2010 Blue Dragon Film Awards (Korea) winners


On Friday, November 26, the 31st annual Blue Dragon Film Awards took place at the National Theatre in Seoul, South Korea. The hosts were actor Lee Bum Soo and actress Kim Hye Soo who was hosting it for her 12th consecutive year. The Best Picture prize went to Secret Reunion but oddly enough it did not pick up any other awards.  

Moss won three awards (Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director) as did I Saw the Devil (Cinematography, Lighting, Music). Housemaid, Cyrano Dating Agency and The Man From Nowhere each took two awards.

Yoon Jung-hee (Poetry) and Su Ae (Midnight FM) shared the award in the Actress category. Choi Seung-hyun (aka TOP) of Into the Fire on the other hand won two prizes himself - Best New Actor and the Popularity award which he shared with three others. As with many Asian actors, TOP began as a pop star.

The Blue Dragon Film Awards are presented by the controversial right-wing newspaper Sports Chosun.  Last year's Best Picture winner was Mother.
