Disney+ original series “Moving” (2023) won the Grand Prize of the Blue Dragon Series Awards on Friday evening in the third edition of the Blue Dragon Film Awards’ spinoff specializing in shows made just for online streaming services.
The honor was given at the third Blue Dragon Series Awards, which took place at the Paradise City resort in Incheon on Friday evening. “Moving” was the first drama series to receive the Grand Prize at the awards ceremony. Last year’s winner was actor Song Hye-kyo who received the award for her role in Netflix original series “The Glory” (2022-23) and the awards ceremony did not have a Grand Prize category in its inaugural year.
“Moving” actors Lee Jung-ha and Go Young-jung each took home the Best New Male Actor and Best New Female Actor awards. “Moving” was nominated in seven categories in total, the highest for any work at this year’s awards.
“'Moving’ was difficult,” said the director of “Moving,” Park In-je, upon receiving the Grand Prize. “But I felt the joy of doing this work when my friend’s mother, who is suffering from depression, told me that she forgot all her sadness on the day that ‘Moving’ was released.”
“Moving” is a webtoon-based fantasy action series that revolves around a group of superheroes who lead ordinary lives and fight secretly to protect their loved ones. The series and featured actors have been sweeping local awards ceremonies, having won six awards at the fifth Asia Contents Awards & Global OTT Awards and three awards at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards.
