, it's a year later, and it makes me want to cry.”
Park called Streep a "lovely" person, adding that when co-creator John Hoffman called her up for the role and pitched a duet with Streep, she did not need any convincing to board the project.
"I was like, absolutely, I will do anything. I really don't care," Park recalled, quipping that she was also frightened at the prospect of being the season's murderer. “And then I was like, 'But please, because I'm such a scaredy cat, if I'm the murderer, will you tell me though first? Because I'm so scared.' He was like, 'You're not.' Because they really don't tell anybody until the end.”
