Being korean living in rural Alabama, I almost cried because that boy was me.
Aw
No Spoilers, please!
The coolest kids I grew up with were always the kids from korea
Its all good
Lies
“grandma smells like korea” that line stayed in my head for some time because i realized that i understood that. lol. they do smell like home and i miss that
I miss the smell of Mothballs a lot
I guess that boy doesn't like grandma's unsophisticated behaviours and the traditional custom of Korea.. So I think "Grandma smells like Korea" that expressions are constructed from the child's perspective because that boy doesn't like his grandmother. Many young children in Korea love their grandparents and grandparents, but they smell of old people and are scared. Especially, some children born and raised in cities do not like the Korean countryside very much.
I was also scared when I had to sleep with my grandpa, but when I realiezed my grandpa is gone by my me.. I just cried a lot because I couldn't say "I love you" so much..
Next time I visit my grandma in Korea I’m gonna take a lot of video of her and record her voice calling me. So that I could keep it forever even after she’s gone...
I love my Korean grandma so much.. When she saw that my blankie was all old and holey, she patched it for me with her cute patterns
The line brings me a painful memory of how I treated her when I was little. I wish I could go back and tell her how sorry I am for what I did to her.
This is not just Korean, it's too relatable for an Asian. This is living an 'American Dream' for an average Asian family.
...yes there are only asian immigrants.
For all immigrant families in US. Minari is displaying what every single immigrant family goes through. It is 100% more relatable for asians because Minari is about Korean immigrants, but this is a common story for any race and ethnicity in US
I’m Latinx and I teared up with this trailer. It’s so relatable
im an asian immigrant too but this movie is pretentious and boring, the cinematography is ok tho.
not just for an average Asian family, but for all average immigrant families!
Grandma just won Oscar for best supporting actress!
Shes not definitely like other grandmas
@@raulaviles4386 hell yess!
And she met Brad Pitt! 😂
@@arturgarncarz3631 yes that was cute ^ ^
For all the grandmas everywhere..we salute!
I am korean american and i still remeber the grandma smell after 40 years. i really miss her.
RIP
She’s with you. Always
😢
🥺
Rest in Peace 🤍
I'm not Korean and I'm not an immigrant, but damn this trailer hit me like a ton of bricks...can't wait to check it out.
So what's wrong with you?
@@mayday8982
Bro stop playing around.
You said it hit you hard, which means you probably had some bad experience about smth.
That's why this movie hit you.
Am I wrong?
Nor Priest its just something to sympathize with
Why would you need to be Korean or an immigrant to be moved by this movie?
@@norpriest521 get some help mate
This is not just Korean. It’s relatable for every Asian, African, Latino American, etc living the “American dream”. Very emotional trailer.
It's really relatable for immigrants in general. The types you named are just the most common right now.
It's relatable for all humans tbh. I cried so hard watching this movie. It was so beautiful!
@@High1QWealth I think his comment was specific to POC, I don't think a white kid would look at another white kid for being white
@@High1QWealth obviously. His point was clearly indicative of POC immigrants.
@Liheng Wang What's wrong with you? No truly, what went so wrong in your life that made you want to sit there and type that out? Are you alright?
i have never ever cried this much during one movie. it was truly beautiful, it wasn’t overly tragic or made extra dramatic. it was very real. this is one of my favorite movies i have ever seen for sure
@Luis Lol
@Francis Augustine ?
Omg Olivia you're here?!!! Remember me? The goblin?
@Fat Indian Gamer hello! spoiler alert!!
@@sehyunpark3164 I am a Moroccan ... why I proposed this movie because it's worth watching ..
Minari is a edible weed grows mostly in Eastern Asian countries. Its strong and peculiar smell and taste makes korean foods' taste that has minari in it really unique.
Unfortunately, some young native koreans hate the strong-green-grass-smell of minari since it's very strong. So probably some part of young Korean-Americans would hate it too.
If i'm assuming correctly, i think the director is trying to tell the story of all three different generations of a Korean-American family who have different perspectives and thought processes.
Wow thanku!
Or it means buttercup in Korean
Weed.
Shashank the person is referring to weed, an invasive plant
Shashank not weed as in marijuana
Once again there's something on fire in an A24 trailer
Haahahaha yes there is 😂
Agree!
Lol! I'm thinking back amd pretty much every movie does
LOL
That's how you know it's a good film!! The fire is all your expectations being blown!
To be a grandma check list:
-bake cookies
-don't swear
-don't wear men's underwear

Congratulations to Minari on its 6 OSCAR NOMINATIONS, including best picture, best director for lee isaac chung, best actor for steven yeun,best supporting actress for Yuh-Jung Youn(the grandma), best original screenplay and best score!! Very well deserved!
