The 2023 Buil Film Awards winners list has been revaled at the 32nd edition of the prestigious Korean cinema award ceremony. Held at the Signiel Busan Grand Ballroom in Haeundae-gu, Busan, the event was solo-hosted by the South Korean actress Esom on October 5, 2023. Preceded by a starry Red Carpet event prior to the main show’s commencement, the ceremony was graced by some of the great names of the Korean cinema industry.
Kim Seon-ho, the much-loved K-drama star up until now, made his debut as a big screen star with the 2023 film The Childe, and so he was one of the biggest presences at the show. Alongside him, Lee Byung-hyun, K-pop singer-actor Doh Kyung-soo, Park Bo-young, Go Min-si and others also made it to the event. However, many nominated artists were also absent due to other schedules. Jeon Do-yeon and Byeon Woo-seok were two such actors to name a few.
Celebrating excellence in cinematic achievements, the award show was organised by the Busan-based daily ‘Busan Ilbo’ . Accolades were handed out for a total of 16 categories for Korean films released from August 11, 2023 to August 10, 2023. Networks MBC and Naver T live streamed the ceremony, with the main show commencing at 5.25 PM.
