Ok so Parasite follows the Kim family who end up infiltrating a wealthy elite family under the guise of being something they're not. They very much have a parasitic relationship with them and this is hinted at early on in the movie when we're first introduced to them.
Living in a basement home we catch them in despair as they realise that the person who's wifi they'd been piggybacking off of had now put a password on it. However they manage to pick up a signal in the bathroom which means they can use the free wifi from a copy shop down the road. They're very much parasites of that wifi connection but the similarities to a lowly life form don't stop there.
We catch them folding pizza boxes and they're very much in a symbiotic relationship with a fast food company who require lots of hands in order to do this but they don't have the money to take on full time members of staff. The Kims don't do the job probably and a quarter of the boxes are unusable but the pizza company have no other option which the Kim's somewhat play upon.
Not long after we watch workers spraying pesticide in the street and this is commonly used to kill bugs and parasites. It blows into their basement home and this basement home of course foreshadows some of the reveals that we get in the movie.
After realising their phones have been cut off Chung-Sook asks her husband Ki-taek what his plan is but we never really get an answer. Later on in the film Ki-taek reveals that it's better to not have a plan as plans always go wrong and if you don't have one then nothing bad can happen.
This some what juxtaposes the end of the film in which the son Ki-Woo says that he's making a plan to go to university, become successful and then buy the house so that his father can finally come out of the basement.
I've seen a lot of back and forth over the film, namely whether this ending is something that happens and we'll discuss why it's pretty bad news for the family later on in the video.
Now with the success of Squid Game I thought I'd revisit some Korean classics that really show why the country is currently leading the way when it comes to TV shows and Movies. They just seem to be adept at creating outstanding original stories that are layered with social commentary and Parasite is no different.
The oscar winning film is layered with hidden details, things you missed and a lot of clues that hint towards the eventual reveals that I wanna breakdown in this video.

Stop autotranslate your titles they make zero sense in Dutch
Amazing movie 👍
@@Starfishtroopers need to check it out
@@Starfishtroopers I read that as Deutsch 😂
Cmon I’m waiting for the “my name” break down!!!
The thing is that all members of the family have the qualifications and skills for those jobs but they don't have a "diploma", "status" to actually access those jobs because that's all people care about, they only care about papers and "connections". Even having a diploma or certification is not enough, they still need the "connection recommendation".
"It's not 'what' you know but 'who'..." 😦
In the beginning of the movie, the mom comically said "you should have brought food" when they received the stone from son's friend. This draws parallel to when Jessica could have brought food to the man in the basement but instead the son brought the stone, cause the following murders.
Well Jessica tried to take food to the basement but Kim lady distracted her.
One big detail I caught was that when the rich mother and poor father drive home from the grocery store, the father overheard the mother say that the rain (the same rain that flooded and destroyed the Kim’s family’s home) was a blessing because it cleared the grass or something of that sort. An eye-opening thing in regards to people of the higher class becoming blind to the harsh realities the lower class face.
I think he said something about it washing away the smell of pollution.
Put yourself in there shoes. How would they know that somthing like that happened to the poor people. And would you care enough to check if everyone was in the city was alright after some rain? I'd get annoyed if they knew it caused devastation but they dont so.
@@RAV3. they don’t cuz they’re rich and ignorant lol
@@imamanchestagirl1990 has nothing to do with being ignorant lol. It's just realistically not somthing anyone would hear about
That’s like a major plot point not really a detail lol
On an upbeat note, Id like to think that the reason the rock doesn't float at the end is because, unlike previous hollow promises, symbolised by the rock which floated, the promise that he makes to buy the house is truly meant and that is why the rock is real in that scene
for real, that rock in the end scene legit looks like a real rock
7:18 ngl i probably would have had a seizure too if i saw that in my house so i dont blame this kid at all, literally one of the most terrifying things ive seen
Bro when I watched this scene I shit my pants
@@Idiboy123 just watched it rn 17:51 29/05/2024. Such a show fr!!!
I believe the mother playing the current housekeeper who kicks the other down the stairs is a reminder that hierarchy is human nature and those at the bottom who climb up the social ladder are often just as likely to maintain their status by treating the others badly, keeping them from rising.
i believe quite the opposite - as this is a very obviously anti-capitalist film and it implies that the system puts people (even members of the same working class who would otherwise be friends, as she said that she was nice) against eachother. So not really natural, but this is how they were made to have no choice and see who is the "strongest" to survive- literally
This movie had a lot of “Metamorphosis” by Franz Kafka vibes. Down to the very end in how certain characters switched roles with others.
