'Adorable, I am crying': Sandra Oh wins Golden Globe, her parents' reaction to her speech is winning million hearts

The night of the Golden Globes clearly belonged to actor Sandra Oh, who scripted history at the Golden Globes 2019 as she became the first Asian woman to host the prime award show and win a trophy. In her speech, she thanked the team at BBC America, her personal team and the "incredible cast" of the show. The actor then went on to thank her parents "Mostly there are two people here tonight that I am so grateful that they are here with me. I'd like to thank my mother, my father," Oh said before stepping aside from the mic to bow and thank them in Korean. However, it was her parent’s reaction that won many hearts on social media. While her father bowed back, he along with his wife then went on to give a standing ovation to her.
