Let's make this birthday one to remember.

72 years old (Born on October 30, 1952)

Happy Birthday, Emily Kuroda! Whether you're keeping Stars Hollow in line as the unforgettable Mrs. Kim or captivating audiences on stage with award-winning performances in "The Maids" and "Straight As a Line," your talent shines brighter than Kirk's latest quirky business idea.

From expertly delivering stern yet hilarious parenting advice to Lane, to earning Drama-Logue and Back Stage West Garland Awards for your powerful theatrical roles, you've consistently brought joy and depth into our lives. May this birthday be filled with laughter, love—and absolutely no rock music hidden under floorboards (Mrs. Kim wouldn't approve!). Here's to another year of timeless brilliance!
