Daniel Dae Kim was involved in one of Lost's most shocking storylines ever. In the latest Sun/Jin flashback, it turned out that Jin was in a flashback while Sun was in a flash forward.

"When the flash forwards first started, I was really excited because I thought it kind of injected a new energy into the show, so I guess it was inevitable that they would start combining the flashbacks and the flash forwards," said Dae Kim. "I think it's great. There aren't many shows right now where in the fourth year of its run where you're actually still questioning the narrative style. That speaks a lot for the creativity of the writers."
Since the flash forward revealed Jin's tombstone, Dae Kim will be working up to something tragic. "It's an interesting phenomenon, to know the end point but the thing is, we don't necessarily know the endpoint. We don't know how he dies, we don't know when he dies, we don't know if he dies. So there are still so many questions. It was revealed that he might actually be dead, so if that's the case, we'll see how that happens, or whether or not it's true."
Dae Kim is now back in the continental states for the summer, with the season finale airing this month. "There are some really big developments. There's kind of a doozy of a development actually. I think and there's a lot of stuff happening on the island, he said wryly. There's some momentous changes to the show coming up in the finale. You'll start seeing them fairly quickly, so I think that's about all I can say."
