※Director Hong Sang-soo’s translation of the Berlin International Film Festival awards
Hi. This is Hong Sang-soo. Greetings from Korea.
I was surprised and happy to hear that I received the Silver Bear Award.
Thank you for the sympathy of the jury about the movie.
I was happy reading the announcement from the judges. I would also like to thank the Berlin Film Festival and Carlo and Mark for the invitation.
I found this baby snail while walking around the residence with Minhee Kim a long time ago.
I wanted to show you this snail as a small gift.
It’s a difficult time.
Be healthy. Please take good care of yourself.
