I like watching movies. Actually I love watching movies… ^^; I try to watch at least top box office movies so I can keep up with current trends. Last movie I enjoyed watching was, ‘Avengers: End Game’. Some people don’t like too much CGs (Computer Graphics), blowing things up, everywhere and anywhere… but I liked it.

Especially knowing that they’ve planned this Marvels series with 10 year plan and this movie, ‘Avengers: End Game’ was the final chapter to wrap every thing up from past 10 years made me to appreciate more about the whole Marvel series.

Speaking of movies, something amazing happened in movie industry last Sunday. For the first time in history of Academy award, foreign movie won the Best Movie for Oscar. That movie was ‘Parasite’ by Bong Joon-Ho from Korea. Korea? not K-pop but a movie? Who would’ve thought…

Director Bong also won 3 more awards! Original Script, Best Foreign Movie, and Best Director. Truly amazing…

Also Director Bong’s acceptance speech after he received Best Director award was memorable. He said when he was learning about film in school, there was a quote that he carved in his heart.

"The most personal is the most creative." – Martin Scorsese

This quote is true to everyone. God made each and every one of us in such an unique way that there’s no other person like ‘me’! and that’s what makes ‘me’ great!

Everyone tells each other that ‘You’ and ‘I’ are not good enough so we need to be ‘someone’ else. Not realizing ‘We’ are already unique and different from everyone else that we don’t need to pretend to be ‘someone’ else.

I’m not sure if Director Bong is a Christian but I hope he is and all of us should be reminded that I can be most creative when I am just ‘me’ in God…
