The movie’Minari’, starring Yoon Yeo-jung as a supporting actor, won the Best Foreign Language Film Award at Golden Globe, one of the two major film festivals in the United States.
However, as this film is classified as a foreign language film that cannot be awarded a main award such as the Best Supporting Actress, there is a controversy over the rules of the organizers themselves.
Kang Yoo-jeong, professor of Kangnam University, said in an interview with TBS’Kim Eo-jun’s News Factory’ on the 2nd, “There is a debate following this work (overseas).” “It’s not like that, but the American film and media’s treatment of this film is controversial.
Professor Kang said, “Since there are many foreign languages, the indifference of classifying it as a foreign language movie award itself shows the discrimination deeply established in the bones of Golden Globe.” “It has been ignored at all.”
He also strongly criticized, saying, “There is an official campaign to stop hate crimes against Asians on the official Golden Globe account now,” he said.