I completely agree with you...the way some people live underground like worms or insects...
How so would you say? I'm familiar with Kafka's Metamorphosis but I don't really see any large parallels between the plots because Metamorphosis only focuses on the Samsa family without much interaction with outsiders (aside from Gregor's general manager and the subtenants)? I also feel like they have very different messages and interpretations, so I would be interested in your opinion
@@leparraindufromage366 if you view both works of art through the lens of end-stage-capitalism where protagonist/main family have to turn into disgusting creatures to keep up with capitalism and it’s requirements.
Metamorphosis - family use the main character as a piggy bank and then when they have no use for him they literally kill him and move on to the younger daughter/sister as a new parasitic relationship through which to live
Parasite (literally a parallel to Metamorphosis) - the whole family uses the elite family like parasites disposing problems as they arise because within their capitalistic structure they’d rather Leech off of “hard work” than do any of it themselves.
Daebak! I'm a fan of both and I just noticed
you could even say that the rock statuette has a staircase-like structure to it
nice catch
I love how this movie explored a different side of an overused topic (rich vs poor). We've seen so many films that cover the black & white, such as the evil corrupted rich taking advantage of the poor. While that's a sad truth, it's only a portion of the real power dynamic in our society. We often overlook how the poor is always fighting with each other when they could be pulling their heads together and help each other. We see so many examples through everyday crime news (all the hate crimes, neighborhood crimes, small business/convenience store robbery).
The reality is, most middle-elite class in modern society are just minding their own business. Sure, there's a portion of rich people who are truly evil. But really, the rest of them simply don't give a shit about what's going down in the lower class community. Their main interest is on which company they should invest on next. That means they also have no business in directly harming the poor. At the same time, they casually look down on the poor people living in the same city while also casually donating money to Unicef.
Rich person: hey I didn't directly harm the poor! I just invested 10,000,000 dollars into BlackRock and Lockheed martin!
Black on black crimes come to mind. The media normally disregards that type of crime!
the indifference of the rich towards the poor is exactly why they are often seen as evil. their wealth comes from the misery of the poor at every step of the way yet they have no will to change it.
@@salmansengulthis has to be the most casually racist comment i have ever read. you’re disgusting & should be more focused on school shootings, domestic terrorists, & white on white crime.
@@salmansengulwhat?
11:07 changes in light will almost instantly cause the pupils to react, if someone has been in dark for too long the instance that light shines, the pupils will be pin pointed to the size of a grain of sand!
that's why doctors swing a flashlight back and forth to detect if the brain is still functioning and alive, and that's a very rapid movement!
This is a great breakdown! Learnt so much more than other videos covering this movie xx
I'm a big fan of Bong Joon-ho films from recent years. Loved parasite and watched sooo many 'what you missed' videos after watching the movie BUT STILL you added new information I haven't seen in other videos. Thanks for always being so thorough!
5:35 notice how on the maid’s side the steps are going down while on the daughters side they’re going up..
Your introduction is a piece of art.. I love the comparison with “snowpiercer”, from the back bottom paying blood all the way long to the front, yet this one is very local, that only Koreans could understand some of the slang phrases.. I agree the end is just a fantasy
I also checked out this movie after finishing squid games, and it was phenomenal. Was originally disappointed that you didn’t have any videos that covered it. Until now!
Man, I've been watching several "Parasite" videos to prepare for a Movie Club discussion I'm participating in tomorrow about the film, and, well, this breakdown is the BEST yet. LOTS of great insight! Great job! Subscribing...
Movie club discussion? Okay nerd! Can i join ? lol
한국어로 번역까지 해주시고 너무 감사합니다. 잘 보겠습니다.🙂🙂🙂
Excellent analysis brub. I honestly pity the people who don't want to read subtitles, they're missing on a lot of great movies like this.
I just wish Ki-Jung didn't die :(
The rich wife calls the rain a blessing because it clears the air from the yellow dust from china and other air pollution. Not because they come back from camping.
I love how they foreshadowed the light. When the mom was talking to Jessica the light for the stair way seemingly turns off by itself
Awesome! Thanks
Great analysis
90% of the world are the have-nots. That's why Parasite, Snowpiercer and Squid Game did so well. The Koreans are honestly capturing this predicament and giving hopes and false happy ending. Will the sheep ever hunt the wolves in real life?
Of course they won’t
Yeah, it's called revolution.
An absolute piece of art in korean film making!!!
A very overrated film.
