The Blue Dragon Film Awards (Korean청룡영화상; RRCheongnyong Yeonghwasang) is an annual awards ceremony that is presented by Sports Chosun (a sister brand of the Chosun Ilbo) for excellence in film in South Korea.[1]

The Blue Dragon Film Awards considers only blockbusters and popular movies of high artistic value released during the previous year. During the selection process, about forty movies that have made it to the final list are screened to the public for free. After the screening of each selection, the awards ceremony opens.[citation needed]

The Blue Dragon Film Awards and Grand Bell Awards are the most popular film awards in South Korea.[2]