"Minari" is a plant that has a very strong resistance to insects and diseases And because of its strong purification power, we raised"minari"and discarded wastewater there.
Oh my, thank you for explaining that😊
This was recommended to me, my phone knows, I clicked because I liked the thumbnail and the name. Minari, I find it a beautiful name
I thought it would perhaps be of a little girl living in the countryside with her family... I thought it would be a Japanese movie, you know those heartwarming ones😅 but I'll take this😁
@Alcohoel yes, I now know that😊 too thanks to the comment above us
I really appreciate it, it's always nice learning something new😌
Is it buttercup? The plant similar to celery, i heard on korean variety show they refered minari to celery, but it might be the closest translation or on just same species
Minari is in twice.
가고간다 tf?
Omg I laughed when he said “grandma smells like korea” but cried when I realized how much I miss the smell.
I’m not Korean, I’m Haitian . But the statement has so much meaning for me. Now that I’m older I wish I appreciated it much more
Same im mexican american and that line brought so many childhood memories that i dearly miss
AddictingNeptune X right such a funny thing to say but has so much meaning
Same me too my grandma had a particular smell too I miss her 😢 😔
Same here,you realize only after when they're gone.
Turns out the kid grows to become the rich Mr. Park in “Parasite”.
So far, Steven is the only Asian actor I saw in American entertainment having a role as a normal guy. People don't realize how sadly the American media discriminates against race. It's kind of funny but true is that I never saw an Asian man making out or even hugging a girl on TV until Glenn in TWD. Asian men are always in a role as funny, submissive, nerdy, passive, and what have you. On the other hand, it is a quite different story with Asian women. I really don't want to elaborate on this but I think you know what I mean. Anyway, it's good to see some changes.
By the way, this movie was made in the USA with many American actors with American everything. Anyone know why this film is listed as a foreign film?
Golden Globe's racist rules forced them to apply in the foreign film category. They can't fathom seeing a non-English (so basically non-White) film compete for the top awards.
hey I'm actually not familiar with the asian women portrayals. Can anyone elaborate? Is it with the couple pairings? (with white men?)
@@violethaye6987 i think he's referring to the "funny, submissive, nerdy, passive" part -- yet asian women are consistently sexualized and infantilized so nobody really has it better
@@hershey6206 oh yeah that's true. Sucks all around.
flashbacks from Parasite winning best picture resurfacing to Western film industry, simple as that xD
I couldn’t stop crying at some scenes, as the son of immigrants, this hit very close to home. From the score to the editing, film was absolutely beautiful.
You can always go back to your own country?
@@sorrowhill9269 the way i was born here, and my parents got their citizenship 🤡 🤯
How come every time Steven Yeun is in a movie something burns down?
You've surely watched Burning lol
Unlike his TV shows, which totally don't burn to the ground. Take for instance The Walking De---- ...oh.
(To be clear-- it burned down AFTER he left. Steven Yeun is an international treasure.)
😂
It's in his contract. Either he gets to burn something down or you gotta find another Korean actor.
It's like how Brad Pitt looks great eating on camera: Steven looks great in front of blazing infernos
I can see a lot of Korean Americans crying to this. I'm ready to cry.
i can lend u my shoulder.
I got teary. So many little things that remind me of my family and growing up second gen in America. Even the way the grandma nodded as her grandson talked was exactly the way mine did.
I'm already crying from the trailer. I can't imagine what the movie will do to me
Man I'm Nepalese american and I'm all emotional right now.
Facts
As a Korean American immigrant, this movie resonated with me and felt incredibly authentic. Absolutely amazing cast!
....
You already know! 💪
The trailer itself already got me emotional . My children need to watch this film so they could fully understand what their grandparents and their parents had to overcome by coming to a foreign country.This film speaks to all Asian-Americans and a reminder that a family strength lies in their hearts .
You guys can always go back to your own country?
@@sorrowhill9269 my family served in the United State Military as proud American.I am love in my creator eyes . Sit down and have dinner with me and look at me as a man and you will see the only thing different is our skin color . I have 2 business that employed all Americans not their colors . I’m doing my part as a proud US citizen . What have you contribute to our society????????
@@thunderbeast3976 Right on.
@@sorrowhill9269shut up
@@sorrowhill9269bro what
As a Korean-American, wow. This hits home when I think about what my immigrant parents had to go through. My heart is broken, yet so full at the same time. Thank you for creating a film that shows our stories!!!
Exactly this. I cannot wait for this movie to come out, so I can make some tteokbokki with my mom and watch it together.
