The Host is a 2006 South Korean film directed by Bong Joon-ho. It was released on July 27, 2006 and exceeded 6 million viewers on the morning of August 6, 2006. This made it the 8th most popular movie in South Korean cinematic history. As of September 10, 2006, this is the highest grossing South Korean film of all time, with its 12.5 million viewers beating the recent winner The King and the Clown which attracted 12.3 million people. This film was in part inspired by an incident in 2000 in which a mortician working for the U.S. military in Seoul dumped a large amount of formaldehyde down the drain. In addition to its environmental impact, this has added some antagonism against the United States.

Grade: 4/5 Ух, как корейцы научились снимать. Рад за них. «Хозяин» – картина, выполненная с учётом всех ингредиентов качественного развлекательного кино. В кинотеатре такое бы смотрелось на ура, на малом экране явно не то. Зрелищно.
