[문화]2020’Parasite’ record… the number of audience retreating 20 years ago

[앵커]

In 2020, the film industry was truly a year of mixed joys.

‘Parasite’ set a big record that it was the Academy’s 4th crown, but the number of audiences fell to the bottom as Corona 19 hit the film industry.

‘Parasite’, who won the 4th Academy Awards, has rewritten the history of film not only in Korea but also in the world.

For the first time in the history of an academy, a non-English-speaking film won the Best Picture Award, and the first in the history of the Academy won both the Best Picture and the International Film Award.

In 2020, female actors, directors, producers, and other female filmmakers also showed outstanding performance.

Countless works have been poured out such as’The Day I Die’,’Abi Gyu-Hwan’,’Age 69′,’Chansil has a lot of corridors,”Diva’, and more.

However, the theater district that was hit by the Corona 19 direct hit retreated to 20 years ago with about 60 million audiences a year.

It is 30% of the record in 2019, which was the highest.

With the spread of online culture with COVID-19, OTT has emerged as a new powerhouse.

Netflix is rapidly expanding its reach, with films taking the OTT line over theaters one after another.

In the new year, even Disney+ with powerful content such as Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar will be coming.

The gloomy situation in the theater district is likely to continue, but OTT is expected to face the splendid spring and autumn national era with native platforms such as Watcha, Teabing, and Wave.