I nearly saw Ms. Purple when it was making the festival circuit, but this seems like it's being received far better! I'd still like to see it - another film about Korean life in America - but I think this will come first.
A lot of my Korean friends share very similar stories, it just sucks that most Korean people I meet here in the states who are over the age of 30 or so have the impression that I’m bigoted towards them until they see I have Korean friends.
Amen. I think I even said something to the effect of "Grandma smells like Korea" to my parents when my grandmother came to stay with us.
As a Filipino American, I feel the same.
Seeing this trailer made me cry so much. My life, while not rural, was much like this. With no asian role models in the 80s I hated being Korean and slowly even forgot most of the language and was mean to my grandma that loved me and raised me. Now I'm so proud to be Korean and trying to get to my roots. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
you're not
Your not, luckily I grew in a city where immigrant and minorities (including korean) are appreciated to this day (Toronto), not alienated because we are different.
I am half Vietnamese and felt the same way. I pretended I was white and not Vietnamese at all and was embarrassed to be seen with my Viet family. I am very proud to be Vietnamese now!!
Have you read American Born Chinese? It's a very surprising graphic novel. I recommend it highly. I don't want to give anything away, but I think that a lot of Asian kids from the 80s grew away from their roots.
Nefferatu but you’re still not Vietnamese...
Here because grandma won the Oscar.
100% deserved. 🙌
the fact that she personally used her own money to be able to film this just means so much more
You don’t have to be Asian to relate, you have to be a human. This trailer brought me to tears.
you got issues mate.
@@Yobbie72 I see you're blind to the irony of your own comment X'D
@@Yobbie72 who hurt u
Yapp! Because not just asians experiencing racism
@@tristanmanalo6252 racism wasn't a factor in this film unless you really think that tiny scene where the boy who had probably never seen koreans before asked the son why his face is flat constituted racism.
I remember when I used to be embarrassed that my dad was my bus driver when I was in 6th grade then after graduating till now. This man became a legend. Everyone knows and loves him at our school. I remember this kid who I coached made fun of me when I told him my dad was a bus driver, he now rides on his bus and loves my dad. Never be ashamed of your family cause in the end, that’s all you got. Love you pops.
this is so wholesome! :D hope you and your family are well!
a story right there
Your story made me cry idk why
Because you like to make people cry😢😢😢
Me to myself in the mirror: "I'm not pretty, I'm good looking!"
Yup
Lmao
Lol
Minari is a reflection of what my family and I experienced. My family and I moved from Los Angeles in the late 80's to northern Mississippi. More specifically, it was to operate a small grocery store in a small, country town. Being Chinese American and not knowing the locals there, it was a culture and lifestyle shock for me.
@James Smith Did you thank Native Americans for allowing you to live among them, and in their country? No? Typical...
@James Smith read the room & have some shame lmao. When was “America” ever a white-people country? Ya sure, y’all terrorized everybody else and their grandmas but when was it ever “your” country? 🤡🤡
Not a "foreign language" movie. It's an American movie and a beautiful one at that.
Minari: "It will break your heart... "
Me: I'm ready.
Same; bring it on!
I love how your pfp goes with your comment
Well stated.
"I'm ready to get hurt again" - Michael Scott
Narrator: "He wasn't"
Steven's Korean has improved tremendously I am thoroughly impressed.
Especially when he said "Granma smell?" That sounds really Korean 😂
I think he has done some work in Korea, I saw him in a Korean movie and he was also shown in Return of the Superman
Also born in Seoul
The writing on this movie is also amazing. When he goes I'm going to build a big garden mixed with korean and english, that sounded like my dad.
Sara H what Korean movie was he in?
From now on I always say: "I'm not pretty I'm good looking".
I felt like I am in the movie, this is exactly what happened to us as an immigrant. I can't stop crying just seeing the trailer. Can't wait to see the whole movies. Thank you for picturing US as an immigrant.
This, to me- is America. Every American family has its start as outsiders, with a desire to grow. We all share that in common. And thank god im seeing Steven Yeun in something new and good! After he left the walking dead, there was a big gap left in the show. This dude will shine if you let him! This trailer really says it all, I’m so excited to see this!
Watch Steven Yeun in Burning. His performance is so eerie, it will haunt you long after the movie is over.
He’s been working in films like these pretty consistently.
I stopped watching after he was killed. The only one left I liked. He's awesome, this film looks fantastic.
Jesse Morgan Glenn was one of my favorite characters, I ended up staying to watch up until my only other favorite character died... Abraham
If you were born and raised in America then you're not in the same category.
"I AM NOT A PRETTY BOYY, I AM GOOD LOOKING" he's so cute.
