No, Andrew. The ending of this film is not open ending. Buying house for dad was not real. It was just the son's plan and fantasy, which will never come true in reality.
THe ending score title is 500 years..meaning from where Kiwoo/Kevin is at the end of the film, it would take him 500 years to save up to buy that house..who lives that long to realize such grand plan?
@@cassiedlp847Maybe bitcoin…
@@cassiedlp847564 years, so yeat thats impossible. The director even said that the only one capable of being rich in the family is jessica which is now dead. The father also said that the best plan is to not have plan at all. So his plan of buying the house is completely impossible
one metaphor that i loved from this movie was the "smell". Poverty is not something that people can help. They cannot just get rich instantly like some people think. It stays, sometimes through generations. Sometimes you can't wash away a smell, because that's the smell you were born with. You're family smelled like that, your house smelled like that. You can't escape it.
When that rich wife was talking about weather was so good bcz of yesterday's rain the look he gave wasn't envy that was anger bcz they lost their everything bcz of that rain the rain was curse for them but rich ppl saw that as was a blessing. That was the theme of that scene
It's supposed to represent economic class...the poor and the lower/middle class fighting to serve the rich
31:12 in this dire situation, the rich dad still had to plug his nose because of the smell of the poor man living in his house's bunker. the poor dad saw that and snapped.
In the movie... everyone is a parasite. That's the lesson I see from it. They all feed off each others weaknesses. And everyone is semi-oblivious to it.
The rich guy was not good to them, he just tolerated them.
They were oblivious to the suffering of others, no empathy.
like a few people have said: you missed on the interpretation. korean cinema, like most distinct asian cinemas, often follow a common theme prevalent in their culture, especially this director. in this case, it is the inequality of a class system in s.korea. this family of clever, industrious individuals can't afford further schooling, private tutoring, certifications, use of connections and the like... to get ahead they had to con their way in. themes of high and low: the rain which freshened the air and washed everything downhill caused the sewage to flood the poor people living in subterranean conditions (sublevel apartment and hidden basement), the source of the "smell." the housekeeper/husband, who worshipped the parks and their wealth, were left to fight over the scraps of the wealthy with the kims, equally destitute.
you missed all the microaggressions from mr and mrs park towards their 'servants.' the ending was in reference to mr kim's assertion that "no plan" is the best. kevin's "plan" will never work as it would take kevin 500 years to afford the house due to stratification of korean society. meanwhile the parks' son, traumatized as he was, had a tutor, a specialized art teacher, a driver, trips, a housekeeper, the best schools, indulgent birthday celebrations, whatever toys he wanted... behaving as he pleased... he will still have every possible advantage. the parks are pretty much parasites living with the poor underfoot. the kims may not the heroes here, but the parks are definitely not the good guys in this movie... mr park calling for the keys so he can drive away while mr kim is holding the daughter/art teacher who is bleeding out? the director himself thinks the themes are obvious, but i'm sure there is a cultural context in western climes where societal mobility is more achievable, at least in theory.
After the movie came out, I caught a few YT film theory scene reviewer for the movie. I really liked the symbolism represented in the whole sequence of the family running back home during the rain storm. You see just how high up the Park family home is situated compared to the Kim family basement home and how far away and down many steps it took them to get back "home." Definitely a big deal about classism in Korea that I'm glad others in the world could now understand. Hoping for ongoing celebration and quality from Korean cinema.
RIP Lee Sun-kyun. Re-watching My Mister and Parasite. May there be unending love and respect for him and his family.
my mister ruined the whole k-drama genre for me, nothing came close to how good this show was.
@@rajatgarg3366My Mister is good but it didnt ruin the genre of kdrama since Incomplete Life is the one who did and it also came out before My Mister
@@viennaz3522 I watched Misaeng-Incomplete Life after My Mister, so it comes a close second FOR ME.

You guys did not get it. I feel like Achara, Michael and even Jaby is good at comprehension of deep plots which aren’t dumbed down for Americans. Sorry but movies like these with so much symbolism aren’t not for you.
it tells a lot on the person on how they react to this movie 😂
@@springday6449 very true. Reaction to Parasite is partly a personality test fr.
Very True. Its very symbolic and there are many hidden meanings.
Unfortunately I feel the same way 😬
RIP LEE SUN KYUN.
Deepest condolences to his loved ones. It never should have happened.
IU looked very angry! They all did.
Absolutely heartbreaking.
A movie that I watched in a classroom (for an assignment that never happened) and then I saw it in the theatre. SHOOKETH in both cases.
What are you studying?
Actor Lee Sun-kyun was like a treasure of Korea.
imagine being a full grown adult and not understanding this movie... this was cringe to watch. I would be embarrassed to post this LOL
No, disregard and contempt for lower classes does not come from a lack of education.
