The Grand Bell Awards (Korean: 대종상 영화제; RR: Daejongsang Yeonghwajae), also known as the Daejong Film Awards, is an awards ceremony presented annually by The Motion Pictures Association of Korea for excellence in film in South Korea.[1][2]

The Grand Bell Awards retains prestige as the oldest continuous film awards held in South Korea, and has been called the Korean equivalent of the American Academy Awards.[3][4][5]

History

[edit]

The ceremony has been hosted by the Ministry of Culture and Information since 1962. The awards ceased for a couple years beginning in 1969, but were revived in 1972 after the establishment of the Korea Motion Picture Promotion Association, in an effort to stimulate the then-stagnant film industry.[6]

The 59th edition of the award ceremony was co-hosted with the Gyeonggi Arts Center for the first time at the Gyeonggi Arts Center Grand Theater and Convention Hall on 15 November 2023. Cha In-pyo and Jang Do-yeon were master of ceremonies for the award night.[7]

In December 2023, the Federation of Korean Filmmakers, which hosted the Awards, was declared bankrupt by the Seoul Bankruptcy Court.[8] The sale of the Daejong Film Festival trademark rights was announced in November 2024. The future of the Grand Bell Awards is unclear.