My wife is from Korean, and my mother in law calls our son Pretty. I have to constantly tell her that it could be kind of an insult in English. But in Korean it's used for both male's and females. More or less means cute.
@@sva33 It's not an insult! Back in the day, women used to be called handsome and men were called pretty. Men used to wear pink, women wore blue. Bring the gender neutral back!
@@moeezS Ok but that was awhile ago. Culture changes it. Bring gender neutral back doesn't make sense because it's never been gender neutral.
@@sva33 이쁘다 is not the same as 예쁘다. 예쁘다 is cute and pretty, usually describe women or women's attire or looks. 이쁘다 is more of generic term of affection and show of favoritism
@@user-ck1ng3ig5u 아 몰랐던 지식이네요. 제가 학교다닐때는 둘다 표준어라 알고있었고 제가 설명한데로 예쁘다는 여자들에게 하는표현이고 이쁘다는 모양이나 사물 혹은 행동에대한 표현으로 교과서에 나왔었어요
I just watched this with my family. While it's Korean-American, any American immigrant and any family that has faced hardship can relate to this movie's theme. It's an absolutely beautiful story
This trailer alone brought up very nostalgic memories for me growing up Korean in America, then becoming Korean American, to now fully recognizing I am American with Korean roots and heritage. I'm trying to fight back tears......
This trailer looks so comfortably clean and neat.
As most korean things !
I see a lot of people commenting and saying "wow, another good Korean movie." Make no mistake, this is not a Korean movie. This is an American movie and possibly one of the most American movie that has come out in a long while. This tells the story that is fundamentally American, a son and daughter of immigrants growing up with 2 cultures, and having to weave around and find their identity. It also tells the story of recent immigrants looking to make a foundation for their children. If you are not a Native American (as in part of a Tribe), you are either 3 things: 1). you are an immigrant 2). you are a son or daughter of immigrants, or 3). you are a descendent of a son or daughter of an immigrant. They are all tied in. There is no "non-immigrant white person." That is a complete and utter myth.
It's Korean
correct on all counts. America is a country of immigrants and settlers. This is an American story, hopefully of an American Dream realized. Can't wait to see it!
Immigrant stories aren't unique to America, this is an immigrant movie not solely an American one, if you want to be pedantic and say there is no non immigrant white person, then we can make the case that there is no non immigrant anyone because at some point even the natives migrated to the Americas from somewhere else, you have a very american centric view on life it seems
@@user-ts2ny8jg9d you are on an american website, watching a trailer for an american movie and you think this should encompass the world? lol. We are Americans and that is what we know and talk about.
@@user-ts2ny8jg9d Oh and just to educate, there is a big difference between migration patterns that happened thousands of years ago vs ships coming from Europe a few hundred years ago to a land that was already inhabited. The majority of Americans can trace their family roots to another country within 4 generations. America is a land of immigrants.
This movie and Parasite is opening doors for all those deserving Asian talents that get unnoticed. I hope to see a Malaysian winning an Oscar someday ❤️
Michelle Yeoh will win Best Actress next year.
What is this movie? It made me cry the whole time watching it. Should I stay, should I leave? It is a struggle that we face every day. Dream, family and love. These are the reasons why we are staying. What a beautiful movie!
As a Korean American, this trailer made me tear up. That immigrant struggle was too real. Wow.
Your profile picture fits that expression.
Yea we can see that
As a Korean American myself, I can’t agree, I came to America when I was 8 and I just adapted in my own standards, it was easy and I don’t get why people have hard time. The only thing that was hard for me was my parents’ expectation of my English.
@@ultimatechojian1159 That's completely valid, yet you should also consider the fact that this is a genuine, lived experience for other immigrants. I'm sure you can sympathize with people uprooted from their home country, for people that have a harder time adapting to new environments. It isn't an uncommon feeling.
@@ultimatechojian1159 It really depends on your socio-economic class. I know a lot of immigrants who didn't struggle as much as others due to either moving into a better neighborhood, the environment having a lot of other people of the same ethnicity, or just having more money overall. Saying "... I don't get why people have a hard time" comes off as very ignorant.
Whenever its A24 I immediately think its gonna be a horror flick or a thriller.
A24 is actually a pretty versatile company. It has comedy, drama, romance, horror, thriller... Hell, it even has one or 2 action movies
you havent been watching their other films then. Moonlight, Lady Bird, the Florida project, Mid90s, The Farewell, Waves, Uncut Gems (might be considered as a thriller to some), and their amazing show on HBO max, Euphoria.
You must be joking right? It ain’t Blumhouse production 😅
@@westernpigeon don't forget The Lighthouse
Sameee🤣🤣 I'm so relieved
Yuh-Jung Youn won for The Best Supporting Actress at this year's. She the first Asian actress to win an Oscar since 1957 and the second in history. Congratulations I am proud Asian here.