Rich people are hiring private teachers to teach good manners to their children.
They are the most educated ones ; because they can buy time. Having more time is the purpose to hire servants.
That extra of time is invested in collected more knowledge, assuring more power.
They have the time to read news, essays and studies about society.
And they could treat their servants, as their equals and ask them, everyday, how they are going.
They could socialize with them and collect info about their lives, everyday.
That is not a deficit of education. Instating a distance with their servants, treating them as pieces of furniture, is part of their education.
Because lifetime of servants is treated, as a disposable thing by upper class ; the upper class is the parasite of lower classes lives.
The driver does not kill the owner of the house by envy.
He is expecting a gesture from the guy with much power than him, to save his daughter's life.
There is a young woman on the floor that is bleeding to death.
And the rich guy reaction is not to pick the phone to call for rescue, or to try to stop the maniac with a knife.
It is to flee. To flee, keeping his contempt for lower classes.
The upper class stinks. That is the one who deserves to die from its disregard. But that is not what is happening.
That are lower classes, that are dying from pollutions and floodings and things hidden in the basement of a society, owned, shaped, built by the upper class, to satisfy her and only her.
When the film showed up to my town in 2019 I rushed to see it because the actor Lee Sun-Kyun was in it. A year before he had been the lead it the best series that I've ever seen, 'My Mister' (My Ajusshi).
RIP Lee Sun-Kyun 😭
you should watch "my wife's having an affair." one of his best dramas imo.
This movie represents the disparities and huge contrast between the rich and the poor. It starts by showing that the poor fam were the parasites leeching off the parks but the end showed that the actual parasites are the rich who can not survive without the poor serving and working for them.
The rich people in the movie are paying for the services they're getting so how are they "parasites"?
@@eatsmylifeYT oh you baby of sunshine and rainbow
@@timaalo154 Oh, is that supposed to insult me?
@@eatsmylifeYTPerhaps you can interpret it as the rich people can afford to pay for all the service not because they earn it and deserved it, but because they are priviledged from the day they were borned.
Whereas those poor would who work to their bone will never stand a chance to live a decent live because 10% of these rich priviledge are owning 90% of the national resources (money/work opportunities/education and etc.), while the remaining 90% of population are forced to compete for the remaining 10% of resource and equivalent to only 10% of money flow in the free market are available to be earned by these 90% of population. Ain't that similar to how parasite works?
That's why you can say the priviledge are leeching on most of the resources that suppose to meant for the entire population, and forced the poor to serve the priviledge class and even lose their dignity in the process even tho they are both citizen of this country who meant to be equal, yet the financial imbalance status has sabotage such equality.
@@JeusAlprime108 No. You don't know how the world works, don't you?
And you also don't know what a parasite is.
I feel like things wouldn't have turned out ugly if the mom would've just compromised with the ex housekeeper knowing her situation was somewhat similar.
RIP Lee Sun-kyun...😢
This is such an amazing movie. It talks about class divide and when you see it in the theatre it also reveals the class the audience belongs to in society . You immediately resonate and understand the characters that belong to the same class as you. Ofcourse there are exceptions but mostly it's applicable universally in the capitalist society. The rich people belong to upper class, the house keeper middle class and the main family is lower class. It's so interesting how self refectory the movie is.
director showed two diffrent colours for rich and poor too { the cameo of Park Seojoon , his friend at starting } is a great actor too he recetly came in marvels movie and they both r best friends too
If you loved this you should check out another masterpiece from this director "Memories of murder 2003" based on real life events. I'd love to see you guys reacting to it
이선균배우의 영면을 기원합니다, 영상 감사합니다, R.I.P,, my mister,
the deeper layers and symbolisms in this movie is not for average movie buffs. Every frame is filled with symbolisms which add to the aesthetics of the movie. As it is said, 'Privileges are not seen to those who are privileged'. Anyway it's just the first watch. U can appreciate the movie more in 2nd or 3rd watch after a thorough analysis of the movie.
thank you
ALL characters are parasite of each others, not only the low level chararcters🤔
Awww was excited to see Andrew react to this movie but seeing the comments about how the movie went over their heads, I'll skip it. Disappointed sigh... You'd think Andrew would have picked up on the division of class and other similar themes popular with Korean cinema/dramas due to watching what I feel is enough to see that it's an issue that is explored pretty often, though might not be the main theme usually. Also picking up some cultural ideas that exist in all Korean (possibly most Asian) media. 😢
I don't know if you two have seen it, but Jung Ji-So, who plays the daughter Park Da-Hye, also plays the young Moon Don-Eun in "The Glory".
That was her?!?!? 🤯🤯
@@cassiedlp847 Yup! She's the daughter of the rich couple.
@@eatsmylifeYT she was so good in the Glory I didn't realize she was Da-hye..the growth she between these 2 projects is amazing!
