However, the husband, who had become a widower over the night, has no interest in this peace offering, striking Ki-woo with the rock twice.
It is also one that Kim Ki-woo attempts to diffuse himself, bringing the "metaphorical" rock that's brought his family good fortune down to Geun-sae as a gesture of peace. While the storm appears to have cleared the way for a fun birthday bash, what the Parks do not know is that lurking beneath their basement is a rage they can't possibly fathom. When they get there, however, the previous night's events catch up to them. Displaced and sent to the local gymnasium for shelter, the Kims are brutally awakened by invitations to an impromptu Park party, which they are bullied into attending. The victorious Kims race out of the house and all the way back down to their semi-basement, which has incidentally been flooded by a ferocious storm. Eventually, the Kims overpower the married couple, fatally injuring Moon-gwang and locking her husband back in the basement. Upon figuring out the truth about Moon-gwang, the Kims accidentally expose themselves as con artists and a ferocious fight breaks out between the two families. Their night takes a frantic turn, however, once the former maid, Moon-gwang, returns, claiming that she had been ushered out of the house so quickly that she had left something behind: her husband, Geun-sae, who has been hiding in a bomb shelter beneath the house for years. When the Parks go out on a camping trip, the Kims swarm the empty mansion to party in style. Parasite ensures, however, that they do not get to enjoy their good fortune for long. What Happens in Parasite's EndingĪfter getting rid of the home's previous housekeeper through immoral means, the Kims' mother Chung-sook is brought on as a replacement and becomes the final member of the family to con their way into employment at the Park residence during an economic drought. Through this storm of treachery and deception, Bong Joon-ho is able to craft a dark and resilient tale of class struggles like no other. Ignited by a sudden and wicked twist of fate, these important socioeconomic factors come clashing together during the film's final stretch.

All that changes when the family's son Ki-woo ( Train to Busan's Woo-sik Choi) is given the opportunity to replace his friend as the English tutor to the daughter of a very wealthy - and gullible - family, the Parks. Tucked away in their small semi-basement apartment, they make ends meet by tucking in the corners of pizza boxes as freelance hands for hire. Life, at the beginning of Parasite, does not come easy for the Kim family.
The critical reception is due, in part, to how Parasitecomes to a close, and what its repercussions mean for its swindling Kim family. Parasite, Bong Joon-ho's thrilling, socially significant dark comedy, starts out as a swashbuckling and humorous romp of the poor outsmarting the rich, but takes a sudden and violent dive off the deep end in its terrifying finale - what exactly does this ending mean, and what's in store for the Kim family? Bong Joon-ho's followup to his 2017 climate change adventure film Okja, the movie stars the director's regular collaborator Kang-ho Song and has been a frontrunner in the Oscars race since its release last November.
