"The Films of Bong Joon-ho is the first single-authored, book-length study of the
world-renowned Korean director who is known for his unique construction of genre films.
Although his films enjoy tremendous transnational appeal globally, they cannot be
fully appreciated without contextualizing them within the concrete local realities
from which they were conceived and produced. Lee provides a detailed account of Korean
contemporary cultural and political history that is critical to a full appreciation
of Bong's oeuvre. The book accomplish this in part by drawing on both Korean and English
scholarly references, bringing together different perspectives in viewing and interpreting
Bong's cinematic arts. Including discussion of The Host, Snowpiercer, Parasite and
many others, the aesthetics and the cinematic in Bong's unique genre films are firmly
situated within the history and politics of his time"
