Bong Joon Ho

I view myself as a genre film director. I do make genre films, but I don't like to follow the conventional codes for genre films. I try to convey messages about society through these broken codes, and this time I'm very pleased indeed to have been able to make the film with these fabulous actors. We have all these very peculiar stories which I love and which are portrayed by the various actors. I think we've obtained a very, very satisfying result and I'd like to thank all the actors up here with me.