Yep quite overrated
Thanks for the video! I haven't realized about the ending song and the rock!
I remember watching this film in the cinema and felt such awe as to how the director executed such mastery in all aspects of the film. More importantly though I was filled with rage and sadness because it depicts the the harshness of humans towards each other. I do feel that change is upon us as we see our current world turning upside. Unfortunately, chaos is part and parcel of change. The coming years will be challenging but we need these changes even more now.
🙌🏼❤️
Hey Paul, thanks for the video! It definitely wasn't my favorite movie by a long shot, but it was engaging. Hearing all of these extra details definitely makes it better though!
Thanks for the comment, always nice to read positive stuff
Who cares if it wasnt your favorite you didnt have to say that smh
Just seen this again yesterday and it’s still a masterpiece.
@Heavy Spoilers
Great video Paul! You nailed all the key details like the “free extermination” fumigation scene that foreshadowed who the parasites would be. I’m really hoping that this review will lead you to review Bong Joon Ho‘s other classics *The Host* and *Snowpiercer.*
It’s a shame that so many people are deterred by subtitles. It’s like they almost need to make an English version. I’m glad I watched this film.
Many Americans have short attention span so they can’t watch and read at the same time
Awesome 👌
One of the best films I have ever watched! It was just that amazing!
This was a great breakdown ! So many things I missed I can't wait to go back and re watch and than make all my friends that haven't seen it watch it and rewatch it untill they understand it's brilliance!
Such a fantastic movie and layered breakdown.
Both awesome.
Also underground with a plan to return to the surface... Mephisto.
Connected.
Awesome video Sir 👍👍👍
Probably my first time being this early😅. Keep up the good work!
i just watched this movie for the first time and wow, I didn't even pick up on all the nuances! Great, very original story! Korean movies can be so fantastic!
Amazing video Spoiler Man 👍
One of the best films ever made and really helped push Korean cinema into the spotlight!
Yeah it’s a classic
i know the ending is probably a fantasy and the credits song kinda explains what happens instead but I hate sad/ambiguous endings so im gonna say that the ending is real and they were able to live happily together (although im really sad that the sister actually died cuz I liked her character and its really depressing that she wont be able to join her family in living their dream)
Another great video, thanks for sharing
Awesome video Paul!!!!
Great video, still trying to figure out what he drew when comparing Jessica to a rose. I know what the actor said in the Q and A but, what was Bong’s intention. Also love the transition of Da-Hye playing with the corner of the work sheet and then her mother counting the money. Also love the symbolism of the toilet up the stairs. Bloody brilliant movie. Not ashamed to admit I’ve watched it seven times now.
Could u pls tell what did he draw or what was said in the qna or the link maybe?
Also this playing with the corner of the worksheet signified?
He drew the ghost (the man who lived in the basement) .. facial features resemble him ...
Great movie
Oh I was not expecting this breakdown!!!
Man that is a 10 out of 10 thumbnail right there love it
Completely agree, love that scene
WOOOOOOO I love the Korean Film Appreciation
I watched this film for the first time since it's premiere,and i actually appreciated the way the "parasitic" family grifted the wealthy family in the first half of the movie esp yhe part where they set up the houskeeper as having TB - i actually clapped when the father took the Kleenex out of the bin after putting ketchup on it,and showing the lady of the house - her face...thought she was going to faint- piceless. But funnily the removal of the housekeeper leads to the real "parasitic" behaviour being shown,this film deserved its zOscar imo.
Greatful comments👌👌👌
Brother also watch memories of murder it was also directed by bong joon ho it was one of his best
07:18 my favorite scence. Something so simple looks creepy af
Great analysis.
Just finished this film
I wanna watch it again
holy moly!
This movie crazy, extracurricular a banger too
One of my favourite movies of all time, if not THE favourite, loving this video
Cheers mate
RESPECT!!!!
It’s definitely a movie to see 2 times and enjoy the scenes that foretell what will happen.
RESPECT!
This is best best review ever, now I can watch this movie from a very different perspective.
Masterpiece movie 🔥🔥🔥
I literally watched this amazing movie again 2 days ago with my wife. She loved it. This is perfect timing!
Ey hope you enjoy the video
Can you do a Breakdown of Netflix's My Name (undercover) ???
have you seen extracurricular? would like to see a video on that if u have
tf is that thumbnail bro
This movie is great. I should rewatch it now.
Clicked for the thumbnail! Haha 👣🐾
Same here
Best part of the movie!😂
The stairs are blocked when ki-taek is going out to meet his son
That bathroom situation 😳
You should do some Korean horror films since.. you know.
