    Starting from Palme d’Or at the Cannes film festival, “Parasite” won Golden Globe’s best international film, and finally it swept 4 Oscars on Feb. 9th.
    Since it’s the first time in history that foreign film won 4 Oscars including Best Picture, this news not only astonished the world, but also it validated Korean movie industry’s possibility. So I went out to Gangnam to find out what Koreans thought on Parasite's Oscar winning.

    It's sad that when they talk about parasite, they only talked about how they have got oscar awards but never mention that they have won palm d'or too, which is the most prestigious awards for film maker.

      I think Ki-jung showed the boy affection, and let him paint what he wanted and felt. His previous art teachers probably didn't last because they were indoctrinated, and tried to make him conform to their styles. Ki-jung's lack of teacher education worked in her favor. Plus, in one scene, she had him sitting in her lap as he painted. He probably didn't get that sort of affection from his parents or sister.

    The themes were absolutely universal, transcending borders and generations. I'm a half-Thai, half-American kid born on 8-Mile road outside of Detroit, and raised in a town of 1000 mostly-white folks, and I totally understood them. I taught and lived in Gwangju City in the southwestern part of Korea, and I saw the wealth and class disparities first-hand. I taught kids from wealth and the working class families, and ate and drank with CEOs, university students, and blue-collar workers.
