LOS ANGELES - Bong Joon-ho was on stage a lot on Sunday night , giving one acceptance speech after another as his film Parasite scooped up Oscars, including Best Picture. Beside him each time was a familiar face.
She has given the English translation of the director's speeches and interviews, through several red carpets and late-night TV appearances. Bong speaks English and will occasionally shift into the language for brief remarks -"I'm ready to drink tonight," he said toward the end of one of Sunday's speeches - but he generally seems to prefer leaving it to Choi.
Choi has been at Bong's side since May last year - when Parasite won the Palme d'Or, the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival in France - according to The Korea Herald, an English-language newspaper in South Korea. But Choi has ended up there anyway, thanks to the visibility that comes with critical success and awards domination: Parasite, after winning at Cannes, also nabbed Best Foreign Film at the Golden Globes, the Writers Guild Award for Original Screenplay and Best Ensemble at the Screen Actors Guild Awards.
