SEOUL - South Korean social media erupted in celebration on Monday after the dark comedy “Parasite” netted the country’s first-ever wins at the Academy Awards.
“I’m ready to drink tonight,” Bong joked, after thanking the cast and staff during his acceptance speech for the International Feature Film award. “Just like BTS had a popular appeal by casting the problems the youth go through everywhere in the world, ‘Parasite’ gained global understanding by demonstrating the issue of the gap between the rich and poor,” pop culture critic Kim Hern-sik said, referring to the K-pop boyband that has found wide success in the United States and around the world.
One clip making the rounds on South Korean social media mocked a reporter who asked Bong why he shot the film in Korean.
