President Moon Jae-in attended a special luncheon with Bong Joon-ho, the film director, and the producers and performers of Parasite, which won four awards at the Academy Awards.
Moon invited Bong and other presidents to the Blue House on the day to celebrate the Academy Award and praise the hard work in the production process.
The luncheon was attended by producers Kwae Shin-ae, CEO of Barunson E & A, artist Han Jin-won, artist Han Jin-joon, art director Lee Ha-jun, and editor-in-chief Yang Jin-mo, as well as song Kang-ho, Lee Sun-gyun, Cho Yeo-jung, Park So-dam, Lee Jung-eun, and Jang Hye-jin.
Also included was the director of the Civil Society Senior Officer, Cheong Sung-cheol, who was known to have helped Bong while attending Bong's college motives.
When asked what kind of ties he had, Director Bong laughed and said, "I got a bag of rice when I got married and directed at Chungmuro."
Yuk said, "When I got married, Bong took me for the wedding."
When Moon and his wife, Kim Jong-sook, entered Bong's first introduction to his child actor, Jeong Hyun-joon.
Mr. Moon shook his hand and greeted the other actors.
Bong replied, "I am glad to be here with the actors and staff."
When Mr. Moon said, "My wife is a special fan," she said, "I watched a movie with my husband."
When Bong asked, "I'll give you an instant quiz," I asked the cast of one of the cast, and the atmosphere became more cheerful.
Mr. Song presented two books written by Bong as a gift.
After all attendees sat at the lunch table, President Moon said, "I'm very proud of writing a new history in our 100 years of film, and writing a new Oscar history."
Moon laughed, saying, "Oscar is the most prestigious and best film festival in the world, but there has been criticism that Bong has been a local film festival, as Bong stabbed at the core."
In an interview with the US media 'Bulcher' in October last year, Bong asked, "Korean film has never been nominated for an Oscar for the past 20 years." "It's not that big." "The Oscar is just a local (local film award)." "I focused on what you said.
"But I'm particularly proud of the parasite," said Bong. "Bong is so excellent that it breaks down the barriers to non-English films and makes him the best and the best."
Mr. Moon concluded his greeting by saying that the luncheon menu included `` Chapaguri, '' which was featured in the `` Parasite ''.
In his seven-minute unblocked greeting, Bishop Bong said, "I was shocked to see the president speak long."
Bong said, “I and Song Kang-Ho are both proud to say 'one speech,' but it's almost a two-page scenario that you've talked about from the celebration of the work, to the Korean pop culture and the overall film industry, to Chapaguri.” .
"I don't seem to memorize, but I think I've solved it because I have a topical consciousness about the issues I've embodied in everyday life." "
"I wonder if it's a stream of consciousness," Bong said. "I was shocked as a writer as I saw that I finished with a neat order of logic and perfect vocabulary."
Bong added, "From last year's Cannes Film Festival to the Academy, I came here after a long campaign, and I haven't had a lot of gathering lately."
Actor Song Kang-ho laughed, saying, "I listen to your wonderful words and I compel you to speak well."
Song said, "It's been a long time since we all gathered, and the official event (related to" parasites ") is today (the 20th) is the last time."