"They don't wear men's underwear." But those briefs are so comfy and roomy.
Rarely do we have Asian American actors/actresses that can speak their native language fluently...Steven Yeun is definitely one of them 👏
well. . . definitely better than dan day kim, bt no where near fluent
Not really actually. He did a great job with his Korean in Burning which was a Korean movie so he probably worked really hard with an accent coach, but even in the trailer for this I hear an American accent when he pronounces ㄱ (g sound) as ㅋ (k sound) which is pretty typical of lots of second-generation Korean-Americans. But, he still does a great job considering that he's not a native speaker!!!
Shoeit Yeah he’s not really fluent! I mean not many Asian Americans expand their works to countries in Asia but seeing as I am studying a bit of Korean, I actually don’t mind his slightly accented Korean and he speaks it well despite not being his native language! Credit where credit is due I guess
Nathan Hanson And speaking of expanding in Asia, Burning was a pretty good fkn film tbf 😂👌! Like you said, his Korean was pretty nice in that film! I’m just glad there’s actually an Asian American actor that speaks their family’s language on screen cos I don’t see many of them do that these days
Andy Nguyen if its a role that had a reasn fr a character to be kor american, casting steve is a grt choice. nt so much when its a korean who shdnt be bilingual.
i give credit to steve fr staying this fluent and prbly working hard to improve his korean, bt until he reaches a certain level of fluency, it just seems like he is cast fr the hollywood name value.

This is such a impactful trailer, because for me coming here to America for the first time as a immigrant. Life was challenging and tough, and to have this movie correlate with the same struggle me and my family have went through, it’s truly uplifting and emotional.
Can’t wait to watch this...
@Bi Huynh I am not Korean myself, but your story is a HUMAN story and it really makes me reflect on how much we are all the same. I can't relate to your struggles but your words made me care for someone I have never met. I wish the best for you and your family. The only difference between us is that we were born far apart :) I

@@cas9007 I really didn't understand the hype around burning. It felt really slow and boring imo
This movie was fantastic. Avoids easy tropes and challenges the viewer to consider how they would approach things in these situations. Also nails the early 1980s aesthetic.
It doesn't matter what kind of Asian you are, this is literally the Asian-American Dream for most of us Asians. Not Fresh off the Boat.
Definitely agree on you

No it's not. Most Asian immigrants now have a lot of money and job access. This was more relevant to Asians 50 or more years ago.
@@exiledanon1406 LOL. Dont talk at all if you're not Asian. You're only thinking about the people who settled on Europe or the States in the 60s. Asians still have to strive
@@m1dnght this is not a debate. You can look up statistics of people who immigrate to this country, where they come from and what job fields they enter. You can also look up average income by race and ethnicity.
Asian guy here....I love that the southern people in the trailer aren't reflected as outright scary racists, and the story doesn't appear to be centered around racism.
there will most likely be a few scenes centred around racism simply because it still relates to the general theme but I agree.
Agreed!
I’m also Asian. I grew up in Kentucky. Personally, I wouldn’t sugarcoat racism in the South because there is a lot it. OF COURSE, I would never assume that most Southerners are scary racists, but if you’re outside the city, there’s a lot of them.
@MD JG It's not just the South. It's the entire US.
I like this comment. My mother is an immigrant and they were always very hospitable to us growing up. I am really light complected compared to my mother, and I noticed the different comments that she would receive. Don't get me wrong, there were definite moments of overt racism towards my African-American peers that I witnessed, but a lot of the prejudices I witnessed her and other POC experience in our small Georgia community were often a result of ignorance and a lack of education.
At the end the grandma says, "pretty boy". That is such a Korean way for a grandma to call her grandchild whether it is a boy or a girl. Korean grandmas call their grand children "pretty baby" (Yeppeun Aga) or even "pretty poopy 🐶 puppy" (Yeppeun ddong Gang-a-ji). Lol.
Yes, 'Pretty' can be used for boys too in Korea. Maybe some doesn't like it
Thanks for the context!
“Yeppeun” (pretty in English) means a kind of “adorable” in Korea sometimes
what grandma really meant was 'my sweet boy', 'sweety pie', etc

This film hits hard more when you see the current state of Asians in America who left everything they loved growing up in their home country in search of a better life...nobody deserves to be a subject of racism
Tell that to Africans in korea, japan, china etc..
@@francoislechanceux5818 he said nobody
what a crock of leftist baloney
@@desoztopdesoz2456 in what way is what they said "leftist?" Explain.
