Bong received the Sydney Film Prize on Sunday, after winning the prestigious Palme d'Or at Cannes last month.

"Parasite has an outrageous disregard for genre conventions -- it is tender and brutal; beautiful and harsh; funny and tragic and a masterwork in its exploration of class", Jury president John Maynard said.

"Parasite" will be released in Australia on June 27.
