“PARASITE” made history at the Golden Globes this year after it won as Best Foreign-Language film – a first for South Korea.
“Once you overcome the one-inch-tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films” director Bong Joon Ho said during his acceptance speech.
The film was already critically-acclaimed by various award-giving bodies prior to the Golden Globes and was a certified blockbuster hit.
“The Farewell” actress Awkwafina became the first woman of Asian descent to bag the best actress trophy for a musical or comedy film at the Golden Globes.
“I’d like to dedicate this to my dad, Wally. I told you I’d get a job, Dad. [And] to my grandma, my best friend, the woman who raised me. And to my mother Tia, who I always hoped was watching from somewhere above,” the actress said upon accepting the award. (Push)
