(Topstar News, reporter Oh Seorin) The “Blue Dragon Film Awards” is facing criticism.
On October 29, the “45th Blue Dragon Film Awards” was held at the KBS Hall in Yeouido, Yeongdeungpo District, Seoul, with many stars attending to light up the event.
The most attention on the day was focused on whether actor Jung Woo Sung, who was recently embroiled in an extramarital child scandal, would attend the event. Jung Woo Sung did attend the ceremony and took the stage with Hwang Jung Min to present the “Most Popular Audience Award.”
(…)
However, while Jung Woo Sung was given time on the official stage to explain his scandal, there was no separate moment to pay tribute to the late actress Kim Sook Mi, who passed away last month. Despite Kim Sook Mi being a beloved actress with a long and successful career, there was no mention of her or any tribute made during the event.
As viewers watched the live broadcast of the “45th Blue Dragon Film Awards,” many netizens criticized: “There are so many people working hard, but those who shine are forever different,” “This is so bizarre,” “Why is there no tribute to a national actress like Kim Sook Mi?”, “Cancel this,” “Has the tradition of giving Lifetime Achievement Awards to senior actors disappeared?” “This is why the film industry is collapsing.”

4. Not even a tribute to Kim Sook Mi? ㅠㅠ I’m so disappointed.
5. It’s dirty.
6. Actors who committed suicide due to scandals, like Lee Sun-kyun, get special treatmentㅋㅋㅋㅋ
7. Look at who they erase and who they give the microphone to. They’re all bastards.
8. It’s really vulgar.
How can they say “love Korean films” while acting like this?
They should at least become decent people first.
9. This is exactly their level.
10. They buy buildings, live like new nobles, get high on pleasure, and even if they cause social controversy, their cartel still cheers them on.