When were they subjects of racism, in the trailer or the film? Seems like everyone was nice and respectful to this new family who moved in, sure the white kid stared, but that's probably because he never saw an Asian kid in real life before. Sorry but I don't think the movie is about what you think it is.
"They bake cookies! They don't swear!
They don't wear men's underwear!"
That was so perfectly rhymed!
All right time for Steven Yeun to get the Oscar he deserves.
i think it'll be Riz Ahmed's year for Sound of Steel or Tony Hopkins for The Father.
He should've gotten one for supporting actor in Burning
I’ve just come to know Steven Yuen from Burning-his performance was mesmerizing in that one. Really looking forward to Minari.
@@julieanne3482 Steven Yuen's performance in The Walking Dead was eye popping!
I clicked on a link from the NY Times, just out of curiosity about movies they recommended for Oscars. And who do I find?
GLENN!!!
I honestly stopped watching The Walking Dead over Glenn. So happy to see Steven Yuen in this role. He's a hell of an actor.
Speaking as a Korean-American, it feels like I've been waiting my whole life to see this movie
I'm not Korean-American (2nd generation Mexican-American) but I too have been waiting for a film like this to show me the early Korean-American experience from a genuine true non-white perspective
Speaking as someone who lived in Korea for two years of their life, Koreans are spearheading a renaissance in film and it is absolutely no surprise. They are so hard working and live with their hearts on their sleeve.
Finallly, someone telling the story of the Korean immigrant to non-Korean audiences. Being a KA, I find Koreans of the 1st and some 2nd generations to be the most frustrating, maddening people to deal with, and tragic, self sabotaging at times. Sometimes I don't ever want to interact with another Korean. Yet I still have a heart for the people I come from.
@David Kim I try to avoid Korean churches. Nightmare...
Wow, as a first generation Filipino American, this one really hit home on so many levels. Great performances by Steve Yeun and the whole cast. BRAVO!
I’m Latino and I’m crying Jesus I’ve had a terrible year , if you have as well, you’re not alone
All the best to you, mate! Greetings from Germany.
Fritz Walter greetings from Costa Mesa , California brother ✌🏽
I’m with you, bro.
I'm Korean. I want to give you a hug.
@@willlockwood7903 all love , gotta keep our head up, the only way we lose is when we give up on hope. Here’s to better days ✊🏾
Why am I crying I haven’t even seen the whole movie.
You’re such baby
Lol same I feel like I should watch the movie when it comes out but I know I’m gonna cry rivers
Me too!! Maybe cause Glenns in it and I'm excited to her him speak Korean
@Danny Lopez lmao
Watching this movie, I felt like a fly on the wall that witnessed a slice of this family’s life. The love, desperation, small celebrations.
Just watched this movie from my DStv channel.i am a hardened grown man from Nigeria,but I cried like a baby
Loved every scene in this movie..it hits home
I started tearing up during the trailer...so excited for this! A24 seriously never disappoints.
I did too... Why do I feel somehow related to the movie while I have zero experience in farming or gardening
Saaamee
it's called music manipulation
Same here 😢
I've only seen 2 A24 movies I didn't like
Into the forest
Tusk
But I've seen at least 20 so it's not a bad rep
I saw A24 and immediately clicked without even giving it a thought
Same! A24 is killing it with great movies.
I see my mother and father's dreams and my own shame as a kid...this trailer brought me to tears
I respect actor Yun Yeo jeong.
Her age is almost 75, but she performed perfect act. This movie is one of the examples of her movies. Through this movie, I want many Americans know about truly "Korean" and to make good relationship.
I love everything about this. It looks like a honest, heartbreaking and heartwarming of everyday people tale. I'm so proud of Yeun's work post twd. He's curating his work exceptionally well and it's no wonder he's had the quality opportunities he's had. I hope this film gets all the attention possible.
I couldn't agree more... This film looks to be a treat and hopefully it turns out to be just that.
Yea, Yeun's fortunately had a very successful post-Walking Dead career. He made some really good choices with the types of roles he's taken, and I'm glad they've paid off well for him as of now.
It won at this years Sundance festival.
He was really good in sorry to bother you imo
Yes, he picks some decent jobs:) I advise you to watch Burning man, if u haven't already
As a Korean-American , seeing this just gives me a lot of Excitement.
Same..! Ugh I know I'm going to cry.. I relate to this
so happy for Steven Yeun's Oscar nom! First ever nomination for an Asian American in Leading Actor category
Who is here after the movie gets nominated for best picture, best director and Best Actor at Oscar. Steven Yeun I am so happy for u. Been your fan since TWD ❤️
As a Mexican-American, son of two immigrants, and growing up in a predominantly White and conservative area, this trailer hit close to home (as I'm sure it did to many other children of immigrants). That scene in which the White kid was staring back, I experienced that many times when I was growing up (at school, restaurants, and while shopping). Growing up with the traditions and culture from your ancestral land while trying to assimilate in land that your parents didn't grow up in, I experienced that. Being bilingual and bicultural, I am that. Can't wait for this film to come out and watch it!
