‘Parasite: The Gray’ Receives Global Acclaim for its Unique Storytelling and Philosophical Messages

The Netflix series ‘Parasite: The Gray,’ directed by Bong Joon-ho, continues to receive worldwide acclaim. The series tells the story of ‘The Gray,’ a specialized team dedicated to stopping parasitic organisms that infect humans and expand their power, and the story of ‘Soo-in,’ a human who becomes a symbiote with the parasites.

Renowned Japanese game developer and representative of “Kojima Productions,” Hideo Kojima, praised ‘Parasite: The Gray’ as a series that explores the true potential of symbiosis, stating, “In an era of division and conflict, modern people can only become parasites in their isolation. This series presents a different possibility of true symbiosis, where violence and slaughter lead to the salvation offered by the beloved ‘right hand’.”

Kojima also commended director Bong Joon-ho, stating, “‘Parasite: The Gray,’ produced by Bong Joon-ho, a genius director from South Korea who has absorbed and digested Japanese content, is not about coexistence or mutual struggle. It is the first step towards a new symbiosis in the entertainment industry.”

Japanese manga artist Oku Hiroya, famous for works such as ‘Gantz’ and ‘Inuyashiki,’ also praised the understanding of the original work and stated, “It is difficult to adapt Japanese manga directly in the United States due to cultural differences, but Korea, surprisingly, shares a similar culture, making localization successful.”

‘Parasite: The Gray’ presents a unique and philosophical narrative, combining original and remarkable planning with advanced technology. With over 25 million copies sold worldwide, ‘Parasite,’ based on the manga by Hitoshi Iwaaki, has gained global popularity.

Director Bong Joon-ho’s imaginative perspective and the fresh lineup of actors such as Jun Sun Woo, Gu Gyo Hwan, Chung Jeong Hyun, Kwon Hae Hyo, and Kim In Kwon have raised expectations for the series, which expands the world of the original ‘Parasite’ that was well-loved worldwide. The series is currently available for streaming on Netflix.
