The pizzeria featured in the movie 'Parasite' is suddenly so popular that it ran out of dough.
8 min readTourists flock to pizzeria, while instant noodles sales surge.SEOUL, South Korea -- It's a slice of life you can really sink your teeth into.
That's changed, and Eom is both delighted and surprised at movie fans and reporters showing up at her store."As you can see, this neighborhood is a redevelopment zone. Director Bong said it was a perfect location for his film." Movie fans have begun paying homage to other site locations in the movie such as the mom and pop store supermarket and the long-dilapidated steps in an underdeveloped neighborhood of western Seoul, Ahyeon-dong. The tiny Pig Rice Supermarket is where the son of the Kim family drinks with a friend who offers him a tutoring job for the Parks' daughter.
"Each location has a symbolic meaning in the movie. It's great the locations are approachable," college student Yoon Seunghyun explained while visiting the landmarks to take pictures.
