‘Minari’ Star Steven Yeun Could Become First Asian American Best Actor Nominee (EXCLUSIVE)

Along with Yeun, co-star Yeri Han will also campaign for best actress, while his cast mates Alan S. Kim, Will Patton and Yuh-Jung Youn will look for consideration in the supporting categories.

Yeun’s performance as Jacob, a Korean father who brings his family to start a farm in the 1980s, has been critically acclaimed after screening at the Sundance and Middleburg film festivals, where it won the audience awards at both. He generated awards buzz in 2018 for the South Korean film “Burning,” for which he won the LAFCA award for best supporting actor.

It breaks my heart he wasn't awarded for the incredible work he did in Burning. Easily one of the best films in Korean cinema . And easily the best film of 2018.

Way to go Glenn!

The trailer makes me cry. So excited to see the film. But WHAT WHAT Not even a win, first Asian American NOMINEE? F the Academy.

Go on TheAcademy you can do it

ReaganGomez Congrats to him, but don't people feel shame typing headlines like that these days? Like, legit, y'all should cringe even realizing shit like this. 'Holy hell we made it to 2020 ignoring entire groups of talented people in every field!'
