The Blue Dragon Series Awards are bringing back their third annual ceremony on Friday, July 19, 2024 at 8:30 PM KST. Hosted by the trusted team of TV personality Jun Hyun Moo and beloved actress and singer Im Yoon Ah, the prestigious South Korean awards ceremony hosted by Sports Chosun will be held at Paradise City in Incheon.
The event is expected to make way for a starry red carpet event before the live ceremony, providing easy broadcast access to domestic viewers via South Korean TV network KBS2. Following the arrival of a star-studded roster of attendees, the event will honor “excellence in OTT television” for series releasing from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2024. The nominations were also announced months ago.
Starting in 2022, this annual awards series will be hosted by the same MC duo for the third consecutive year. In addition to the main hosts of the night, several other prominent Korean celebrities gracing the evening will also step forward to present awards in various categories.
Previous reports also stated that We Dem Boyz, (G)I-DL, and Jay Park would take the stage as the evening’s performers.
