Human thinking determines the superstructure

The rich are simply easy to be deceived and are still getting richer and richer. The poor are very smart and can only be parasites of the rich.

The family at the bottom thought they could turn around after finding a good job. The one who stole it was never his own. The male protagonist even thought of marrying his eldest daughter. Seeing this, he thought it was ridiculous. How can a lie last a lifetime, but fine. Isn't that the case in our lives too? A teacher of criminal psychology expressed a view that when most people in our nation do what they do, they always have no plan for the future, that is to say, they have no overall awareness. For example, the houses built in the 1990s are not Parking lots, because people didn't expect the future development at all. We watch movies and think these people are stupid from God's perspective, but isn't this a reflection of reality? Each of us may have been caught in such a situation, and we can only temporarily appease the present, paralyzing self-comfort or even fantasize that this will definitely get better and better, but it is ridiculous to jump out and see.

Commercial films always make people think for a long time.

The poster of this film is really amazing. The covered eyes make people shudder and have infinite reverie about the movie.

Parasite quotes

  • Ki-taek: [message to Ki-woo] Perhaps you, if no one else, will be able to read this. You were a Scout, so I'm writing this just in case. Have your injuries healed? I'm sure your mother is plenty healthy. I'm doing fine in here. Though thinking of Ki-jung makes me cry. Even now, what happened that day doesn't seem real. It feels like a dream, and yet it doesn't. That day as I went out the gate, I suddenly knew where I needed to go. A house where such a grisly thing took place would surely not be easy to sell. I've struggled to hold on in this empty house. Still, thanks to the house being empty - what was her name, Moon-gwang? - I was able to give her a proper send off. I hear treeside burials are trendy. So hell, I did my best. Those real estate sharks sure are clever. They duped some people who had just arrived in Korea and managed to sell the house. With the parents working and the kids attending school, the family is usually out. But the damned housekeeper stays here 24 hours a day. Each time I go upstairs, I take my life into my hands. And it turns out Germans eat more than just sausage and beer. What a relief. Passing the time down here, everything starts to go hazy. Today at least, I was able to write you this letter. If I send out the letter this way every night, maybe someday you'll see it. So long.

  • Kim Ki-woo: [narrates] Opening my eyes for the first time in a month, I saw a detective who looked nothing like a detective. Then the doctor who looked nothing like a doctor spoke. Even when I heard how much Ki-jung bled that day... even when I heard the words "forgery", "trespassing", "foul play", "murder", and that we were lucky to get away with probation... even when I finally got to see Ki-jung's face, I kept laughing. Though when I went back and watched the news reports, I didn't laugh.
