Parasite film
After the president complained about the South Korean film's Oscar win, she tweeted, "I’m more upset that a parasite won the White House."
Neon, the U.S. distributor of the South Korean smash, suggested the president's real issue with the movie stemmed from its use of subtitles.
"I thought it was best foreign film," the president said of the film that won the Academy's top honor.
"I think I was born to receive an Oscar,” said 10-year-old actor Jung Hyeon-jun in the adorable video.
