“I feel the emotional distress of the Olympic players”… ‘Buttercup family’ impressions

‘Minari’, nominated for six academy categories…thanks from the director and actors

“I couldn’t imagine that something like this would happen” (director Jeong Isaac)
“I think this nomination alone is like winning an award” (Actor Yeo-jung Yoon)

The protagonists of the movie’Minari’, who were nominated in six categories at the Academy Awards, gave their nominations. It is said that the’Minari Family’ scattered in Korea and the United States met with video after the candidate was announced. Director Isak Jeong and actors Stephen Yeon, Han Ye-ri, Yoon Yeo-jung, and Alan Kim sent their thanks in writing.

Director Jeong Isak, who challenged the Academy Awards after coach Bong Joon-ho of’Parasite’ last year, said, “It seems that the’water parsley’ that my grandmother planted in the water has grown well and became a blessing.” He added, “I would like to express my special thanks to my mother, father, and sister who filled my Arkansas farm house with love, and I would like to express my gratitude to my wife and daughter, who are most important to me.” He also said, “I am grateful to the Korean audience for supporting me to create a history that honors Mr. Yoon’s work on the world stage.”

Yoon Yeo-jung, who was nominated for the Academy Acting Award for the first time as a Korean actor, wrote, “I am sorry that I cannot meet you directly because I came back after doing’foreign currency’ and are in quarantine.” “I was really grateful for my support so far, but honestly, it was very burdensome. I could feel the emotional distress of the Olympic athletes.” They said they hated competition, and all five nominations together said that they were like winning awards because they did their best in their own films. In an interview with a foreign press, he added a peculiar joke, saying, “I have to drink congratulations. The manager (in quarantine) cannot drink, so I will have to drink alone.”

Stephen Yeon, the first Asian-American in Oscar history to be nominated for Best Actor, said, “Thank you for the academy that gave me the honor to be nominated with great artists.” “If there is anything we have learned through movies over the past few years, we must share our lives together,” he said. Han Ye-ri, who also sang the OST’Song of Rain’, said, “I miss the house and the people we all dine with.” Cute scene stealer Alan Kim said, “I’m really excited,” and gave a lively impression.

‘Minari’ writes a new history by being nominated for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Screenplay, and Best Music Awards. The Academy Award, the largest film award in the United States, also referred to as the’Oscar Award’, is voted by nearly 10,000 academy members around the world. The awards ceremony will be broadcast live at two locations in Los Angeles on the 25th of next month.
