Dioramas stacking architecture from the movie Parasite. Architecture is a powerful tool in the film Parasite to illustrate the contrast and conflict between the rich and the poor. The film uses two main settings: the semi-basement apartment of the Kim family and the modern mansion of the Park family. These two spaces represent different worlds that collide and clash throughout the story. 1. The semi-basement apartment of the Kim family is a cramped, cluttered and dark space that reflects their precarious and hopeless situation. They live below street level, but still have access to a small window that lets in some sunlight and also exposes them to the noise and dirt of the outside world. They have to deal with flooding, fumigation, pests and lack of privacy. The apartment was built on a set that copied the details of real empty towns that were set to be demolished. 2. The modern mansion of the Park family is a spacious, sleek and bright space that reflects their wealth and privilege. They live on a hill, isolated from the rest of society, with a large window that offers them a panoramic view of their garden and beyond. They have access to comfort, security, technology and art. The mansion was also built on a set that was designed by production designer Lee Ha Jun with the help of an architect. It was inspired by modern Korean architecture and minimalism. Architecture also plays a role in creating suspense and symbolism in the film. For example, the stairs are used to show the vertical hierarchy between the classes, as well as to create tension and surprise in some scenes. The basement is used to hide secrets and reveal twists. The garden is used to contrast nature and artifice, as well as to stage a climactic showdown.
