About an hour into the ceremony, Troye Sivan posted the phrase "BONGHIVE" along with his photo.


This phrase was a popular hashtag on social networking services (SNS) Twitter and Instagram when Parasite was introduced at last year's Cannes Film Festival.


The word combines director Bong Joon-ho's "BONG" and "HIVE," meaning a beehive, referring to the passionate fans of director Bong like bees inside a hive.
