It was released under the Genie Music and Stone Music Entertainment labels on 30 May 2019, the same day as the film's release and featured musical score composed by Jung Jae-il, who previously collaborated with Bong for Okja. The score for Parasite consists of "minimalist piano pieces, punctuated with light percussion", which sets the film's "tense atmosphere". Jung provided a baroque texture for the score. The score was mostly composed and recorded in computer. The score received positive critical response, praising Jung as critics opined that "the minimalist approach to the music, blended well with the theme and motive". Jung further won the Buil Film Award and Grand Bell Award for Best Music and further received various accolades. "Soju han jan", a track from the film was released as a single accompanying the album on the same date of its release. The album was released and published in the United States and Canada by Milan Records in October 2019 in digital and a CD release on December. From Wikipedia (
