The highly acclaimed film earned Best new Actress for the actress at both the Blue Dragon Awards as well as the Daejeong Film Awards that year.

The film received a total of 10 Blue Dragon nominations, but ended up winning only one award. This is director Woo Min-ho s second Best Picture award following the 2016 political crime-action film Inside Men. The Man Standing Next, the national contender for the 93rd Academy Awards, failed to make the shortlist of 15 films.
