One of the most important exchanges in Parasite could easily be missed on first viewing.

 

The Kim family are bundled around a table having dinner, discussing their wealthy new employers, the Parks.

 

“Even though she’s rich, she’s nice,” says Song Kang-ho’s Ki-taek between mouthfuls of noodles.

 

“She’s nice because she’s rich,” shoots back his wife.

Nonsense. Such a typical misunderstanding of human nature. Rich means we have the ability to address our problems and challenges, and it means not having to worry about money as much, at least in theory. I know alot of wealthy people. Most seem fairly unfulfilled. Money does not buy happiness at all. Ironically enough, spoke to one friend of mine who is worth over $200 million. He tells me he still worries about money. He worries about maintaining his fortune, his investments, etc. Bizarre, and a bit hard to understand for those of us who work for a living!
