Today (10th) 8 o'clock news will start with good news for a long time. The movie 'Parasite' written by director Bong Joon-ho rewrote the history of the world film. At the Academy Awards today, she won four awards, including the Best Picture, Best Director, International Film, and Screenplay. It was the first time in the 92 years of the Academy Award that a foreign language movie, a movie made in a language other than English, won a work award.

Correspondent Jeong Jun-hyung delivered the first news in Hollywood, USA.

[Film parasites.]

When parasites were called to the work that adorned the Academy Awards, Bong Joon-ho and other crew members and cast members embraced each other with unbelief.

Film Parasites have won the Academy Award for four of their most prestigious awards, including Directors, Screenplays and International Films.

Several records of the 92-year history of the Academy were also replaced.

Overcoming the barriers to subtitles, I received my first prize as a foreign language film.

It is the first time a movie has received both an Academy Award and an International Film Award.

The Golden Palm Award winner at the French Cannes Film Festival won the Academy Award for the second time in its history, 64 years after 1956.

Bong Joon-ho is also the first Asian director to receive an Academy Award for his film made in Asia rather than Hollywood.

Parasites were nominated for art and editorial awards, but failed to win either category.

The Sewol disaster tragedy documentary 'Memories of Absence', which was nominated for a short documentary award, was unfortunately not called as a winner.

The parasite has become one of the masterpieces of the world's film history, with the highest award of the Academy, the symbol of the American film industry.
