He is truly a storyteller, not only in his movies but in interviews as well !
Please, dont edit out the part where the translator speaks because that’s when we can hear the audience’s response to whatever Bong has said.

The interviwer refers to Bong's grandfather Park Tae-won as a modernist writer exactly. As a Korean I have been admiring him more than any other Korean writers. His details in well-crafted Korean language are being succeeded by his grandson.
서로 다른 영화도 하나의 작품처럼 느껴질 정도로 공통점을 발견하고, 반복적으로 교차해서 보고 또 봤던 봉준호의 이야기가 전세계에 이리 교본이 될 줄 몰랐다. 이 이야기라면 어딜 가든 3시간 썰을 풀 수 있음 봉준호가 한국인에게 준 선물은 어느 누굴 만나든 오프닝을 열어제낄 화두를 줬다는거임

Thanks Bafta for this great indepth interview. While i appreciate the great job the interpretor did on all interviews, i have a hard time understanding why people are so up in arms about editing out the translations part and replaced it with subtitles. The purpose of this interview is to hears the words of the director, not the translation process itself. Based on the length of the video , feel that subtitles was the most efficient way to edit it

영국발 영상을 자막없이 보니까 너무 쾌적하고 좋습니다. 1인치 장벽이 없다는게 이렇게 행복한거였네요. 알려주셔서 감사합니다. 감독님 (So relaxed watching one-hour long video from UK that's without the subtitle, thanks to Director Bong)
What a great movie full of comedy, suspense, love and human tragedy. I’ve seen it this past weekend and can’t wait to buy its CD. Definitely a two thumbs up!
You are Best Director.

one day she'll be the one being interviewed. but in this video she is not. there's no need for us to hear an answer from bong that we can't understand and then hear the translation when it's so much easier for the viewer to have this be a classic interview with interviewee and interviewer. if we keep having to wait for sharon to translate, we lose the way bong says it because we'd be ignoring his voice. it would be like cutting bong out of the interview.

First talked about his grandfather which he is embarrassed to talk about, second showing a film that is in Cantonese, what a blunder of BAFTA. How Bon Joon-ho was able to keep his cool I don't know, but he was noticeably a bit flabbergasted and irritated about the question of his grandfather though.

Yes he must have been very surprised by the happening of Cantonese dubbed film, but this cool person didn't mention it at all. About his grandfather, as I guess they must have talked about the topics to discuss before the session, I don't think he was embarrassed by the question, he talked about it in more cautious manner though. In the past under the authoritarian regime, it was really a taboo to mention about the artists gone to North Korea. But nowadays, Korean society gets focusing more on their artistic values regardless of their ideological stances. His grandfather Park Tae-Won is really a great writer representing the trend of modernism and intellectualism in Korea in 1930s.
