I was expecting and hoping Minari would be nominated in categories of 'supporting
actress' and possibly 'best picture award', but 6 nominations made me totally surprised
and that means to me Minari would be considered as one of the serious contenders winning coveted
'best picture award' in Oscar.
The local TV station was elated about one of Michigander, Steven Yeun(연상협) was nominated
as best actor award in Oscar and showed an interview with his previous teacher about him.
There was an article regarding him in Detroit Free Press as well.
Steven Yeun(37) is an established actor in the USA and he was on hit cable TV series like,
'The walking dead' and movie like '옥자(Okja, 봉준호), which I had a chance to watch.
I am not sure Minari would win the best picture award in Oscar, but it is real elated
news for well deserved 'THE RECOGNITION'. KJ

[출처: 중앙일보] [양성희의 시시각각] ‘미나리’ 그리고 윤여정
윤여정의 차기작은 역시 OTT인 애플TV플러스의 ‘파친코’다. 재미 한인 작가 이민진 원작으로 재일 한인 가족 3대의 이야기다. 윤여정·이민호·정은채 등이 출연한다. 이민진 작가는 최근 미국 MIT대에서 한 강연회에서 “2008년 첫 장편 『백만장자를 위한 공짜 음식』은 ‘아시아인 주인공 작품은 보고 싶어 하지 않는다’며 영화화를 거절당했었는데, 큰 변화가 일고 있다”며 “그간 미디어에서 아시아인은 일상적·체계적·의도적으로 지워졌고, 그 결과 아시아인들은 스스로를 중요한 존재로 여길 수 없었다”고 말했다. 『백만장자…』은 넷플릭스 오리지널 시리즈로 제작 중이다.

[출처: 중앙일보] "내가 늙었단거냐" 윤여정 쉬운 영어에 세계가 빵 터졌다
전 한국에서 굉장히 오랫동안 연기를 해 왔습니다. 근데 이번 영화는 하기 싫었습니다. 독립 영화라는 걸 알았거든요. 그 말은 즉 제가 고생할 거라는 뜻이죠.”(I’ve been in this business for such a long time in Korea.
I didn't wanna do it. Because I knew this was going to be an independent movie.
Which means I'm going to suffer from all the things.)
I finally saw the movie, "미나리". It made me think about a few things.
The movie gave me a lot to write about us, Korean Americans, and also myself.
Before I forget, as I have done so many times before,
I hope I write my thoughts about the movie very soon.
A decision to write and then gradually forget it...
I have not even decided if I should write it in Korean or English. Let me think...