I'd say why there is no definitive bad guy in this movie is that at times we all are bad. We all can be parasites. We all are parasites. On each other. On the world. On each other's WIFI.
Also the toilet up a stairway kind of means shit flows downhill. It flows downhill no matter the class. We all shit on those "lower" than us. Imo.
This movie was absolutely amazing! Loved to learn more about some small details I missed, like the number of chairs changing.
One thing that really struck me are the themes of togetherness and being apart in the movie. The poor family is almost always together. In their small home, going out to eat together, getting a job together and even when the Parks are away and they are in their house you see them coming together again. Meanwhile the Parks mostly seem to live very seperate lives. They are hardly in the same room as each other and that only seems to change once they employ the poor family.
You also see it all fall apart for the poor family when they all split up during the birthday party and final scenes. They are all physically and mentally in different places. The father seems to have made up his mind that he will kill the people in the basement. Meanwhile the mother who actually killed the women by kicking down the stairs thinks everyone was overreacting and maybe they can talk it all out today.
Also can u do a breakdown of birdman 🐦
Loved the movie💯💯🖤❤️🔥i feel lile with everything that happened to him he will have the strength to actually go to university and become rich to get the house
SK leading the way in cinema fr
Wth I literally rewatched it yesterday lmao
Wow
hoyya hoyya
Omg the "hollow rock", I didn't know what...it changes my perspective now...thank you for telling us
In order to truly appreciate Korean or other Asian films, one has to be detailed oriented and know how to read backgrounds.
Nice catch especially the money part where rich mom takes out few cash before handing it to the dude and acted like she put more for him than his friend Min for sake of “inflation”
The subtle comedy is something always talked about less
Hollow rock symbol of fortune in movie Parasite can be key holder bought from ebay. Not everyone is stupid put key under door mat :) Maybe is Spaceballs code from glass firmament is 12345.
God I am so dumb. I watched this in the background of doing something else, and was almost entirely lost at what it meant 😅
someone tell me best Korean movies and series, i've only seen parasite and squid games.
I might be the only one on this but I feel bad for the MC. Yes it was like a parasite that he got the job. However, I believe that he is a victim of his surroundings. He’s just trying to do what’s best for his family. Is is wrong for what he did 100% yes, but I feel like he is actually a good person who wants to do the right thing. That’s kinda what I got from it. I might be the only one on this.
Hi
I honestly thought you been did this 😅
Parasite was pretty good.
You are such a genius. Respect!!
Da-song fell in love with native american culture frfr, its funny because he was the first person to be accused of being a liar but slick was the only one who wasn't. ram don wasn't his favorite evident because he had zero interest in it. Ms park told the housekeeper to make ramen because she wanted it, but didn't want her husband to think she's a fat girl 😂
The question left unanswered though is when they all went into the basement and first discovered the lady’s husband, why was her face cut and beaten up? Was it because it was hard to cut the security cameras or did something else happen? I’m deeply confused about that part.
She fell while moving the bookshelf. It happened on screen
@@doych999 it was fucked up before she got into the house though?
I think she was also still having a bad reaction to the peach fuzz.
I’m pretty sure it was said that they used loan sharks cause the husband owed a lot of money. I’m sure they beat her up asking for it.
No , it was because of the loan sharkers ... That's why she came to see her husband
Tarantino thumbnail
But no Young justice coverage :’(
Please follow this up with train to busan and okja thank you!
Yeah I wanna do train to busan next
Yo! I didn't realize that the title of this movie goes in pair with one of his others ! The Host ! Get it ? The host and parasite exist together in nature lol
“im just a terrible terrible youtuber” 😂😂😂
Can the father even survive alone in the basement ? There’s no one having access to give him some food 😢
I hope he dies
@@gabrielalvarado7849 he prob did, if it was all fantasy, but mane, I sense some hate here. It’s Christmas time
question why didn’t he just leave the basement when the house was empty to go back to his family
@@ChefSporty he couldn’t dude, wanted murderer and still without anything.
Security cams would’ve catched him or someone else all possible, but yet not needed for the movie plot
@@_TheViewer_ he could’ve argued crime of passion 🤷♂️
The sister of the main family, she looks just like my ex. She had to move back to S.Korea when her work visa was up. Shoulda married her 🤷♂️
I saw the film as the the origin story for Joaquin Phoenix’s head injury in the joker. The sons story could be the prequel to the Joker…gets whacked in the head & starts laughing at inappropriate things, goes crazy.
