"Burning," the latest movie from award-winning South Korean filmmaker Lee Chang-dong, won best picture at the 55th annual Daejong Film Awards on Monday.

Lee's first feature in eight years, "Burning," starring Yoo Ah-in, Steven Yeun and Jeon Jong-seo, depicts the insecurity, helplessness and anger of young Korean people through the story of a part-time deliveryman and aspiring novelist, and two of his friends.

Premiering in the main competition section of the 71st Cannes Film Festival, the film won the Fipresci International Critics' Prize for best film in the category.

 Jang Joon-hwan won best director for "1987: When the Day Comes," a local box office hit about historical nationwide protests that led to the eventual overthrow of the military-backed government in June 1987. The historical epic also won the best planning award.

Lee Seong-min and Hwang Jung-min shared best actor for director Yoon Jong-bin's political thriller "The Spy Gone North," while best actress went to Na Moon-hee of "I Can Speak."

   "Microhabitat" earned its writer-director Jeon Go-woon best screenplay and best rookie director.

"Believer" landed best supporting actor and actress awards for its co-stars Kim Joo-hyuk and Jin Seo-yeon.

As South Korea's equivalent of the Academy Awards, the Daejong Film Awards were launched in 1962 to boost the quality of Korean films and to support the industry.