Well, it's out now. Happy viewing.
The scene with the boy does looks like racism, but watching the movie, it was just curiosity, he never saw faces like theirs. He turned out to befriend the kid and even the kid's father wasn't racist towards the kid and they were shown like the typical cowboy from the south.
@Yeirim Kim I mean, you can take it as you want, but to me it's expected to be weirded out by different cultures and physical aspects that are totally foreign to you, especially a kid. You gotta remember this is the 80's in a small town in the south of the USA. The kid probably never seen an asian person before, he was curious, it wasn't racism to me. Later on in the movie they play together and the kid never show ill intent to the kid. When his dad showed up there was clear tension between everyone, but even the dad never said anything bad about the kid being different or their family.
@Yeirim Kim I understand what you're saying, but kids don't have much filter, they are not mature yet. In the movie the asian kid complained about his grandma smell, he wasn't aware he was not only disrespecting her but also potentially hurting her feelings. Now, adults on the other hand shouldn't say things like that, even if they are thinking it.
reading your comment right after three months you posted it. I still can feel the struggle.... best of luck for whatever you, and everyone elses doing in this life...
The director of this film who wrote and directed this film, not only won the highest honor at Sundance, the US Dramatic Grand Jury Prize Award (Best U.S. Indie Film) but he's also attached to a live-action adaptation of Your Name (Ki Mi No Wa). Let's hope he gets it right as the trailer shows he's got this.
Edit: The film just got 6 Oscar nominations including Best Picture and took home Best Supporting Actress for Youn Yuh-Jung.
Wow really. Was gonna give Marc Webb's version a shot regardless, but this news has got me waaayy more interested in the project now.
@@trissc6855 I see parallels of Miyazaki with a touch of Totoro in Minari.
You mean Kimi no Na Wa? I hope he doesn't ruin it :)
@@DisingenuousComment You should be more worried for things like Attack on Titan or One Piece, this sounds more promising.
@@trissc6855 Are they remaking aot and op? I know they are making a one punch man
Koreans this year need to get all the awards, they have taken over the movie/ tv shows/ film industry 🙌. They are genetically born to Act Periot 🥰
❤️❤️
I just watched Minari. Better than I expected. I love the music too. Hope the music score wins Oscar for sure. I also hope the Grandma wins Supporting Actress and Father wins Best Actor. Best Picture would be good too, but Nomadland is a contender to beat.
We just work really really hard, to the point of perfectionism, in the things we care about. We are from a peninsula the size of Ohio and have been constantly invaded and bullied by much larger neighbors for centuries, but we've never been broken. That pressure, over thousands of years, created a people not intimidated by challenges because we know there are worser things than failure so why not give it a shot?
@@edwardkim8972 or they nurtured a really good entertainment industry and nothing to do with eugenics lol
@@stevensudragor when did I ever talk about eugenics? Eugenics means human intervention in the development of desirable human genetic traits. When did I ever mention that?
Here’s my man Steven Yuen. This film looks powerful.
I can totally relate to the feeling where my family is standing in the middle of a small church full of caucasians, while they’re just staring and giving us a weird look.. hope this movie comes out soon. I’m ready to burst into tears.
@@TheCornguy no one said that.
dog not really... it’s just a very distinct feeling of isolation in a crowd of people who look nothing like you
@@sillaykara6245 exactly
As a Ugandan-American who moved to the States when I was 10, this absolutely broke my heart.
dang, you guys can relate too?
@@JH-bb8in everybody who has had an immigrant experience can relate
I feel you
How about a film about how ugandan innigrants in south korea are treated ? you may not be able to pick the pieces of your heart after that.
@@francoislechanceux5818 wtf are you even talking about, are you Chinese?
I love this movie on a deeply personal level, like many other people. I myself am a Korean-American who was born in an immigrant family. I found myself identifying with David’s character in particular. Maybe it’s just the fact that I’m the son. Watching this movie took me back to those warm moments when everything was wondrous and you could explore so much and learn about so much new stuff. So many shots in this movie were reminiscent of my own life; the director did a fantastic job translating his own personal experiences onto film. The memories of staying awake while your grandma snores next to you, the calendar paper, the bringing of red pepper powder and dried anchovies from Korea… beautiful movie.
