'Parasite' director slams police, S. Korean media over star's death
Oscar-winning "Parasite" filmmaker Bong Joon-ho criticises South Korean police and media for their purported role in late actor Lee Sun-kyun's suicide, calling for an official enquiry.
Lee, best known globally for his starring role in Bong's "Parasite", was found dead in a car in Seoul last month, after a two-month police investigation over suspected drug use.
Later, police were accused of leaking confidential details of their probe, triggering frenzied mainstream media coverage and damaging social media content.
