Here is the translation of the text:

1. The state of Korean filmmakers is such a mess, it's no wonder there's nothing to regret even if it fails

2. It feels like 'The Truman Show'. The world seems strange

3. A lifetime achievement award...? It would be better if the national funding were invested in independent films

4. Why...? Why are they acting like this??? Are they collectively insane?

5. I feel sorry too and mourn, but it was a indeed crime...

6. Without public empathy like this, what kind of films do they expect to make?

7. "Kind person," ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ it's funny. They are really living in another world. This is the mindset of the film industry, no wonder Korean films are the way they are. I'll never watch Korean films again

8. Didn't you see when that adulterous couple got an awardㅋㅋㅋ I feel like the entire art industry in this country lacks moral sense, but they still pretend to be sensibleㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

9. They whined about a reduction in funding for the BIFF, and now they pull this kind of stuntㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ What a waste of funding

10. What a joke. You idiots, just go ahead and fail.
