To talk more about the movie "Minari" and Youn Yuh-jung, the first South Korean actress
to be nominated in an acting category at the Academy Awards, we're joined by Jason Bechervaise,
flim critic and professor of entertainment and arts management at Korea Soongsil Cyber
University.
Great to have you with us.
Are you finding this year's Oscars different from previous years?
What are some of the things that stand
out
from this year's nominations?
South Korean actress Youn Yuh-jung of "Minari" is on track to become the second Asian woman
and the first Korean to win an acting prize in the Oscars.
How do you see her chances of winning the best supporting actress
in the Oscars?
Besides best supporting actress, the movie "Minari" has earned five other Oscar nominations.
Which awards do you expect "Minari" to take home, and what significance
would
it hold?
As a long-time professor and film critic, what's your review of the movie "Minari"?
Korean film "Parasite" made history
at
the Oscars last year by winning best picture.
Do you think the success of "Parasite" has played a role in "Minari's" oscar nominations?
Jason Bechervaise for us tonight.
Thank you.
