Director's Cut Awards


The Director's Cut Awards is an annual awards ceremony for excellence in film in South Korea. It is presented by the Korea Film Director's Network, a group of approximately 300 Korean filmmakers. The KFDN selects winners in the Korean film industry in eight categories: Director, Actor, New Director, New Actor, Producer and Independent Film Director. It was launched in 1998 by film director Lee Hyun-seung with a membership of "young generation" directors in their twenties to forties.
The ceremony was temporarily discontinued after 2010 due to "internal issues" within the organization. It was resumed in 2014 and held concurrently with the Jecheon International Music and Film Festival.
