Oscar awards ceremony recently wrote on the official Instagram: “Here's to the neighbors with bounteous WiFi.” At the same time, Cui Woo-sik, one of the famous scenes of “parasites”, Pu Sudan crouched in the bathroom in search of WIFI stills.
"Parasite" is a new work directed by Feng Junhao, which won the Palme d'Or, the highest award at the Cannes International Film Festival in May this year. Prior to this, although several directors had won awards at the Cannes Film Festival, Feng Junhao was the first director to win the Palme d’Or.
"Parasite", which was released in South Korea on May 30 this year, attracted 10 million viewers. It was recognized for both its workability and box office. It also expanded its theaters in the United States, creating a whirlwind. When it premiered on the 11th of last month, the number of films shown in the 3 cinemas increased to 603 this weekend. In the United States, comparing "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" with the best-selling foreign exchange work, we are looking at whether "Parasite" can exceed the record. While
is well received in the United States, expectations for the Oscars are also increasing. "Parasite" was produced very early as a candidate for the foreign language film unit of the Academy Awards. If "Parasite" becomes an Oscar candidate, it will be the first movie in South Korea to receive an Oscar invitation.
Although the Oscar candidates have not yet been made public, Tim Kui, president of the neon group responsible for distributing "Parasite" to North America, said in the Hollywood report: "Parasite will be nominated as the best foreign language film, the most Best Director Award, Best Screenplay Award, Best Actor Award, and other five nominations.”
Bong Jun-ho in an interview with American media published on the 7th of last month stated that “Korean movies have produced a lot in the past 20 years. The question was answered: “Oscar is a local award ceremony.”
In addition, the Oscar award ceremony began in 1929 and became the most authoritative film award ceremony in the United States.
