Trending

Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite is a story about two families on opposite sides of wealth. It’s not just about class differences—it’s about how far people will go to survive. The Kim family is poor, desperate, and clever. They find a way to work for the wealthy Park family, slowly taking over their lives. Bong’s direction makes every scene feel sharp and deliberate. The house becomes its own character, with secrets hidden under the surface. The film shifts between humor, tension, and horror without ever feeling off. Bong balances it all perfectly. The turning point in the basement changes everything.
