The biggest night of cinema honours, the 92nd Academy Awards are here. The prestigious awards like every year were held at Dolby Theatre, Los Angeles on February 10. Oscars 2020 was as always a star-studded affair with who's who of Hollywood descending on the red carpet. A few big honours of the evening have been announced and it is a big night for South Korean film Parasite, which took home its first-ever Academy Award. This is the first win for South Korea as director Bong Joon Ho picked up the Oscar for best original screenplay. The film is creating history and if manages to bag the best picture honour, it will be the first foreign language feature to do so.

It was indeed a special moment for the director who took home big honour for the screenplay. In his acceptance speech, Parasite director said, "Writing a script is always such a lonely process. We never write to represent our countries, but this is the very first Oscar to South Korea." What was even more amazing than his speech though was his happiness as he looked at his Oscar trophy. A moment of Bong Joon Ho, smiling as he looks at his Oscar trophy is now going viral and it is indeed the sweetest. Check out the Twitter reactions here.
