 'This is me'..All-time scale → What is the only work you have considered inside humans?
Again this year, 'Different Fun' was held. It is the Blue Dragon Series Awards, which always receives surprising public attention by selecting novel works as candidates, but this year, it is especially amplifying curiosity with unpredictable award nominees.

Last year, works on the theme of 'School Violence' such as 'The Glory' and 'Weak Hero' were noticeable, but this year, there were many works that focused on the depth of mind that existed in each individual. The presence of works that delicately touch it with their hands, from the realistic inner side of the 'mask girl' and the sexless couple, which gave room for thought in the lookism, to the depression and panic of modern people, comforted viewers. In addition to this, from fantasy hero movies that boasted the scale of all time to works that conveyed accidental killing due to repression and consideration of 'real good and evil'. The nominees for the best drama award at the 3rd Blue Dragon Series Awards were 'Mask Girl', 'Moving', 'Murder Difficulty', 'LTNS', 'Morning Is Coming to the Psychiatric Ward' (in the order of the name of the work, Kanada).

Only one of these works can hold the glory of the trophy. While the masterpiece 'Casino', which showed Choi Min-sik's enthusiastic performance last year, has clearly won votes, attention is also being paid to which work will draw attention this year. Incheon Farada on the 19thThe 3rd Blue Dragon Series Awards (BSA), which will be held in Iscity, will deliver the honor of the award to a work that will cover last season. Among the outstanding works, attention is focused on the only work that will take the trophy.

▶'Mask girl'

It is the `Mask Girl' that captivated viewers with the life performance of everyone who is willing to retire. 'Mask Girl' is a story about Kim, an ordinary office worker with a appearance complex, who is caught up in an unintended incident while working as an Internet broadcaster BJ covering her face with a mask every night, a Netflix series about Kim's turbulent life. Ko Hyun-jung, Nana, and Lee Han-byeol drew favorable reviews from viewers by portraying realistically and desperately what happens when they play Kim Mom-mi of their ages, respectively. In particular, viewers' expectations are getting higher and higher thanks to the new face of Ko Hyun-jung, as well as the acting of Yeom Hye-ran and Ahn Jae-hong, who have never seen it before. As it ranked in Netflix's Global Top 10 in its second week of release, it is emerging as a prominent candidate thanks to its good performance on the global stage.

▶'Moving'

The momentum of 'Moving', which has heated up the past year more than ever, is etc. 'Moving', which spent astronomical production costs and wrote a new history of the birth of the nation's largest fantasy hero, boasted such a colorful lineup that no works followed in Korea. 'Moving' is a human action series about children living in the present with superpowers hidden and parents living in the past with sick secrets hidden. Many people even burst into tears thanks to the fantasy action as well as the codes of human, paternal love and motherhood in one work. It emerged as a masterpiece among the masterpieces as the growth story of Bong-seok (Lee Jung-ha) and Hee-soo (Go Yoon-jung) and the unique story of inter-Korean relations was mixed. As a result, the desire for the Prime Minister is growing.

▶'Murderers & Difficulties'

It was so refreshing that the words 'the atmosphere is crazy' were constantly pouring out. Based on the webtoon of the same name, 『Killer』 is a story about Lee Tang (Choi Woo-sik), an ordinary young man who kills people one after another after an accidental first murder, playing a game of endless pursuit and pursuit with a detective who relentlessly tracks him. Among them, it is also noteworthy that the atmosphere of the play has changed more and more dramatically since the appearance of Songchon (Lee Hee-jun). Thanks to the sophisticated release of similar but not similar murders and delicate considerations of perfect good and evil between Itang and Songchon, enthusiasts are also solid. Accordingly, the approval rating for the `murderer and difficulty' is also not easy.

▶'LTNS'

The reunion of the `Small Princess' team was truly welcome. Director Jeon Go-woon, Lee So-m, and Ahn Jae-hong's achievements include more than enthusiasts. 'LTNS' is an unpredictable and stimulating affair tracking activity that occurs when Woo-jin (Lee Som) and Samuel (Ahn Jae-hong), a couple whose relationship has become estranged due to a sad reality, chase after infidelity couples to make money. Even though attention was paid to the high-intensity love spirit that appeared in each episode, director Jeon Go-woon's elegant production, which delicately connects the emotional lines of the affair couple with those of Woo-jin and Samuel, surprised the viewers. Even his performance, which captures a wide range of aspects from struggling for life to being bold in front of his instincts, has led many to shout the award for best picture.

▶'Morning also comes to the psychiatric ward'

Many shed tears, and many sympathized. 'Morning Is Coming to the Psychiatric Ward' is a Netflix series about the world that Da-eun (Park Bo-young), a nurse who first works in the psychiatric ward, meets and the various stories of people who are heartbroken. It was praised for effectively narrowing the distance from the Department of Mental Health by bringing to the fore the pain of the mind that modern people are experiencing. In particular, the audience's understanding has been enhanced by expressing with visual effects that everyone appearing, from Daeun, played by Park Bo-young, Yoo Chan, played by Jang Dong-yoon, and Ko Yoon, played by Yeon Woo-jin, is suffering small or large mental pain. With careful production and realistic acting, it has become a life work for many.
