Parasite Is Coming to Hulu in April

Concerns over the worldwide coronavirus pandemic have led BTS and other musicians to cancel their upcoming concerts. On Thursday in South Korea alone, 256 new cases of coronavirus were reported, bringing the total number of reported cases to over 2,000.

With nearly 90,000 cases of coronavirus reported worldwide, the live music industry is continuing to see high-profile artists cancel shows out of safety concerns. Following announcements last week that rock legends Green Day canceled shows in Asia and global superstars BTS canceled shows in their native South Korea, several more artists have put a halt to their dates in the region.

Bong Joon Ho's Parasite is to get an April 8 launch on Hulu after its historic Oscar best picture victory. The South Korean dark comedy-thriller will get an exclusive run on Hulu after Neon earlier sold the video platform the U.S.

After Parasite’s historic success at the 2020 Oscars, the world soon may be seeing more of the film’s now-beloved ensemble cast. The various actors who comprised the film’s wealthy Park family and the plucky, impoverished Kims were each already big stars at home in South Korea.

Parasite made history earlier this month by becoming the first-ever foreign-language film to win an Oscar for Best Picture and the studio behind the film is not ready to let anyone make fun of their well deserved success. During his latest speech at a rally, US President Donald Trump mocked Oscars for giving the award to the South Korean film film.

The movie studio behind — the South Korean film that made history earlier this month as the first-ever international movie to win the Best Picture Oscar — has responded to President Donald Trump's digs during a campaign rally in Colorado.

While the world appreciated the Academy for recognising talent beyond boundaries and language barriers when they presented Parasite with Best Picture award at Oscars 2020, US President Donald Trump did not think it was a good idea. While delivering a speech at a rally on January 20, Trump mocked Oscars for the South Korean film’s historic win, Variety reported.

As Bong Joon-ho accepted the third Oscar for the night for his masterpiece of a film, Parasite, the South Korean filmmaker made sure to give a major shoutout to his fellow nominees - Martin Scorsese for The Irishman, Quentin Tarantino for Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, Sam Mendes for 1917 and Todd Phillips for Joker.

Bong Joon Ho’s “Parasite” is reaping box office riches after its groundbreaking Oscar best picture win.

The world is Bong Joon Ho’s oyster following last Sunday’s Oscar triumph.

After South Korean thriller Parasite bagged Best Picture and three additional Oscars at the 92nd Academy Awards, director Bong Joon-ho was ready for a night of drinking and merriment, as he expressed several times during his acceptance speeches. After all, he had just made history alongside the film's talented cast. Bong and company packed up after the event dissipated and headed out into LA's Koreatown for a late-night celebration at the restaurant Soban.

Parasite made history this week. The South Korean movie directed by Bong Joon-ho won three prestigious awards at the 92nd Academy Awards. From bagging the Oscars for Best Direction to beating 1917, Marriage Story, Jojo Rabbit and several other movies to bag the Best International Feature, Parasite became the first international movie in the almost 100-year long history of the award show to have won the Best Picture award. The movie has received praise from critics all over the world. 

It was Bong Joon-ho's night as his masterpiece Parasite dominated at the Oscars 2020 and picked up not one or two, but four Academy Awards. Parasite won the Oscar for Best Picture, the Academy Award for Directing for Bong, International Feature Film and Original Screenplay for Bong and Kwak Sin-ae. The reason why the Best Picture win, in particular, is so monumental is that it's the first South Korean and more significantly non-English language film to be honoured with the prestigious award.

It was a moment of pride for the South Korean film industry after Parasite bagged the highest number of awards at the 92nd Academy Awards over the weekend. The Korean drama film not only won Best International Film but also bagged the Oscar for Best Directing and Best Picture. Soon enough, the internet was flooded with congratulatory messages addressing director Bong Joon Ho and the team of Parasite. BTS joined social media users to congratulate Parasite for their historic win. 

It was indeed a memorable night for Team Parasite and the captain of their ship, Bong Joon-ho as the South Korean film bagged four big awards including Best Picture, Directing, International Feature Film and Original Screenplay. Making history as not just the first South Korean film to bag these awards, Parasite also became the first non-English language film to win the prestigious Oscar in the Best Picture category, beating out other favourites like 1917, The Irishman and Little Women.

Neon is doubling the North American run of best picture Oscar winner “Parasite” to as many as 2,000 locations.

“Parasite” made history as the first foreign language film to ever win the Academy Award for best picture, in addition to taking home three other awards for best director, best international feature film and best original screenplay. It earned South Korea its first Oscar nominations and wins ever.

Parasite made history at the 2020 Academy Awards on Sunday (February 9, 2020) as it became the first non-English language film to be crowned Best Picture.
