Bong Joon-Ho's ‘Parasite’ Streaming on Hulu Is Just What We Needed
Bong Joon-Ho's Oscar-winning film Parasite has finally made its way to streaming services. First up is Hulu, as subscribers of the Walt Disney-owned platform can now watch the 2020 Best Picture winner — and the internet is going wild.
Parasite was nominated for six Academy Awards this year, while securing four. In addition to Best Picture, the movie landed Best Original Screenplay, Best Director, and Best Foreign Language Film.
Released in 2019, Parasite tells the story of a lower class family who initiates a plan to become employed by a wealthy household. Once one member is embedded into the family's day-to-day life, he begins to immerse the rest of his kin as they engage in various activities that they're not exactly qualified for.
Revered South Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-Ho, who is responsible for other standouts such as Snowpiercer and Okja, not only directed the film, but he also co-wrote the screenplay with Han Jin-Won. It stars Song Kang-Ho, Lee Sun-Kyun, Cho Yeo-Jeong, Choi Woo-Shik, Park So-Dam, Jang Hye-Jin, and Lee Jung-Eun.
