Han Jin-won discusses how a freelance research gig morphed into an Oscar-nominated screenwriting credit
is the big surprise of awards season 2020. The Neon film's unexpected journey from Seoul to Cannes to Oscars favorite has been especially surreal for its 35-year-old co-writer, Han Jin-won, who made his screenwriting debut on the project and now is nominated alongside Bong for best original screenplay.
My first assignment was doing research on the possible occupations that these characters would have — exploring the lives of domestic workers, tutors and drivers here in Seoul. I did many interviews and recorded everything. Sometimes [Bong] would ask me to explore different upper-class or working-class areas of Seoul, and I would take photos, collect details and note my impressions.We would meet near his house or at a coffee shop in the city.
