Park So-dam as Ki-Jung from Bong Joon-ho's suspense-thriller Parasite (2019)

Summary Although Parasite is widely regarded as one of the most successful standalone South Korean movies of all time, an unconnected 2023 film is actually the perfect follow-up. Bong Joon-ho's acclaimed suspense-thriller won the 2020 Oscar for Best Picture, becoming the first foreign-language film to do so and reinforcing South Korea's prominence on the global stage.

At the beginning of the film, Sleep focuses on its two primary characters, Soo-jin and Hyeon-soo. Eventually, audiences soon discover that there is someone else involved in this mystery. As the story unfolds, the narrative introduces a supernatural element, when a shaman reveals that Hyeon-soo's sleepwalking is caused by possession, as revenge by their deceased neighbor. This nightmarish revelation transforms a darkly-comedic domestic drama into a ghostly revenge story about possession.

Bong's critical approval and endorsement of the film could mean great things for Jason Yu in the future, potentially catapulting Yu into the mainstream.
