Youn Yuh-jung, the feisty grandmother in 'Minari', captured more than her grandson's heart.
She is the second Asian actress to win the best supporting actress award at Oscars, more than four decades after Japanese-born Miyoshi Umeki earned the trophy for 1957's 'Sayonara'.
Youn plays Soon-ja, a card-playing grandmom with a knack for swearing, who's moved from South Korea to join her daughter and stepson in his seemingly quixotic quest to trade dispiriting work in California for farming in Arkansas. Soon-ja and her initially wary grandson form an unlikely but loving bond.
Youn became an instant film star in South Korea with her 1971 debut 'Fire Woman'. At the peak of her career, she married popular singer Cho Young-nam and moved with him to the United States, where he performed at Billy Graham's church. Her American detour put her career on hold for nearly a decade, until she returned to South Korea, her marriage ended and she resumed acting.
The film isn't streaming on any platform.
