Analysis
The film showcases the societal ups and downs. Who is the real parasite? The director left it to the viewers to guess the real parasite. The rich are dependent on the poor and vice versa. Most of the economically backward people won’t spoil the lives of the people, who are finding it hard to run a life, like them. But, Kim’s family is different from them and they utilize every opportunity to pull others’ legs. Park’s family didn’t do anything wrong, but they don’t care about others and live their life happily. The basic concept of the film is that everyone is selfish. The cinematography, music and production values are good. The screenplay is interesting with lots of unexpected twists and turns.
