If the character doesn't wait, does it still fit the trope? Also, The Jailbait Wait is about age-based waiting; is this an age-based wait?

  • The Jailbait Wait: Min says he plans on asking Da-hye out formally when she becomes a university student. Ki-woo starts a relationship with her anyway.

It should apply to Min, not Ki-woo. The line in the script is "I'm going to ask her out in two years, once she's in college" which reads like an age-based wait to me albeit no ages are officially spoken.

was the rock fake? It would explain how ki-woo survived getting beaned with it on the head and also why it floated in the water.

Hey, just to clarify - I thought what sets off Mr. Park's murder was him smelling Ki-taek and involuntarily revulsing, not smelling Geun-sae. It's been a while, but I recall him addressing and talking to Ki-taek before he stops and gets grossed out, which makes me think he smelled him and not Geun-sae. After all, at that point, Geun-sae tried to kill him and has been a pain in their ass for much of the movie.

Man, that sounds weird if you haven't watched the film.

I saw it as him smelling Geun-sae who apparently also has the "poor people" smell Mr Park dislikes.

See, I remember Ki-taek being very close to Mr. Park when he saves Mr. Park from getting stabbed.

^From the script I linked in another post: "Dong-Ik lifts Chung-Sook and searches underneath for the car keys. No longer the cool, poised CEO. He’s overcome with fear, panic. He rolls over Kun-Sae and finally locates the keys when — '''He smells something and frowns. It’s Kun-Sae’s body odor. He holds his nose at the awful smell. Ki-Tek notices.''' A fleeting moment, but it triggers something inside him. Ki-Tek picks up the TOY AXE from the ground and stalks Dong-Ik. "

I thought this was apparent in the movie itself as well.

Oh, I thought it was because Ki-taek was right next to him, and Ki-taek was what Mr. Park had been complaining about.

There was quite some distance between the two.

TV Tropes decided to break the URL by sticking its own website in front of it. https://pmcdeadline2.files.wordpress.com/2020/01/parasite-script.pdf/ says it's also 404'd.

Yeah, links in discussion pages have been borked for a while. I am personally just willing to fix it myself, haha

Thanks, Fast Eddie.

Anyway, my two cents - I'd say no, because the subtitled versions are really wide-spread by this point.