Watched this on a plane ride & unbeknownst to me I ended up fighting back snot, tears, & a little vomit (vomit-motion sickness, probably) 😃 absolute masterpiece. Films like this inspire me so much to be an actor for wholesome projects.
Get Steven Yeun an OSCAR challenge.
We can make it happen!
Yeh!
Please!!
Unfortunately A24 doesn't have a lot of disposable income that can be spent on campaigning.
YAS!
@@caseyaulbach7693 Maybe Plan B does? That's Brad Pitt's production company and they won with 12 Years a Slave, etc.
I’m not Korean, but as a daughter of an immigrant who put everything in his life on the line to provide for his family, I’m extremely excited to see a story like this on the big screen. Representation like this matters and this is a story millions will be able to see themselves in, despite nationality
This is so true. I'm the daughter of hardworking Mexican immigrants and gosh did this comment resonate with me.
From past lives now im here.. im done watchin past lives watching this right now
Any other movies like past lives and this ?
No Marvel movie can get close to this one. Why? Because this one has a soul.
I saw this in Sundance. And I haven't seen a better movie all year.
Not saying alot due to current circumstances 😂
@@jaysee6619 Lol, true...a much smaller pool of films to see in 2020 for obvious reasons.
Wooow
Okay, you just got me hyped.
Yeah me too. Saw it at Sundance and it was awesome
oh man, for any kid of immigrants, that white kid staring at you with a "wtf" look in church or class is all too real
Goncalo Fonseca have u ever met a kid before
@Goncalo Fonseca do you live underground or,,,
@dog not because of racism darling
monet then because of what exactly..?
@dog he never claimed otherwise? he just gave the example with the "white kid" because the trailer showed a white kid staring at a korean kid. he literally started his sentence by saying "for any kid of immigrants" -- ANY, meaning white kids as well
Just finished this movie, really one of the greatest I’ve ever seen. The grandma is the best film character I’ve ever seen
Just saw the film, and I have got to say that it brings me a plethora of memories from my childhood in South Korea. Although it has been a couple of years since I came to the U.S., I still remember that particular fragrance of my 할머니 (grandmother in Korean), and I still remember arriving to our first house, what a surreal feeling. But I also felt a profound sense of pride to be a Korean-American, because I am living in a nation that contains a treasure trove of different ethnicities, cultures, and all walks of life that coalesce into the United States of America. Sure, we may be going through hard times now, but I know that we will one day rise again, not only as a united nation, but also as an accepting nation, a nation devoid of hate and replete with dignity and pride. People may call me trite, others may call me a dreamer, yet this nation was built upon dashingly beautiful dreams, was it not?
I can see this story reflected in even the Indian immigrant experience. The immigrant experience is universal, and lovely :)
@Jake Thanks for your opinion, Jake.
@@MadMaXXXim ?? bro what are you talking about lol
edit: homeboy deleted his comment rip
Yeah, I'm a first Gen Indian-American. We always get overlooked.
스티븐 연의 한국어 실력에 놀라고, 드디어 한국 이민가정의 영화가 나왔다는 것에 감동을 받는다 ㅜㅜ
미국인들이 미국인에 대한 영화를 찍은 건데.. 감동이 밀려오는 그게 바로 한국인..
an American film
a film directed by the United States
But a foreign language film nominee?
This is the reality of America.
Film is about 90% in korean.. Why are your feelings hurt
couldn’t imagine being this dense
@@promullet cos Inglorious Basterds was mostly German, Italian and French rather than English but that never got categorised as foreign language film- open your damn eyes and see the double standards
@@JH-hh3sq I posted this elsewhere but I think that was just a way to get this movie a win, it wasn't best picture worthy. I was really looking forward to it, love everything Steve Yeun does usually, but let's be honest foreign language is the only shot it had even in a weak movie year.
@Nashaway The official language of USA is not English. America is a country of immigrants. So this movie is the most 'American' movie. I don't like the intention of your question.
Congratulations Yeo-Jung Yun, a well deserved Oscar and the first Korean to win an acting Oscar. 👏
Han yeri is one of my favorite Korean actresses. OMG I’m so happy for her. I will be watching this film
Me too the way she pronounces her lines, I dont know how to explain, but it has this fuzzy, warm, little bit sad vibe and makes me concentrate more
yoooooo i wanna see this
Didn't expect to see you here..
same
Wassup artofkicks, love the vids
anonymous what are you talking about bruh
@@khalilfarah901 lol fr. Have you seen Rush Hour?? We're on the same teamm✊✊🏿
I never would’ve thought I’d be so happy to hear Glenn speaking his native language.
There’s something about A24 being more inclusive rather than completely exclusive. Asian immigrants have come far and wide, and their stories are inspiring. Would love to see them more on the big screen.
