Korea Blue Dragon Awards 2004 (Cheongryong Award)

[hengcs]

The nomination list was announced on Nov 11 2004.
The winners will be announced on Nov 29 2004.

As I could not find a more complete compilation (either in English or Chinese), the following is the best I can do.

In fact, I even have to surf the web (for quite some time) for the corresponding English title (because often, the Chinese titles are NOT a direct translation) and their English names.
;)

There's a great article on Korean Cinema by Chuck Stephens in the latest issue of Film Comment, actually there's a whole mid-section devoted to it. Only part of it is available online but check out the magazine if you can.
