The 98th Academy Awards will be broadcast live exclusively on OCN.
According to OCN on the 4th, OCN will broadcast the 98th Academy Awards at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, LA, at 8 a.m. on the 16th (7 p.m. local time) live on TV.
At the 98th Academy Awards, a number of outstanding and topical works such as "Cinus: Sinners," which set the record for the most nominations ever, "One Battle After Another," "Frankenstein," "Marty Supreme," "Sentimental Value," "Bugonia" and "K-Pop Demon Hunters" were nominated, raising interest in the results of this year's awards.
Among them, 16 nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Screenplay, are drawing attention to the results of Ryan Coogler's "Cinus: Sinners," which broke the previous record (14 nominations) held by "Eve's Everything" and "Titanic" in 28 years and became the most nominated work ever. Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another," which won six gold medals at the British Academy Awards and was nominated for 13 categories, is also considered a strong competition and heralds a fierce two-way race. On top of that, works with outstanding cinematic quality and buzz, including Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Joshua Sharpie's Marty Supreme, Joakim Trier's Sentimental Value, and Chloe Zhao's Hamnet, which were nominated in eight categories, are following it, heralding a fiercer Oscar race than ever.
In particular, K-content's progress at the 98th Academy Awards is also eye-catching. The Hollywood remake of the 2003 film "Protect the Earth," starring Jang Joon-hwan and Shin Ha-kyun, and "Bugonia," starring Jorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone, who drew attention for their global project on planning and production of CJ ENM, have been nominated for Best Picture, Best Actress, Best Music, and Best Adapted Screenplay, drawing keen attention from domestic movie fans and officials. In addition, "K-Pop Demon Hunters," which achieved global syndrome by sweeping box office hits and awards at various film festivals, also set a record as the first K-pop to be nominated for Best Animated Feature and Best Subject, and was nominated for an Academy Award. Along with "I Lied To You" from "Cinus: Sinners," another candidate film, "I Lied To You," the results of "Golden" and the Academy's theme song stage will also focus the attention of "Kedeheon" fans around the world.
Following the 97th Academy Awards, the 98th Academy Awards will be hosted by American comedian Conan O'Brien. Not only his pleasant and witty remarks at the last awards ceremony, but also his unconventional performances such as a parody of "Substance" received a hot response, raising questions about his performance at the awards ceremony. In OCN TV's exclusive live broadcast, film critic Lee Dong-jin, broadcaster and interpreter Ahn Hyun-mo, and pop columnist Kim Tae-hoon were confirmed as MCs. The three, who have worked together for a long time as live commentators at the Academy Awards, are expected to show perfect chemistry with the luxury host.
The 98th Academy Awards, the top film festival that is drawing keen attention with K content's nomination and candidates and works that are expected to compete more fiercely than ever, will be broadcast live on domestic TV at 8 a.m. on the 16th on OCN. You can also watch live on the OCN channel in TVING.
