READ // Sharon Choi in Variety

Having watched very few of this year's nominated movies or followed the run-up to the Oscars, the first time I saw Sharon Choi acting as Bong Joon-ho's translator was onstage when he won his first of four Oscars. I loved how she nodded as she listened to him speak in Korean, then turned to the microphone and seemingly effortlessly conveyed his thoughts in English. Apparently, the aspiring-filmmaker-and-translator turned down all other press requests but has written a lovely piece in Variety about her experiences over this awards season.