@@cassiedlp847 True! I didn't recognize her at first in "The Glory" but I knew I'd seen her before.
I think he snapped because of the selfishness of it all. His daughter and wife where brutally stabbed gushing blood in front of everyone, yet the the rich dad wanted the car for the kid who merely fainted, and the man still had time to be dramatic about the damn smell. Like come on
Andrew was literally sweating watching this 😂
For the type of house he wanted to buy in the end, the type of job he has, there is an estimation that it would take 564 years or so for him to purchase it. His dad will get caught and or die down there and there is nothing he can do about it.
RIP, Great Actor Lee Sun-Kyun
Wow totally went over their heads 😕
RIP Lee Sun-kyun
4:04 These Korean cybercafes are so good!
Can't believe these two have no damn idea about what's going on in the film and they are calling themselves "movie reactors". they are earning while watching movies and they are not even understanding the layers of the complexity, the class difference, the minute emotions, the parallels. It's ridiculous and laughable.
NOW HEAR ME OUT!! Death's Game is a must watch everyone, you'll gon love it, I'm so sure!🤗
Is that the one with the painter killing people for art?
@@aditisk99 yup! I recommend it, it's such an eye opener about mental health too.
u guys missing the important points of the movie and commenting on unnessary things. meh reaction
I have a list of suggestion/Recommendations for u guys to react pls:
-. Alice in borderlands (same vibe w/sweethome but still unique)
-. Twinkling Watermelon
-. Death Game
-. Its ok to not be okay
-. Flower of evil
-. Itawon class
-. Night has come
-. Happiness
-. Move to heaven
-. Doona
-. Mouse
-. Taxi driver
-. Vagabond
-. Weak Hero
All worth it!
Sure the poor family conned their way into their jobs in an unethical manner, but so what? What other ethical options were they drowning in that they could afford to discard the Park family lifeline and wait for the next squeaky-clean opportunity? Doesn't your criticism amount to saying that they should just always stay in their place, and never cross the line? The film shows a lot of hints that the poor family was competent and over-qualified, but following the rules and having a plan had never worked out for any of them. It's certainly convenient for the oppressors if the oppressed behave, but is that actual justice?
Guys when are you gonna watch the gyeongseong creature?
How is it?
This Movie is so engaging
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS VIDEO
Love your reactions...!! Thanks for watching Korean movies!!
기생충이 2019년에 나왔다구요??!?!?!??

you two completely missed so many points its sad
Please react to "Reply 1988"
Please watch flower of evil
Please react to death's game 💗✨
I like this movie but it felt like two very different films. I prefer the first 2/3 to the end.
that was on purpose actually, the director said the movie is a comedy-horror/thriller, and right in the middle it makes a shift (the nanny's call), it's genius lol
@yuu5175 I know it was on purpose. Also she wasn't a nanny.
Si many white American never understand this movie
RIP actor Lee Sun Kyun, your work "My Mister" would always be one of my all times favourite drama.
Btw, there is a newly finish airing Netflix Kdrama called "Death Game" where Park So Dam aka Jessica in this movie play the role as Death who host the game for a deceased who disrespect Death by how he end his own life.
P.S: A Fun Fact: the daughter of this rich family is the one who play young Moon Dong Eun in "The Glory"
First!✋
worth oscer winning movie...choi woo sik is just phenominal actor
React on My demon❤
Kinda sad you didn't get the message of the movie. Maybe it's a privileged point of view to not get the struggles of low class and how everyone is fucked up bc capitalism so we feed off each other. When he started saying "Am I supposed to be rooting for them?!" I understood this was pretty much a superficial reaction lol
The sarcastic giggle I let out at 10:48 😭
can you watch alice in bonderland?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊🐟🐋🦈🐳👏😘😍
🔥 ୧⍤⃝🍿 🔥
봉준호 감독은 “1인치 자막의 장벽을 뛰어넘으면 여러분들은 훨씬 더 많은 영화를 즐길 수 있습니다.” 라고 말했다. 자막없이 이 작품을 볼 수 있어서 행복하다. ~~
Pls React to Uncanny Counter Series, it is great series
uhmmm..it's just average..and the 2nd season? lol
I actually don't see why people so hyped about Uncanny Counter..I did enjoy watching the series but their was nothing great to write home about..there are a bunch of series that deserves more hype..
아😂이선균!명복을빕니다
React is okay to not be okay
Second 😄
Please react to hidden love after this ❤❤😊(c-drama)
Please react to Alchemy of souls season 2
저 집은 매우 비싸다. 아들이 10000000$의 집을 사는것은 현실적으로 불가능에 가깝다.
This people don't understand anything
wow i'd be embarrassed to post this if i was you, let alone continue to react to other movies. talk about going over your heads whooosh.
Overrated
RIP Lee Sun-kyun
