Cobra Kai's Alicia Hannah-Kim In Black Workout Gear Shares Fight Training Sequence

Cobra Kai baddie Alicia Hannah-Kim is giving fans a glimpse of her fight sequence training behind the scenes of the hit Netflix show (season 6 part 2 is available now!). Hannah-Kim, 37, shared a video of herself wearing black leggings and a black sweater, sparring with Yuji Okumoto who plays Chozen Toguchi in the Karate Kid franchise. "Love at first fight #kimzen #cobrakai," she captioned the funny video. "Was not expecting the Chozen and Kim relationship but it was awesome," a fan commented. Here's how the Aussie actress stays fit and strong.

Hannah-Kim loved all the martial arts training for her role in Cobra Kai. "I have so much respect for martial arts," she told EUPHORIA. Magazine. "The technique and body conditioning it takes to participate in any martial art is extremely demanding and requires so much discipline. We do karate and taekwondo on set, but I learned a tiny bit of wushu on the side and LOVED that."

Hannah-Kim is a huge fan of Netflix smash hit Squid Game and says she would love to be part of it. "I would compete in a real-life Squid Game for the chance to die in the series," she told Deadline. "God, I don't think I've ever been so stressed watching a show. It was brilliant. Just brilliant. I'm really looking forward to seeing what Director Hwang Dong-hyuk cooks up for season 2."df44d9eab23ea271ddde7545ae2c09ec

Hannah-Kim loves learning how to do stunts on set. "We have a stunt gym on set where our amazing stunt coordinators Don Lee, Ken Barefield, and Tony Chung train us for our action sequences," she told EUPHORIA. Magazine. "It's truly my favorite place to hang out on set, and I'm always just so eager to learn as much as possible and improve my skills. I'm really flexible so I have to work on control and strength so I can be precise on camera."

Hannah-Kim is proud to be the first female sensei in the Karate Kid universe. "To be honest, I didn't stop to think about what the wider significance of being the first female sensei was until after I had wrapped," she told Deadline. "It's an immense honor and I thought a lot about young girls who might be inspired by Kim's fierceness or even just young Asian girls simply seeing their faces in mine."

Hannah-Kim emphasizes how much work goes into trying to make it as an actor. "Being an 'overnight success' is such a charming concept and so wholly untrue in my case. I have endless respect and solidarity with actors who are out there self-taping and auditioning into what feels like oblivion because I have been in those trenches for years," she told Deadline. "The rejection is painful and personal in a way that's difficult to explain to someone with a conventional desk job. With acting, it's your whole being on the line— your voice, your face, your essence, your body… so it really hurts to digest a 'no'. You have to be vulnerable enough to try and then resilient in defeat .…it's so masochistic and then of course, when you're hired you feel like you're flying."
