When asked by The Wrap why “Parasite” has become such a global hit, Bong said he “doesn’t know the answer to that.”
“I wish I did, because that would really help my next project,” Bong said. “But I don’t think it’s ever easy to figure out the reason behind success. A
lot of people say that it’s a story about rich and poor, so it can easily resonate and is universal. But I don’t think that’s special in itself, because there have been so many films and TV shows about the same issue.
Perhaps it’s because of how unpredictable the narrative is, or perhaps it’s because of how charming the cast is.”
