On December 8, the '41st Annual Blue Dragon Film Awards' released an official statement, announcing the postponement of this year's awards ceremony. 

"The '41st Blue Dragon Film Awards', originally scheduled to take place on December 11, has been postponed until some time in early 2021 due to the resurgence of COVID19," the statement read. 

The ceremony came to the conclusion based on the severe rise of COVID19 cases throughout Korea in the past month, prioritizing the health and safety of the stars, film makers, and film industry personnel.

This is a very responsible action to take for an award ceremony... I hope they can do something online, that way the actors and actresses can get their awards without to much delayed...
