Last episode of season 1! This week we're talking about the 2006 Korean movie The Host, directed by Bong Joon-ho, who you might have known through his Oscar-winning movie Parasite. This black comedy featured a monster kidnapping a man's daughter, and his attempts to rescue her. One of the highest-grossing South Korean films of all time, The Host was partly inspired by an incident in 2000 involving a Korean mortician dumping toxic chemicals down the drain, as ordered by their US military superiors. Listen in to find out more trivia about The Host!
Thank you so much for sticking around throughout this short debut season! Until season 2, you're not missing out by listening to this podcast :)

In this movie, Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) came across a magical remote that allows him to control his life, but it came with great consequences. Listen to find out what we would do if we have the remote control in the movie, and how we would have liked the movie to end instead 👀
