I am Korean and quite fluent in English and I find the translator did a wonderful job. Park Chan Wook is one of the most credible and talented filmmaker alive today.

[@chageun788]

박찬욱 목소리만 있는 영상은 없겠죠?

[@jack8video]

As an American i’d say it’s a shame that foreign films and directors aren’t all that widespread here. Park Chan Wook is a must see director among the likes of Scorsese and Tarantino. I hope his films get the notoriety they deserve in light of his passing, truly a legend if there ever was one.

[@Alezandr]

That Translator is amazing. He's so quick and precise.

[@nom928]

Agreed. I've heard Korean-American UFC translators and they're very slow/inaccurate/inept by comparison. It must be cuz Park has such a close working relationship with Jung.

[@vishalrana6939]

that guys been with him since Thirst (as far as i know it could be longer!)

[@miaytuxa]

I am not a korean speaker and I swear I wanst even 30 seconds into the video than I ran to read the comments in search of one like this

[@MrEvangrapher]

but i dont get why didn't Mr.Park learn English.

[@haemaincinema6331]

@@MrEvangrapher perhaps because he's not British, American, nor Austrailian

34:26 What a very impressive explanation. How you ask questions is the most important key to make your excellent plot.

Despite being a movie with amazing quality and full of intellectual fun, It's incredibly lesser-known.

[@boltmarksman488]

Park Chan wook is like Edgar Wright but with opposite genres.

[@15awesomehighfive]

How? Could you expand on that?

[@PauLtus_B]

Very precise, loads of set up and pay off.
Something like that.

[@nikhilmishra5009]

this is a comment I never thought I needed but totally did

[@davidle4936]

Fun fact: Park Chan-wook frequent DP, Chung Chung-hoon, has worked with Edgar Wright in his latest film, Last Night in Soho!

[@mr.phillips]

Great lecture. Honestly though, it'd be better to just put the translator's voice on top of Park's. That or just put subtitles. It's kind of bloated.

[@Malachism]

this is true. i think there's a mix of people in the audience though so it's needed. though editing could fix this. but ohwell. that translator is on point

[@ranjuck]

Onnu podo

[@cemaldindar771]

One of the most overrated director of all time! Oldboy is just overrated!

[@flynnjaman]

How?

[@kavalisaidaiah1200]

I dont agree.All of his films are great
