1. [+603, -7] Wow ㅋㅋㅋ the son must've felt so happy. Imagine working as a staff having a foreign Korean American director talk about how amazing your father is without knowing that you're his son ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+532, -6] I assumed his son would be young but he's older than I thought

3. [+412, -10] Imagine your father being someone as important as Bong Joon Ho in the movie industry, he must be so proud

4. [+40, -0] Most people would go around telling everyone who their dad is but this son chose to not even use his last name in case he gets the wrong kind of attention for it ㅎㅎ

5. [+35, -0] He's working under the name 'Hyo Min' to avoid his father's spotlight ㅋㅋㅋㅋ yeah, well, the last name Bong is pretty uncommon ㅋㅋ

6. [+33, -0] Oh, I totally enjoyed 'To All the Boys I've Loved'. I thought it was cool seeing yakult and other talks about Korea in the movie. Didn't know she was the writer.

7. [+26, -1] So what does your father do? Oh, he's off to win an Oscar~

8. [+19, -0] I'm just now realizing that Director Bong is over 50 years old;; for a job that puts you under a lot of stress, he sure hasn't aged ㅋㅋ

9. [+17, -0] Bong Joon Ho's son looks just like him ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

10. [+14, -0] No wonder the characters in 'To All the Boys I've Loved' were drinking yakult, the writer is Korean

11. [+13, -0] Man... I didn't think Bong Joon Ho was even married

12. [+9, -0] What a special experience for both of them ㅎㅎ
